  • @Vicki Gessler you'll need to contact Trello support directly. You can do this by going back to trello.com/contact, clicking to ask Trello Support (instead of the community), then typing your question. If your question isn't answered by the automated thing, scroll to the bottom of the suggested solutions and submit your…
  • @Mendel Dahan you can do this with Butler using a trick I learned from @Vongsawat and collecting all cards in a list into linked items in a checklist: when a list is renamed, find a card with link "https://trello.com/c/eAtOIKHj", collect all cards in list "{listname}" into linked items in checklist "TEMPORARY", for each…
  • @felipe bitencourt medeiros you can use custom fields to put a start/end date on the card, but for project planning you can also use Placker which is an addon to Trello.
  • @Clertiani Alves you can do this using the API. Here's a good primer: http://www.littlebluemonkey.com/blog/automated-trello-reporting-using-google-spreadsheets Here's an example of doing a simple report like this with Trellinator: https://gist.github.com/iaindooley/1913ab63569b4c2356521b9cfb42bbeb You can read more about…
  • @Grace Kennedy looks like you've inadvertently enabled a filter, look for a green widget in the top right with a white "x" on it, click the x, clear the filter, problem solved :) FYI the way this is typically done is using the "f" keyboard shortcut. You can also use the "x" key on your keyboard to clear the filter:…
  • @Amy Foreman Plaisance what happens when you try to share to Trello from Chrome? Once you tap "share" the OS should basically take over, so sharing from Chrome shouldn't be different from sharing via Safari. Incidentally, are you able to share pages from Safari?
  • @Adam Hall my favourite is TimeDoctor. The others I have seen all integrate via a Power Up which doesn't work on Mobile, TimeDoctor integrates "behind the scenes" which means that their mobile app presents a "punch clock" style interface so you can easily start and stop timesheeting against cards you're a member of. Their…
  • @ABDUL MAJID yep, there's no way to set due using a variable in Butler, this Trellinator function would do the same thing: https://gist.github.com/iaindooley/93ed0536b9ac11f83a5145b6a553036b You can read more about Trellinator here:…
  • @Дмитрий Аралкин the only boards you can control the ordering of on the home screen are those you have "starred", you can re-order them in both the boards page and the boards menu: https://help.trello.com/article/965-starring-a-board
  • @Chip Morris hmmm normally this issue is due to people creating a card due in 1 minute, but you have an example that shows you're allowing 4 minutes that should be enough time for the trigger to take effect. Have you looked in your command usage log? You might be out of commands, or you might be able to see that the…
  • @Ben Thoma the way you want this to work, ie. without having to enable a bunch of rules on the new board but just have the copy "inherit" the functionality of the template, isn't possible with Butler. The process of relinking is also pretty cumbersome, but may be possible. You can do it with Trellinator, though; it's…
  • @Libby Harris as far as I'm aware, there's no way to change language at the board level, you go to your settings back and change language for your account. The good news is that everyone on your team can do this for themselves, so if your issue is that you want one board to be in Spanish to suit Spanish speakers on that…
  • @Atendimento Max Lira one option is to add everyone to a team, then make the board "Team Viewable" but don't add the "non-admins" to the board as members. Then everyone on the team can see the board, and can comment on cards, but can't move the cards: https://help.trello.com/article/791-changing-permissions-on-a-board You…
  • @[deleted] what I've been able to determine is that Trello will permanently have the address stored that you originally used when you first signed up and/or connected Google to Trello. However you can always get back to your correct account: 1) From the web you can always login by going to https://id.atlassian.com and…
  • @Tosh Brown @Michel Valstar if you want them in a table format you might be better exporting either as CSV (if you have business class and the default export format suits you), or using a power up like Board Export from Adaptavist, or Blue Cat reports. Alternatively, you can write your own reports using the API. There's a…
  • @katt_zilla you should be able to get a record of board actions historically but, for the same reason that you can't see activity of members no longer there in the activity feed anyway, you would face the same limitation retroactively applying this to board actions through the API. 
  • @Dik Liu Hmmm sounds like something you need to take up with the Planyway team, they have control over how things are displayed in their powerup
  • @katt_zilla You'd need to log this somewhere else in order to see the name of members who took actions that are no longer there, for example you could log it in Google Sheets with these Trellinator functions: https://gist.github.com/iaindooley/b2493d5b799933c2d4eee3d365fd9384 You can read more about Trellinator here:…
  • @Igor Ponomarev this is a feature. When you copy a card, you get the option to copy it with or without some items being included. When you move a card, the assumption is that you want to keep the card in-tact. You could use a Butler card button to remove all labels: Depending on how many different boards you regularly move…
  • @Virtual Naomi you can use Butler to send email notifications (this will send an email more reliably than adding a comment, and it also means you don't have to set up the rules using a different account in order to trigger the notification:
  • @Mauricio Garza Do you really need them to be members of your team? You can have a free team with up to 10 boards and just invite your clients as members to each board without adding them to the team. If you pay for a business class team, and you're the only team member then you'd only pay for yourself, so long as each…
  • @Christine Sandsness according to the documentation here: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/trello/guides/rest-api/action-types/ the addLabelToCard action is supposed to be an included item in the nested action types resource so you should be able to do this in your browser:…
  • @Sathya Ma the card repeater has always been a power up, maybe the features of the power up just changed, or maybe what you were using was a feature of Planyway. Maybe you could try contacting Planyway support, sharing some screenshots or sharing a screencast using loom.com describing the problem in more detail, because…
  • @Raul M. Jeronymo this sounds like pretty buggy behaviour, it doesn't sound like a typical "accidentally applied a filter" scenario. I think your best approach is to record a screencast using loom.com and then send it directly to Trello support by going to trello.com/contact (when you get to the automated bot thingy scroll…
  • @Hames Pro I think there are some Chrome extensions that do this (Next for Trello maybe?) but nothing that works cross platform (ie. on mobile or on different browsers). If you have this requirement, though, you might find that you'd be better off using cards instead of checklists. If you want to see a checklist overview…
  • @Mikelle Swartztrauber this isn't present in Butler, but it was a feature I requested regularly since back in the day when it was Butler Bot. When I wrote Trellinator to replace Butler Bot, I added the feature of "global command groups", it's actually in the "more interesting" example I use in my intro article:…
  • @Gary Smith do you have the fields showing on the front of the cards? If so people will see the info in custom fields prior to opening the card with the long description.
  • @Dik Liu Do you mean board backgrounds? You can change board background colours by following these instructions: https://help.trello.com/article/818-changing-board-backgrounds
  • @Andy Hubbard what device/platform is this occurring on?
  • @Travis Jones you can use location tracking with IFTTT, but it's not like "tell me where everyone is right now", it's more like "tell me when someone leaves or arrives at some location". So you would have to set up geofences that trigger the automation to run, which could be recorded in Trello.
