The Filter Button disappeared.

Danny Fisher-Bruns

My filter button, which I used to use on a daily basis, has suddenly disappeared from the menu. This hasn't happened to any of my coworkers who use the same board.

See below for a screenshot. Filter used to be right there between stickers and change background (Also, it does not show up when I click More either)

Any advice on how to get the Filter button back?

Hi @Danny Fisher-Bruns!

It looks like they’re playing with changing the UI a bit. Next to your search box, do you see that funnel icon/button? I’d hazard a guess that’s where the Filter option went (I’m assuming it’s being A/B tested, as I don’t have it to confirm my suspicion either way).

Hope this helps!

Hi @Danny Fisher-Bruns!

Hope this helps!

Danny Fisher-Bruns

Wow! That's it!

I never would have noticed that. So, I guess this is good A/B testing feedback if Trello is listening -- the old layout made a lot more sense to me

Thanks Devon. I have the same issue, but in my case there is no search box either, as per the image below.

Any further suggestions?

Devon Henderson

Hi @Schalk Lubbe! Oh goodness, it looks like yours has a "Search Cards" in its place. I think they must be testing effective placement for these things. Does the Filter Cards show if you click "More"?

Steve Slater

Glad to know I'm not alone. Please return the filter...or tell us where it's now hidden.

Steven Llewellyn

I was just about to raise the same question! My filter button has disappeared which led to a very embarrassing meeting and also unproductive!

Steven Llewellyn

How do we get this noticed and an issue raised with Trello?

Grace Lee_mnee6k

I have encountered the same problem as well, the search bar and filter had suddenly disappeared. I managed to find a solution by using the hotkey - pressing "f".
But it's still of great inconvenience and I hope it gets fixed soon!

The filter box also just disappeared from my Trello board menu, and it's nowhere to be found... not under the "... More" menu. Very strange! WTF Trello! Fortunately, the "f" hotkey still works and shows the filter menu.

Javier De la Cueva

Same here, I do really need that function, that's probably the main reason for me to use trello...

Miroslav Kostov

Same here, I know it changed places, I searched it everywhere ... I have no filtering capabilities whatsoever as of today.

Valentina Osorio

Hey guys! FOUND THE SOLUTION, same thing happened to me, filter completely disappeared but found a way to keep using it on the trello help page using keyboard shortcuts "To open the card filter menu, use the "f" keyboard shortcut. To filter only your cards, using the "q" keyboard shortcut. To remove all filters, use the "x" keyboard shortcut."

Miroslav Kostov

You deserve a medal !

m_wittmann

While the "f" keyboard shortcut works great (for now!) I wonder what the heck is up... Why eliminate this from the UI? Is Atlassian/Trello planning to do away with the filter function altogether in the future?

Does Atlassian monitor and respond to these threads?

Claudio Pisanu

thank you! it helped me!

mcihanozer

This is the most idiotic thing I have ever faced. I hope you guys fix it and bring it back asap. Nobody ain't got time for this new system.

Lara Allen

Thank you for this workaround.

Does anyone from Trello monitor this page so that they can receive all of this good feedback?

CThobbyist

Thanks, I stumbled into this solution on my own by selecting "Search Cards" from the main Menu. You'd think Atlassian would update their documentation in sync with such changes.

Le Ngoc Quoc Khanh

I cannot find Filter icon anywhere, either in 'Show Menu' or next to main Search Box. This is so irritating!

Lara Allen

I emailed support and they got right back to me. After telling me it's now called "Search Cards", he said, "Sorry to catch you off-guard—our team recently made a change, renaming that Filter feature to Search Cards. The feature works just the same way, only the name has changed!" I told him people on the community chat are all up in arms about it. He said, "Oh no, I hope they're not too upset! You're always welcome to toss our email (support@trello.com) into the chat and we'll be happy to explain the feature change to anyone who has concerns. "

I can't believe they don't have someone from the company that actually has the answers to our questions monitoring this chat! This is basically useless with all of us users just going round and round trying to figure things out that can easily be answered by the people who actually make the changes!

Lara Allen

It's now called "Search Cards" or you can get to it by pressing "f" from your board.

Lara Allen

Just email support@trello.com. They are very responsive, but no one from there monitors these boards.

Miroslav Kostov

Use the "F" shortcut that is how I managed to deal with this.

Mikael Byström

You actually don't need to use the "f" as it's the "Search Cards" option that is visible now at least.
