How can I set date custom fields to automatically display a color code depending on the date status? The goal is to create a custom date field that will display as pink or red (or another color) when overdue in a similar way to how due dates show up pink or red when overdue.
Hi @[deleted] ,
You can't change the color of a custom field, but you can change the color of the card based on a date field.
You can check details here (look for configuring card colors)- https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/customize-cards/
You can also check if there is an app in the Markeplace that could address your use case: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/
Thanks for the answer, but these instructions appear to be for Jira. Is there a way to change the color of a card based on a custom date field in Trello?
Oops, sorry Jacob, you're right.
It seems that it's not possible to fully customize this with Trello. This post covers a similar question:

And this article describes the color changes and alerts in Trello based on due dates:

(Now you can also set due dates reminder at these intervals, if it helps:
If you don't need all the advanced capabilities of custom fields (butler integration), you could try Amazing Fields. (https://trello.com/power-ups/60e068efb294647187bbe4f5) It allows customizing the display of dates based upon various rules.
