How to: When new card is created, move to position 2 on the list.

Question

I have template cards at the top of all of my lists on a board and I need new cards added to the "top" of the list when created. However, I need the template cards to stay at the very top. Is it possible to move new cards to the second position at the top of a list when created?

You can do this by "Pinning" a card to the top.

Here is a simple summary though

I create a label which I call 📌 and remove the colour

I then do the automation:

when a card is added to list {listname}, sort the list by label 📌 Ascending

As a bonus, I also add this automation

when a card with the label 📌 is archived, unarchive the card
