In order to accomplish this, you need to enlist the help of a 3rd party application such as CardSync, Unito, or Butler.

Personally, I use Butler Automation.

To add custom automation using Butlerbot, follow these steps:

1) Add Butlerbot to your board here: [https://www.butlerfortrello.com/dashboard.html.](https://www.butlerfortrello.com/dashboard.html.?) for each board that you have a To Do list to copy over to a main board, add Butler.

* A new list will be created titled "Butler"
* Add a new card to the Butler list (on the "master" board)

*every day at 8:00 am, copy all the cards in list "To Do" on board "Board1" to list "Master To Do" on board "Master".*

and another card with

*every day at 8:00 am, copy all the cards in list "To Do" on board "Board2" to list "Master To Do" on board "Master".*

In this instance, I have 2 boards, **Board 1** and **Board 2** , along with a master board called **Master.** The above 2 commands will copy all cards from both boards **TO DO** list and put them on **MASTER TO DO** on board Master.

body: This sounds like a good solution...however, if I update a todo on the main board, will it propagate back to the item on the original board?

body: Slight addition to the answer to prevent duplicates appearing in the Master list is to archive the previous day's master list before copying over.

every day at 6:00 am, archive list "Master To Do" on board "Work", and copy each card to list "Master To Do" on board "Work"


author: Jared J. Wiese
body: While I can see the goal of Mathew's suggestion, what still bugs me is having all the duplicates. Because when I go to search, it includes archived cards and is not so obvious.

I've been using Planyway that shows cards by due date across boards. That has the added benefit of scheduling. Cuz we've all probably heard, what doesn't get scheduled doesn't get done!
