Remove Partial Card Title When Moving to New List

Brett McPherson

Hey everyone! I'm trying to create a Butler rule that says: When a card is moved to a certain list, remove "Appt" from the card title. I see a Butler rule that shows how to add to a title, but not remove from a title.  Any help in this is appreciated. Thanks!

Hello @Brett McPherson 

You can do this using wildcards in the rule.

For example, if you had a card named "Appt This is the name" and, after moving to the list called 'Done', you wanted the card to be called "This is the name of the moved card", the rule would be:

when a card with a name containing "Appt {*}" is moved into list "Done", rename the card to "{wildcard1} of the moved card"

The text found in the first wildcard search in the Trigger is referenced numerically in the Action.

Read the Pattern Matching and Wildcard page for more information on how to use wildcards.
