Automate dated lists to be created weekly with the day, date, month and year.

Ankiah Kirkhoff

Every Sunday at 10pm, I want dated lists created for the entire week in the following format - Monday, 22 March 2021.

It needs to be Monday - Sunday every week.

The previous weeks days should then be deleted and any cards still left in those list should be moved back to the Backlog list. 

How can I do that?

Hi @Ankiah Kirkhoff - Thanks for reaching out to the community! You should be able to create those lists in the format you want by using a combination of Trello's Butler date variables and arithmetics with a calendar rule:

However as you'll always be referencing 7 days in a week, it might be easier to simply name all your cards with static names eg Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday etc and then have a calendar rule that goes through each list every Sunday at 10pm, and moves all the cards(if there are any) over to your 'backlogs' list. The rule will look something like this: https://share.getcloudapp.com/llu5mrb7

Let us know how you go with setting that up.
