Why can't I use dropdown custom fields with the Dashcard power-up tool?

Chloé Perceval

Hi,

I use the dashcard power-up to count cards from a Trello board.

One of the custom fields on this board is a drop down field named "publication month". It allows me to see when projects are published throughout the year.

However I cannot use the dashcard power-up to track this, since the only custom fields I can select in my dashcard are the checkbox ones (see screenshot).

Is there any reason for this? Is there a way to have my other custom fields show up on the dashcard?

Thanks a lot,

Chloé

@Chloé Perceval welcome to the community!

Does the board Collections - Editorial Calendar has "publication month" customfield?

if you add a new custom Dashcard filter do you see the "publication month" customfield option?

Hi!

Yes, it does (it's a dropdown though, not a list, see screenshot).

And no, if I add a new dashcard I can only see the checkbox custom fields, so not this one. Screenshot 2023-06-26 at 13.23.06.png

What I understand is that only CF of type text can be used in Dashcards.

@Chloé Perceval I tried to replicate this but I am unable to. The Dashcard allows me too add dropdown:

I would suggest checking with Trello Support on this.

Oh wow that's interesting, thanks for trying to replicate! I'll see if Trello support can help me here.
