@Stanislav S If you want to do it with Zapier, the best bet would be to use Google Sheets rather than Excel, then trigger on a new row created and map your cells to the relevant card fields

@Frank Barletta note that you can also add the Custom Field power up and put a number into that field and display it on the front of a card, but custom fields aren't editable by non-members.

@Frank Barletta the number of comments on a card is displayed on the front of a card :)

@Torben_trello I can confirm that using checklist:term works from the iOS app.

@Pankaj Agarwal Put their username in this URL instead of iaindooley: https://trello.com/iaindooley/cards

@PDX can you provide a screenshot here?

@Michael Stevens Trello notifications aren't configurable, but you can, for example, use the Butler Power up to create a notification by mentioning you in a comment on a card. Something like: 3 days before a card is due post comment "@michaelstevens this is due in 3 days"

@Arnaudcl you can just remove that member and reinvite with the correct email

@Frank Barletta you can allow anyone to comment on a card, which could be a useful proxy for popularity of request

@Dustin Hodge DashCards aren't available in the Butler Power up as far as I'm aware (perhaps @Katrin Anger can confirm). I have replaced mine with a card count at the top of a list like: List Name (5) This is the Trellinator code that makes it work: https://gist.github.com/iaindooley/82710e28b43c14af7d79084a578b407f You…

@Jason Tan if you share the sheet with iain@benkoboard.com I can check it out for you :)

@Jason Tan Fortunately all those questions kind of have the same answer. The setup below is a bit cumbersome at first, but once you get the hang of this you can easily create new functions and install them to automate Trello. Under the heading "Something more interesting" in this article:…

@Jason Tan The script you're providing access to is the code within the document. So no-one else can see, edit, create and delete all of your google drive files, but the code that is in that document can.

@Jason Tan okay cool, here is some Trellinator code that will remove all members from the cards called "Day List" and "Night List", then loop through all members of the board and randomly assign them to either of these cards, then schedule itself to execute again in 7 days:…

@Jason Tan you can't assign members to lists. You can only assign members to cards. So I get that A1 - A5 are the members, but what do you mean when you say that these members are "assigned to lists"? Lists contain cards, members can be added to cards.

@Jason Tan i think there are some gaps in the terminology. Here are the parts I can't understand: "A1 - A5 are assigned to Day List whilst B1 - B5 are assigned to Night List." You can't assign Trello members to a list. What are "A1 - A5" are they Trello users? Are "Day List" and "Night List" lists in Trello? Columns in a…

@Jason Tan can you explain what this means? "I would like the different members assigned to each of the board" Maybe if you provide some elaboration on what the real world scenario here is, rather than describing it in the abstract, the functionality you need will be clearer

@Ashish Kalal there's a distinction between team members and board members. Anyone who is a member of a board, will have full permissions on that board. However, you can create a board, make it team visible and then disable self-join. This will mean that team members can see the cards and links etc. but can't interact with…

@Ian Campbell no there's no conversation threading. If you wanted to thread a conversation you could create a card to hold that conversation, and link it to the original, so you'd split off conversation threads into sub-cards: https://blog.trello.com/related-cards-related-boards Or you could use Slack or Hangouts Chat for…

@Ian Campbell the best way to do this is to copy the previous comment and prefix paragraphs you're replying to with ">", so you can interleave your replies Here is what the text looks like: Here is what it looks like when saved:

@Елена Красникова do you have commenting disabled?

@guy levi I find checklists linked to cards to be a useful pattern for subtasking. I wrote an article the other day about automating this with Trellinator: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-articles/Trello-Subtasks-with-Trellinator/ba-p/1020531

@Rebecca Atkins If you want to automatically add a date when you move a card into a list, you could use the Butler power up, currently accepting beta sign ups: https://goo.gl/forms/4OT6hmWBmdfjso262 The command would be something like: When a card is moved to list "Doing" set due in 3 days This is the Trellinator code for…

@Rebecca Atkins You can mark a due date complete by clicking the little checkbox on the date: https://trello.com/c/Bp0uS04n/100-mark-a-trello-card-as-done-and-drop-the-mic-on-that-task

@Gijs-Brecht Kuijken when I've had that issue in the past with the bot it was due to the fact that the user executing the code in the board wasn't part of the organisation. You should contact the Butler support team and get them to look into it for you -- I'm not sure if Butler is still using support@butlerfortrello.com or…

@Gijs-Brecht Kuijken when you test due date functions in Butler, I've found you need to set the due date a little bit in advance or it won't fire. Have you tested it setting the due date, say, 20 minutes and then seeing if it works? Also Butler should be providing feedback when it executes if there is an error -- I'm not…

@Jeremy Hunter many of the things people want to customise are already written as chrome extensions which is also a good way of ensuring that people's customisations are truly custom. 

@Gordon Smart ah yep, I can confirm this is the case for me also.

@Egor Egorov the default email to board integration in Trello doesn't have any of the originating information in the card. You can create a custom setup with something like Zapier which gives you better control over the format of the card, however you can't easily use Zapier to send an email to the person from the card. I…

@Gordon Smart it does for me! What platform/version are you using? Note that the person you're notifying has to be a member of the board.
