Due dates

[Jan]

Is it possible to have a due date automated on every new Trello card?

[Brittany Joiner · Accepted solution]

You could also just set a rule that says whenever a new card is added to a board, set the due date to 2 weeks from now (I do that on one of my boards so i remember to look through ideas).

That would be ideal but when I searched perhaps I missed it.  Are you able to share where I set that up?

[Brittany Joiner]

@Jan yeah! here's a loom showing how to do it: https://www.loom.com/share/5fc1f577e20149d1ba47ccaff7f4e78f

and a screenshot of the rule itself!

Thanks so much feeling very silly not to think to do such a simple rule.  Thanks for your time and help

[Brittany Joiner]

@Jan don't feel silly at all!! That's why were here! :) Happy to help! Let me know if it makes sense or you get stuck!

There is a Trello automation that will take a date that is on either the card name or card description and use it to set the due date.
