How can I generate to do lists?

[Lina Christopoulou]

We are a team of four using trello basic. We have one board, with several lists. Each list has a few cards and on each card we have checklists with actions that are @Name . How can I get trello to spit out just my todo list in a simple way?

@Lina Christopoulou You can see assigned checklist items in the Home view under "Your items", have a read of this overview:

Sure, thank you but that's with the paid version, we're using the free version. Any ideas around that?

[Iain Dooley]

@Lina Christopoulou in that case, instead of using checklists with @name to assign tasks to people, you can add members to cards, then filter the board to show only cards assigned to those people and see cards across all boards in the cards view:

@Iain Dooley Thanks... after some rearranging of the board and a bit of faffing that can work.

Thanks you!

It's bizzarre that the search box to the left of the boards gives a different output than searching via the menu. And of course the ideal would be to be able to search for "@name" and for that to pick up the @s in the Checklists too.

@Lina Christopoulou yes it made much more sense when "search in this board" was called "filtering"
