Is there a way to set a "Duration" of a card and appear across multiple days in the calendar?
Asked by Grant Anderson:

I'm managing the Service Department for a Heavy Civil and Construction tech company, and we use Trello to help organize and schedule our installs and service calls in the field.

These installs are billed based on a number of labor hours and can often stretch multiple days. Is there a way to set the duration of a card, and then have it reflected in the calendar view across the specified number of days. For example I might have a card with a start date of Monday, but the labor hours quoted is 24. Could I then have that card appear in the calendar across Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday?

This is critical so we don't over-book technicians.

body: Not at the moment, but we hear you! We don't have a concrete release date set yet, but we're adding a Timeline view next year: <https://blog.trello.com/future-of-trello>

For now, the best bet is to record the project's duration in a custom field, or perhaps in the Card's title. If you work mostly from Calendar view, putting the duration in the Title might be best as it would be visible on your Calendar.

comments: author: Miriam Mitzman
body: Any updates on this yet? We mainly use google calendar and need it properly integrated, but everything in trello shows up as 1 hour duration and the sync also does not reflect in a timely fashion for changes made. Is there a way to properly view the timing of the tasks in google calendar yet, or at least set duration in trello cards and checklists and have that reflect accordingly in the calendar?


author: Geoff Harris
body: Also very interested in this as a feature.


author: Catherine
body: Me too!

Even If the "due date" option had a "duration" drop down so the time in my calendar is accurate for a booking


author: Sarah Ximena Norzagaray

Sync with Outlook Calendar is not working properly
Asked by Thomas Odermatt:

Dear all

I imported the Trello-Calendar to my Outlook as an "Internetcalendar" as its called in Outlook. However, not all Board-Calendars are properly synced. Some of them are updated directly when making changes in Trello, some of them are not updated at all.

Can anyone help how to ensure that Trello-Calendars are always up to date also in Outlook?

Thank you very much for your help!

Thomas


Answers:
author: Torben_trello
body: Hi Thomas,

This would be depended on how often the Calendar app pings our server for updates. With most Calendar apps this could be set up from every few minutes to only once per day. I'd recommend checking with the support team of that Calendar app to see how to change that for your subscribed iCal feeds. This might also already help: <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12428445/outlook-refresh-interval-for-ical-subscriptions-webcal>
How to add multiple conditions for the trigger?
Asked by Bruno Dallavalle:

Hello,

I would need to create a trigger with multiple conditions.

Example:

IF \<this-label\> is Orange and \<this-label\> is Purple THEN \<do-this\>

Thank you.

Bruno


Answers:
author: milynnus
body: [@Bruno Dallavalle](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1583845) Butler does not handle multiple conditions...but if the intent is to see if a card has "create" green label AND "create" purple label on it ...ie two labels same name but different colour and these two labels are already configured on the board... let use collect into a checklist and process each card via the links like :
>
> ```
> collect all cards with the green "Create" label with the purple "Create" label into links in checklist "{cardlink}"
> ```

comments: author: Bruno Dallavalle
body: Hello,

thank you for your reply.

Fact is that with in the 'Rules' section of the Power UP Butler a trigger must be set.

I'm new to Trello automation, perhaps that is not the right section to use?

Thank you.


author: milynnus
body: [@Bruno Dallavalle](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1583845) You are correct, I omitted the trigger when a CF to be set in the list just to highlight the collect card command is effectively an AND condition to collect a set of cards for further processing.


author: Bhargav
body: But what if the multiple conditions are related to lists and not labels or checklist

for Eg:

when card is moved

from list "1st listname" AND into list "2nd listname"

add "name of checklist " checklist

How do we achieve automation in this case?


author: milynnus
body: [@Bruno Dallavalle](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1583845)

I think you can try qualifying the trigger : card being in list A and then chose the move into action followed by list B

Butler - Moving due date forward by variable number
Asked by MaciekSarnowicz:

I have created a Trello board to keep track of regular maintenance tasks. Each task has its own repeat cycle which is stored in "Weeks Interval" custom field. For example, for a task to be done once a year, that field value will be 52.

Now, I created a Buttler Card Button that will, among other things, advance the due date to the next maintenance due. I am using a simple action like this:

*set due in {{%Weeks Interval}} weeks*

but I am getting an error. If I replace the custom field with a hard-coded number (say 5), this works.

I've read the help post on date arithmetic and custom variables in Butler, but cannot figure it out. I am just starting with Butler, and I am sure I am missing something simple here.

Regards,

Maciek

Any other way to assign tasks without Business Class?
Asked by Paula:

I'm using Trello as a home educator in the UK. The main feature I feel I am missing on the free version is the ability to assign task to others (husband, children - 4 of us in total). Is the only way to do this with Business class at a cost of almost $40 a month for the family? Or am I missing another option?


Answers:
author: Michael Pryor
body: You can use cards to assign tasks to people. Just add them as a member of the card.   

You can also at mention them on checklists without the advanced features of Business Class. It will still let you mention their names.   

You could also just create lists with each of your family members names and put the cards into their lists.


author: Vero Rivas
body: Hi [@Paula](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4206608)

I don't really understand your problem, but I understand that your husband and children have a trello account, if you all have an account, you can make a team and you have up to 10 boards in the free option to work.

If this is not your question, comment, I try to help you

Administrative Overview
Asked by Kali Russen:

I have created Boards for my team, each board has several cards, and each card has a check list of items that need to be accomplish before the card can be completed.

I have assigned these check list tasks to each member according to their skill sets. As an administrator, I need to see what is outstanding as an overview of ALL boards, without going into each board. (there are over 100). Is there a tool anyone can recommend to see what's outstanding, preferably where I can brake it up by team member.

As is standard, I have some team members who need extra task management due to always being behind.

Well if you cancel Trello Gold subscription, it will be cancelled permanently! You won't be able to use the same subscription twice!

And if you got Trello gold subscription using a referral, let me aware you that you can get maximum of Trello gold subscription of 12 months you already got for 3 months. You can refer as many users you want but you will get the only a maximum of 12 months subscription on an account!

Convert list item to linked cards
Asked by Bryan van Anrooij:

Hello! I have been trying to make a command in Butler to convert list items into cards. It seems that it works correctly and Butler does not give any warnings or errors.

The only problem that I'm experiencing is that the command does not create new cards, while I expect the command to do so :)!

This is my command:

*"when checklist "Subtasks" is added to a card, convert all the items in checklist "Subtasks" into linked cards"*

And this is the log that I see in Butler:

I created 0 cards in list "To do" from the items in checklist "Subtasks" in card [https://trello.com/c/...](https://trello.com/c/..)

The command finished running.

Why does it not create a card?

author: milynnus
body: [@Bryan van Anrooij](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4206308)

At the point of creating the checklist, there is no item for Butler to convert, isn't it? Am I missing something? You probably need to set a trigger once you have built your checklist.


author: Bryan van Anrooij
body: But the rule says that when I add a checklist (called Subtasks) that all the items (in that same checklist) need to be converted to a linked card, right?

"when checklist "Subtasks" is added to a card, convert all the items in checklist "Subtasks" into linked cards"  

Do I need another rule to create this?

E-mail using Butler with title in subject

Hi,

I'm using Butler to add an e-mail button on all my cards. The function sends an email to my OmniFocus system for follow-up. However, I cannot get Butler to use the title of the card as the title in the e-mail. It just allows for writing text.

Copying w/o members (Butler)

Powerup's with Business Class
Asked by Laura Taylor:

Hello,

Newbie question(s) here - as a Trello Business Class User/Member, I notice that one of the benefits is that we have are 'unlimited' power-up's.

* When I try to add certain power-ups, it asks me to pay for that particular service but often mentions that this power-up is free if I'm a Business Class Member. It also will indicate there is a charge, as well.
* I've wondered if power-ups are only a mechanism to attach programs that we separately pay for outside of Trello? --- ex. I have a paid Google Workspace account for my business, but joining Trello Business class does not give me a free membership to Google Workspace.

Thank you!


Answers:
author: Michael Pryor
body: In the free version of Trello you can only add one Power-Up to your board at a time.   

Power-Ups are apps, integrations and more. Some are made by Trello (free) and some are made by other developers (both free and paid). Whether a Power-Up is free or paid is up to the developer that made this Power-Up.   

You are correct that joining Trello Business Class would not give you paid access to other applications. It gives you a bunch of Trello related features including the ability to add more than one Power-Up to your board.
