check lists order

Question

Hi, I have 1 card that I update with a check list daily. How can I get the new list to auto populate on top instead of defaulting to the bottom where I have to scroll all the way down and pull it up past many many many older check lists....

Thanks!

Hi @Rebecca Matthews

This can be really easily done using a tool like Make (make.com) or Zapier

My preference is Make and I am a make "expert".  If you choose to use Make, I can share the automation blueprint for you to copy/paste into a new Make scenario:

This simple Make scenario will watch for new checklists and when a new checklist is added to a card, will move it to the top of the card.

* Sign up to Make (click link above)
* Go to Create Scenario
* Copy the text below
* In the Make scenario do ctrl+v to paste this in
* Connect your Trello account
* Save and enable the scenario

That’s literally the issue I’m complaining about. Once I get 30 days in that’s an awful lot of dragging to have to do…

You can drag and drop checklist items to rearrange them in any order.
