Due Date problems

Question

I've started having problems with my TO DO dates. I created a template TO DO checklist that I use for my weekly class. The tasks are always the same, so wanted a quick solution. The checklist just has the tasks and not due dates.

When i copy the items for that checklist, then go into each card and change the TO DO dates to when I need them to be, the dates are all showing up on the original template creation date.

I just started having this problem over the past few weeks. I've copied checklists since using trello and never had this issue. What is going on and what can i do to simplify this process.

Ok gotcha, so it's just the calendar that seems out of sync...I'm not sure of any update that would have impacted this. Can you take a look at a checklist item in your calendar that you know has the incorrect date and click the link to the card?

Once you're in the card, can you confirm that the checklist item you were looking at originally has a different date? And there's no duplicate or anything that you can see? Just want to make sure you're looking at the same thing. Also, can you try accessing Trello from an incognito browser to see if the problem persists? Maybe a cache issue?

I'm just a community member, so I can't do much in the way of diagnosing the issue, so it might be worth contacting Trello support to have a look into it if you can't figure it out.

When i look at the card shown in image three the dates are kept as I want them. The only place that they are changing is in the calendar.

I have never set-up any automations and didn't start having this issue until 2-4 weeks ago. Did Trello do any kind of update?

Seems strange! Just to clarify, when you look at the card shown in the 3rd image, do the dates appear to have changed? Or are you just seeing the incorrect dates in the calendar? If a checklist item date is automatically changing from March 11th - March 5th, it sounds like there's some sort of automation happening in the background. Do you have any automation rules set up that could be messing with the checklist due dates?
