Set due date automatically

[PM Company Maria]

Hello, I've been having this issue for a while now, I want to set the due date automatically for certain lists but keep them marked for some time.

2 days after a card with a complete due date is due, move the due date to the same day next week, and mark the due date as incomplete

But this just doesn't work, I tried something different like this

14 days before a card in list "Every four months" is due, move the due date by 4 months, and mark the due date as incomplete

I want to keep it complete for some time so my team knows that it's been done, and that way is not instantly moved. 

Please anything will be helpful, I also been trying the "On the day..." in X hour. So that way  I don't wait too long to test, but nothing seems to be working.

Thanks

@PM Company Maria are you trying to keep track of when a task was last completed, and then changing the due date? 

If so, I think you'll be able to do this more efficiently by creating a custom date field called Last Completed and then building some automation around that. I do something like that in my Chore board so I can track when I last did a chore and make it due again. 

My cards look like this, so I can see when it was last done, and also when it's due again: 

Here's a video I made about how I set those automation rules:
