Help with Trello Butler - Renaming

Question

Hey all,

When I run the following command:

when an item is added to checklist "Action Items", convert the item to a linked card at the top of list "Inbox PlaceHolder" using pattern "[{cardname} - {triggercardname}]({cardlink})", and link the cards together

It renames the checklist Item, but not the card.  Any ideas?

@Jedidiah Wallace you can achieve what you want with this Trellinator function:

You can run it in Google Apps Script:

or via our BenkoBot platform as a "Listener":

I made this mistake before. The pattern applies to the name

After creating a card, the variables above preceded by  new({newcardname}, {newcardlink}, etc) refer to the new card (not all variables may be available).

So you need a find and a rename of the card name
