I would like to have the calendar updated when a custom field is assigned a date & time
Asked by MKF - SALES:

when our sales person adds an appointment date and time in the custom field - we need it to show up in his calendar view on his board.

author: Iain Dooley
body: [@MKF - SALES](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4085626) that definitely happens with the calendar power up. When you add due dates/times to cards they will show up in your Calendar view.

Can you maybe share a screenshot (without any sensitive information) demonstrating the issue you're coming across?

comments: author: MKF - SALES
body: Thanks Ian,

My issue is more to do with custom fields as per the following:

Custom fields do not transfer onto the calendar power up

These dates are more important than due dates for checklist items.

At the moment I manually put the due date and a label to have it show up in Trello and the calendar power up.

Quarterly card repeater - how long does it run for?
Asked by Admin:

I've setup a quarterly card repeat by selecting repeat 'Monthly' every 'Three Months'. It shows ONLY two dates for the next repeats.

Does this mean

1) There is a limitation and it will only repeat twice and then need to be setup again

2) The repeat will run indefinitely, there is a limitation on the future dates that can be displayed (see image below)

3) Something else

Answers:
author: R?mi BERNI?RES
body: No, it only explain "This card will repeat at the start of the next month and in 3 months after october" because we are only the Tuesday, September the 15th. The next repeat in october will cut this problem.

Linking due dates between cards
Asked by Sonja Duncan:

Hi Trello Guru's out there

I am setting up a project tracker and I need to link the Due Date on one card on a Board with the Due Date on another card.

---

Working example

When the Due Date on Card A is set to '20 September 2020' the Due Date for Card B becomes '20 September 2020'.

If the Due Date on Card A changes the Due Date on Card B changes to the the same new date.

---

I'm Butler newbie and have been going in circles on many forums so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Sonja


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Sonja Duncan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4085586) the problem is that you can't set a card due based on a variable like {triggercardduedate} BUT you can set a due date based on the value in a custom field, which means that you can go via a custom field to set the due date on a linked card like this:

```
when a due date is set on a card, find the first card linked in the attachments, set custom field "Due" to "{triggercardduedate}", and set due on the date in custom field "Due"
```

comments: author: Sonja Duncan
body: Hi Iain - thanks for the help.

I can see how this would work using custom fields. I will give this a shot and see how it goes.

Team Board Remove Member
Asked by funcabo_com:

Hi. I'm trying to share a team board with only a few members of my team, not the entire team. Using the free edition. Is this possible if anyone knows.

thanks.


Answers:
author: Jimmy Seddon
body: Hi [@funcabo_com](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4085521),

I don't think that is possible on the free version. However, I believe you should be able to create a new team with the smaller set of users you want to share the board with and make that board a part of the new team.

I hope that helps!

Removing Team or Board Member and reassign cards
Asked by simonlampen:

Is there away while removing a team or board member to reassign their cards to another user?

TIA


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@simonlampen](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1827565) there's no way to bulk reassign cards using Butler, but this Trellinator function would do it:

You can copy and paste that code to run it in BenkoBot here:

Just edit the usernames and board name up the top of the script. There's currently no "save" function in BenkoBot but you can just keep that gist link handy and re-use it whenever you want to run this automation.

"The card is no longer on this board." error but only for mobile app?
Asked by Bill!!:

I have archived a list of prior completed projects to clean up the active board I'm using. However, I occassionally need to dig them up - this works fine on the browser interface. On the other hand, in the mobile app the card will load for about 6 seconds and then close with the error "the card is no longer on this board."  

If it makes a difference, the card is part of a list that was archived rather than being individually archived.  

Is anyone else running into this error? Is there a solution?

How can I get events or items listed in my iCalendar (Apple Calendar) Go to a Trello board?
Asked by Lovie Gilbreath:

I am fairly new to Trello, and it looks like there are easy ways to get Trello items transferred over to other calendars, but I am trying to get items that are listed / entered in my apple iCal calendar to automatically be transferred over into a specific list on one of my Trello boards. Is there an easy way to do this without needing Cronofy? I have had a terrible time trying to link Cronofy with my Trello account and it just seems like a lot of trouble for something so simple that I need. I don't really need two-way sync - I don't need Trello info to go into my Apple calendar; I need the reverse. This is not for a complicated business it's just for personal use and I only need it for one board.   
Or, is it worth it to keep trying to get Cronofy? Any advice Is very much appreciated. Thank you!


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Lovie Gilbreath](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4085381) I'm not sure about iCal but you can use Zapier to get Google calendar events to create Trello cards. You can also use iCal with Google Calendar. You might be able to do the same with iCloud via Zapier.

Add Cards to Board via Email - Custom Email Link
Asked by Ron Rockwood:

Is there a way to edit the email address for the "Add Cards via Email" link?

The ones that are automatically generated are difficult to recall off the top of my head.


Answers:
author: Felix
body: Hey Ron,

Trello does not allow you to specify a custom email link. The email address Trello gives you for the Email to Board feature include a secret that lets anyone who knows that address add cards to the board (or comment) as you. It's recommended you keep this email address secret and do not share it with others.

You could set up email forwarding with your email provider to your Trello email to board address if you wish though. How to do that would depend on your email provider - they very likely will have documentation on it.

Personally, I've added my email to board addresses as a contact, so I can just forward stuff to my Trello boards by typing the name, and my email client autocompletes it.

Cheers,

Felix

comments: author: Ron Rockwood
body: Hey Felix!

Thanks for the reply and great idea to add the email address as a contact! I'll give that a try ?


author: Stephen Addis
body: Just add it in as a contact in your email, and you could even include it as a BCC on emails. I tend to use my project number and Trello, so 074_Trello and it means I just start typing the project number, and bingo, pops up ... or I just type the full (short) name.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Ron Rockwood](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4081968) if you're a Gmail user, you can also add cards to boards using the Gmail add-on:

[https://help.trello.com/article/1120-trello-for-gmail-add-on#:\~:text=Directly%20from%20the%20G%20Suite,then%20click%20on%20a%20message.](https://help.trello.com/article/1120-trello-for-gmail-add-on#:~:text=Directly%20from%20the%20G%20Suite,then%20click%20on%20a%20message.)

Likewise I have a product that lets you use Trello as a Gmail client (so you can not only have cards for emails but can also reply to emails from Trello, and create new emails from Trello):

Export CSV "Too many checklists"
Asked by Don VanDemark Jr:

When I try to export my board to JSON, I get a 403 status error with an error message of "Too many checklists". I don't necessarily need the checklists in the JSON export but I don't know how to work around this blocker.


Answers:

Another way to do this would be to copy the board, keeping cards and then use the API to delete all the checklists from the copy and export that. This Trellinator function would do that:

<https://gist.github.com/iaindooley/a330d7087eaf26e6094827de75d57ee4>

Thank you for a very thorough answer. The script accomplished hat I was looking for. I would like the activity as well but I can probably work through the API to get that.
How do I receive notifications when I do something in Trello?
Asked by Daniel Bomberg:

It seems like I receive notifications when other users do something on a card I am a member. But I want to be able to receive notifications when I do something in the card (to keep track of what I do, like a "Sent" folder in email). How do I receive notifications for what I do?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Daniel Bomberg](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4085012) what types of things would you like to keep track of and where would you like those notifications to appear?

comments: author: Daniel Bomberg
body: [@Iain Dooley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1416112) I would like to keep track of all my actions in Trello (assigning members, moving cards, etc.) and I would like them to appear when clicking the bell icon on the upper right-hand side of the webpage, in a pop-up notification, and in the notification email Trello sends me.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Daniel Bomberg](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4085012) one way you could do it is:

1) Create a second Trello account and email email notifications

2) Login using that account and join/watch all your boards:

<https://help.trello.com/article/799-watching-cards-lists-and-boards>

3) That account will then get notified about all actions that anyone takes on any of those boards, including you

If you use Gmail you can easily create another account that will send emails to your address by using a "+" sign in your email address and then use a filter to automatically label all those notification emails:

<https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2014/09/how-to-use-the-infinite-number-of-email-addresses-gmail-gives-you/>

Note that you can also see actions in the board's activity feed even if you don't receive notifications for them:

<https://help.trello.com/article/822-the-board-menu>


author: Daniel Bomberg
body: [@Iain Dooley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1416112) Thank you for your suggestion. I will share it with my team and see if this meets your needs. Your thoughts on this matter is much appreciated.


author: Stephen Addis
body: Make yourself another account, and call the user "File \& Archive" with a file-archive@company email address. Then just go in there and see everything.  

I use that email to set up boards as admin, then me as a normal user so I dont get distracted with "admin" stuff when I'm doing productive work.  

Pigeon hole it all.
In Custom Fields power-up, is there a way to quickly add a new dropdown value within the list itself
Asked by hannuman:

Whenever I need to add a new value to a drop down list, I need to go the Custom Fields settings button for that card, add the value, then go back to the list to select that value. Is there a way to type in a "new" value directly within the list?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@hannuman](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4084955) there isn't, but you can create new custom field list items via the API. It's pretty tricky though you can't just do it with Butler. Perhaps there's a better option than using a custom field dropdown ... what are you using it for?

Trying to remove a team member from Trello board integrated with Slack
Asked by Will Paice:

I use Trello integrated with Slack. I am trying to remove a team member from one of my boards as he is no longer working on that account. I have removed the team member from the board by converting it to Private and have also removed the Slack power-up for that board. However, the team member continues to get notifications of updates to the board on his slack channel. How do I stop this? The team member continues to be on two other boards on my Trello account.


Answers:
author: Ryan
body: Hi Will,

Even though you removed the Power-up from the board, this wouldn't have deleted the notification that was set-up. Therefore, I'd add the Slack Power-up back onto the board in order to access the settings and turn off the notifications that are set up. Once you've done that, you can disable the Power-up again.

Thanks!

Ryan

Configure the default Action for "Create" Button
Asked by Paul Edison:

Hi,

**Question:**

Can I configure the default action for the "Create" Button in the top menu bar, to always trigger the "Create Blank page" action.

**Context:**

I'm accessing a Confluence and try to create a new (sub-) page in any space.  
I'm doing this by clicking directly on the "Create" Button in the top menu bar.  
Doing so I get forwarded to the "Not found" Page.

I realized that the reason is because on clicking the "Create" Button, the action of creating a Blog Post is triggered. I'm not allowed to create to create Blog Posts everywhere (but in my personal space).

So when I click on the dots (...) next to create and select "Blank Page" -\> "create" it works perfectly fine.

Can I configure and change the default behavior of the button?

author: Srinatha T
body: Hi [@Paul Edison](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2157479) ,

How to customize the displayed text for Confluence URLs?
Asked by Marc Lehr:

Currently when copy \& pasting Confluence page URLs the following display text format is used:

\[Site Name\] - \[Space name\] - \[Confluence (atlassian.net)\]

Having it always display "Confluence (atlassian.net)" at the end unnecessarily makes the URL names longer.

I know we can always manually change the display URLs, but this is very inefficient.

How can we customize either globally or per project/space that it should not display this useless information at the end in each displayed link?

There's no way to change this, it's some hard-coding that is showing people that you're pasting from a Cloud Confluence.

comments: author: Marc Lehr
body: Thanks for the quick answer, unfortunately not what I hoped.  

This forced information-display in the URL is really annoying and opposite of efficient.

Maybe there is a plugins on the marketplace to auto format display URLs to remove that agai, fingers crossed.

Use ConfiForms IFTTT Integration Rules submit request to my custom interface has 2-3s delay
Asked by ???:

The delay is very significant, the following is my screenshot:

![image.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/190103iA26C9663CFA13D32/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image.png")

the interface is on localhost machine and the submit data is small, so why when i submit data has 2-3s delay??? it bothers me a lot

thanks a lot!


Answers:
author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Hi

Do you post a file with your request? You should also understand that the request to your service configured via ConfiForms IFTTT happens only after the request to submit the form has been processed and completed (main part, then IFTTTs that you have configured will start to run sequentially)

ConfiForms does not wait anywhere on purpose. It is always busy doing the things you ask it to do.

I suggest checking logs to see what happens <https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/How+to+enable+debug+logging+for+ConfiForms+app>

Alex

comments: author: ???
body: [@Alex Medved _ConfiForms_](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/781630) thanks?

*what you mean is that when click the submit first save the form data to database then trigger the ifttt ?*

*1. i changed the *configuration?removed the post file?but after i test the delay is also exist**

**2. IFTTTs run sequentially? i don't known how to configure the concurrent mode**


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Yes, that's right - first the lifecycle of a ConfiForms record is triggered and then the IFTTTs get executed in a sequential way (that is by design and cannot be changed, as the core of IFTTTs execution is the ability to use results of the previous executed IFTTTs)

Welcome to the community.

Confluence is like a wiki tool, you can use it to collaborate, document, share knowledge and things like this.

The integration between Jira and Confluence allows you to link Confluence pages in Jira, i.e. to give more context to the issue.

And you can link Jira issues in Confluence. This could be used to show which issue is referenced in that page or to show the progress of issues directly in Confluence.
