Proper syntax to pass Custom Fields as URL parameters using POST TO action in card button
Asked by Cody L:

Hello, could someone please verify or correct my syntax for constructing a URL string which passes Custom Field values as URL parameters when a card button is clicked that uses the Butler **POST TO** action.

Ex. Custom Fields == First_Name, Last_Name  
Ex. Internal variables == first, last

Ex. URL string:  
[https://internal.website.com/application?first={{%First_Name}}\&last={{%Last_Name](https://internal.website.com/application?first={{%First_Name}}&last={{%Last_Name)}}  

**Also**, how do I handle passing Custom Fields, like in the URL string above, whose names have spaces, i.e. 'First Name' instead of 'First_Name'? I'm no HTTP expert but I do know URLs cannot contain spaces.

Thank you!

Thumbnail images in lists for pdf files?
Asked by RealityCheck:

Hello,

Does anyone know if it is possible to insert a thumbnail for pdf files in a list (where there is a the grey square to the left of the file name). A thumbnail inserts automatically when the file is a jpg or png.

This would be like the pdf file's first page displaying in Finder on an Apple Mac.

Many thanks

Jan

Right now, we're only able to support those previews for image files, and not document type files, but I'll make sure the team knows that's something you'd like to see possible in the future!

That would be an excellent addition. I make my Trello screens as visual as I can so that they have maximum impact.

Is it possible to duplicate a Trello board, including all comments, checklist, attachments etc..?
Asked by Sam Lee:

Is it possible to duplicate a Trello board, including all comments, checklist, attachments etc.. ?

I know i am able to copy a board, which gives me all of the cards, columns etc.. but does not seem to include all comments, checklist, attachments etc..


Answers:
author: Blair at Atlassian
body: Hi Sam,

When a Trello board is copied, we'll copy cards and their descriptions. We don't copy comments or card activity, however.

To get a "full copy" of the board, your best bet is to copy each list individually, and move it to your new board. You might also check to see if you want to [change the board admins](https://help.trello.com/article/768-changing-the-admins-of-an-organization-or-board), or [move the board to a new team](https://help.trello.com/article/752-changing-the-organization-to-which-a-board-belongs), instead.

Hope this helps!
Force data in field
Asked by eyal horesh:

Is there any way to create custom mandatory field? I.e. to force entering data at the specific field.

Links only active in activity, not card
Asked by Christine Baker:

I just created a new board. The links are only clickable in the ACTIVITY.  

Is that how it's supposed to be?

![image.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/77399i526A08C465F759A6/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image.png")


Answers:
author: Torben_trello
body: What you are seeing is expected. Looking at the screenshot it seems you have pasted the link into the card title. The card title is supposed to be short and sweet - therefore it does not support any formatting such as line breaks or links. The link in the activity will link to the actual card.

I personally would recommend choosing a descriptive card title and attach the link using the Attachments feature of the card:<https://help.trello.com/article/769-adding-attachments-to-cards>

comments: author: Christine Baker
body: I feel so stupid, didn't even see that it says "title". I was trying to have the links visible so I don't have to make so many clicks.  

15 years ago I've had to get a track pad because I was in so much pain from the countless clicks all day.

Can I put into the card's description an animated gif with the Markdown format?
Asked by C?sar Luis Alzate Su?rez:

Hey! I want to interact with my teams and members of my boards in different ways, so I would like to know about adding animated gifs to the card's description; Is it possible?

Can I upload an animated gif with an URL or with an attached file?

Please I would like to know about it, and if it is posible how can I achieve this new task.

I'm basing this idea in the README.md file. It comes to my mind when I was finising a personal proyect.


Answers:
author: Garrett
body: Hi C?sar,

You can directly embed gifs in the description using an exclamation before a link like this:  

![Screen-Shot-2019-12-31-at-4-36-15-PM.png](https://d33v4339jhl8k0.cloudfront.net/inline/22332/57edb22da149f64d86a9a595c7ce645e278b98c1/a603a97657d5be731c588334c3f985f6ca35dae4/Screen-Shot-2019-12-31-at-4-36-15-PM.png)  

You can always add a link as an attachment on the card as well, which will display it as a cover on the card:  
![Screen-Shot-2019-12-31-at-4-37-24-PM.png](https://d33v4339jhl8k0.cloudfront.net/inline/22332/d1b4a3ecacf1586ca78b0a9b13b8af27a6e1c516/ab5c52723124213e51ac0bb5d99b2c84d5399056/Screen-Shot-2019-12-31-at-4-37-24-PM.png)

How does one download .pages files as attachments ?
Asked by RealityCheck:

I have Trello Gold so file size is not an issue, anyway these text files are small and do not exceed 500KB. I have tried dragging and dropping and also using the Add an Attachment button. Neither method works. Can anyone tell me why .pages files are not attaching?

body: Hi Danny,

I use Apple OSX so was trying to download via Finder and not a browser. I did finally manage by converting the files to pdf.

Floating list on the board
Asked by yonig:

Hi,

is there a way of making your lists "float"?

locating them anywhere on the board, in the desktop app, and not just on the top of the screen, one next to another.

Thanks,

Yoni


Answers:
author: Garrett
body: Hey Yonig,

There isn't a way to do that currently, but I'll be happy to pass your interest in that over to our team for consideration!

comments: author: yonig
body: Thanks! it will be very effective, and allow much more flexible use of the software.


author: as asw
body: Well Actually it did startup once. I close JIRA down to put in the JEMH plugin and beginning it up once more takes me returned to the equal original hassle. I checked permissions on the .Osgi-plugins folder, it appears good as you can see [here](https://imotherboards.com/best-white-motherboard/) the exact page.


author: matt.nohn
body: Thank you, Garrett.

I second that request by yonig. Floating lists would allow much more flexible and efficient use of screen space. It doesn't make sense to keep all the space below short lists empty.

In addition, and related to the above, it would allow to group related lists, which enhances the management. That could be supported through some additional features, such as a background color for lists.

Finally, I understand that the not-yet-floating lists serve the purpose of a clean appearance, but believe that this can be addressed through an option that keeps (even floating) lists within some kind of grid structure - e.g. similar to the option of a mac desktop.  

Cheers!

comments: author: matt.nohn
body: PS: grouping may also be enhanced through some 'boards within boards' feature. That would go in the direction of some Miro functions... Thus when on the 'motherboard' one sees the project with the list names (similar to cards on lists), but not the actual list. then you can zoom in, by clicking a project. cheers again
Not able to download Trello app for iPad - does one exist?
Asked by bparai:

Have Trello app on iPhone but when I use my iPad to search the app store none shows up. And when I use the iPad to go to the Trello site, it gives a prompt to get the app but the download icon is inactive.

Answers:
author: Torben_trello
body: Our iOS app supports both the iPhone and iPad. Any chance that the iPad does not meet the minimum requirements for installation?

I know this answer is much later - My Ipad is at IOS 12.5.3, the current App says it needs IOS 13. My Ipad will no longer update past 12.5.3 Is there any way to use the older APP version? I love Trello and I want to continue using it on my Ipad!!

Reference {listname} in Card Button or Rules
Asked by Michael Duffy:

I would like to rename a card by appending the List Name in front of the Card Name when I click a Done button on the Card. (e.g. {listname} \| {cardname}

I can reference cardname but not listname. Purpose is that i have lists related to different projects that I would like to copy over to a Done list, yet still be able to see where it came from.

I started with created a Card Button with rename action. Then, I tried (per another answer provided) to do a workaround with a Card Button that sets the Card Description to {listname} and applies color label. In theory, once I was able to set the Card Description there, I could then reference it during my Rule that says when a green label card is in the Done list, rename the card to {carddescription} \| {cardname}.

This ends up as " \| {cardname}".

Asked by Islam:

Hey!

Question 1:

Can you tell me if there is an article on how to set up the confluence \\ jira page for the duration of the work, so that not a 503 error is displayed (the service is unavailable), but your own page indicating that work is in progress?

Question 2:

Can I restrict access to the service only for certain persons during the work?


Answers:
author: Kishan Sharma
body: Hi [@Islam](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4543041)

For Question 1 - Though I have not done this personally, I have found [this thread](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Redirect-custom-error-pages-of-jira-using-redhat-Apache-httpd/qaq-p/1072512) where this has been discussed on how it can be achieved.

For Question 2 - You can try disabling the user directories and create an internal group directory and add members to that group, so that only those users will be able to login to confluence. But if your service itself is down, there's no use of it.

Answers:
author: Max Foerster - K15t
body: Hi [@?? ??](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4575693) and welcome to the community!

Can we first establish what platform you are on? I would suspect that it's Confluence Cloud you're using.

First off, your user needs an Atlassian Account to use your (cloud) products in your site. When you say that you cannot add the person to Confluence, what does it mean exactly? What errors or notifications do you get? Are you familiar with the [user management on Cloud](https://support.atlassian.com/user-management/docs/invite-a-user/) (I added some documentation)? If the user has an Atlassian ID, he will get access. If your user doesn't have an Atlassian ID, they will be walked through the Atlassian account signup process. That's the default process. If you integrated the tools with G Suite or another identity provider, it's very similar but slightly different.

Important is that you're inviting the correct user account (with the valid email) because Atlassian IDs cannot be merged afterward. I hope that helps you a bit in the first step but let me know if you have other questions.

Best, Max

Space tools not working

Page Properties not showing filtered labels
Asked by Yoshinari Tei:

I have created an article with three labels "entpri", "sop" and "insha". However, when I run a page properties filter display, it is not showing the newly created article here and it seems like only this article's labels cannot be detected. Even removing all labels, this article is nowhere to be seen in the page properties filter.

However when I drill down by clicking on the labels in this article, it will show this new article in the label webpage. How do I workaround this? I have even deleted the article and recreated one, but it is still the same.

**\*Edit 29th Sep 21\***

Using the same labels, another article could be displayed successfully here. But just two articles using the exact same format refuses to show up here.
