[TRELLO] How to do a global change of due dates in a copied board?

[Siew-Sim Lim]

TRELLO (not Jira) query: 

Heads-up -- this question carries the assumption that boards can be copied in Trello (free version).  If not, and only available in a paid version, please advise.

An existing board would have a set of due dates applied to all of its cards.  After it is closed a copy of it is made so as to replicate all tasks (cards) with only the intent to change due dates.  How can a global change be made to all due dates based on a specified start date that then would increment all due dates accordingly? 

E.g.  the earliest date for a board that is closed is 1st Feb.  The next earliest date of the copied board is 1st June.  It is desired that all dates in the board be incremented automatically by the number of days of difference between 1st Feb and 1st June.  Is there a functionality to do this automatic incrementing?

Thanks for the follow-up and this is encouraging info!  And thanks for submitting the request.  Please also send the note across about the ability to change all dates within the copy-from board globally by nominating a new start date in the copy-to board from which all dates would be incremented.

Enjoy your day :)

Hi there,

Marta here, from Trello Support.

Boards can definitely be copied on the free version as well. I completely understand how that would be beneficial, but it's currently not available within Trello. I'll pass your interest in this on to our team for consideration—please let me know if there's any additional info you'd like for me to send their way.
