Merging labels

[Or Luis SHEMTOV]

Hello and hope anyone can help

I am looking for a way to merge many labels into one.

e.g., let's say I have the logical label "great", which over time through syncs and cards moving between boards now exists also as {"great"; " great"; "great "; green "great"; yellow "GREAT!"; "blue "Great"; etc}

Is there any way to have a Butler script to take care of this? as a calendar action or a board bottom?

e.g. butler script: "for every card with the label " great" apply the label green "great""

Is there any other way of achieving this automation? some label management screen hiding somewhere maybe?

Thank you!

Interesting. Sounds like you have to change all cards to use only the green great labels, remove the labels for the rest and then clean up the board labels. I have a messy test board to try this.

you got me, and honestly the "and then clean up the board labels" is for brownie points :-)

any idea for a butler hack/other path for this?

Will write a program just for fun. And if it works I will post it on my ‘brand’ new service.

@milynnus -- how do I add the merge code to my board?

While the documentation is still there, the server that host the server has gone out business. I have not implement it in another server as this is a very specific requirement and almost 3 years ago.
