Add automatic colour tags

Nándi 42k

Hi!

I can add a coloured tag only on the computer when I add a new card, but not on the phone. We are using a shared table, adding new cards from computer or mobile. Is it not possible to set up an automatic colored tag for a user? So we would know immediately by color who posted the card. THX

Hi Quiksilver

You can add labels to a card using your phone, what problems are you running in to?

You can also set up an automation tool on your board so that whenever a new card is added, a label is created on the card (regardless if computer or phone).

To add custom automation using Butlerbot, follow these steps:

1) Add Butlerbot to your board here: https://www.butlerfortrello.com/dashboard.html
-- A new list will be created titled "Butler"
2) Add a new card to the Butler list, using the following text

when a card is added to the board, add a "{creatorusername}" label

This will add the label, but it will be a non-color label. To add a specific color label, use

when a card is added to the board, add a red "{creatorusername}" label

Let me know if you have any further questions about setting this up.

PS: Here's Butler's command builder: https://butlerfortrello.com/builder.html

thanks, this is super, but what i would like to do is a bit different.
2 persons editing this table. I would like to add a yellow tag if person A created the card and blue tag if person B created the card. So I would always see which was my idea and which was the other persons idea....

Sure! Add a new label to your board with the title of the label equal to the username.

Your butler command will be

when a card is added to the board, add the "{creatorusername}" label

Then, each time a card is created, Butler will assign the associated label.
