Allign due dates on different trello card

[Mathias Jaeger]

Hi all,

I've the following problem: I have two cards in two different boards and I would like to make sure that they always have the same due date (which is always changing). Currently  always have to change and align them both manually. Is there a way to connect the cards so they always automatically have the same due date?

This requires having both card's due date being initially the same day first. Then have a Butler Rule on each board that looks at its respective card, and moving the due date of the other card whenever its own is moved.

You can use any kind of filtering you want to ensure its got the right card. A certain label, or finding the card by its url etc. The additional "Butlering" labels and filtering are so that the two rules don't recursively trigger each other (which I think Butler will stop, but it lags out the activation a little while its trying to figure out if its an infinite loop or not.)

Thanks! That was easier than expected!
