Checklist name in boardview
Asked by Jess:

Is there a way to have a checklist name displayed next to the _/_ in board view? My office has a few different checklists and I'd like to be able to see which ones are which without having to click each one.

Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Jess](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4063554) there isn't, but you could for example add a label to the card when each checklist is completed, and you would be able to see the label name on the front of the card:

comments: author: Jess
body: Ok, but what about when the checklist isn't complete? When I add the checklist I'll have to add the label too? I suppose that is a sort of workaround but it seems like a little troublesome if I have a lot of cards with various checklists in various stages of completion.

Regardless of if it'll work for me, thank you for your response!


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Jess](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4063554) Oh right sorry I misread your question as "which ones are complete" when you actually said "which ones are which". This Chrome extension puts the next incomplete checklist item names on the front of the card:

Can I change the Google Hangouts Chat notifications for activity from other users only?
Asked by Nir Modiano:

I don't want Google Hangouts Chat notifications for when I make a change to a board. I only want the notifications if someone else makes a change. Is that possible?


Answers:
author: Garrett
body: Hey Nir,

I'm afraid not, the notifications sent are determined by what *actions* you have chosen alerts for. There's not a way to filter out certain members currently.

I'll definitely share your interest in that with the team though!

Get image attachments out of Trello?
Asked by Johanna Riggle Segesser:

Looking to (IFTTT, Zapier, or otherwise) allow for image-attachments in cards (dragged/moved/copied/butler'd to a list on a board) to live all together, preferable with their tags and image names in a Word, Doc, or if needed, OneNote file.

The idea is that I have tons of screenshots of emails and texts that I'm tagging and otherwise organizing so someone else can easily sort by what they want. In this use of the board, I need to allow the person to easily and quickly get what she decides she's going to use into a Word doc - one doc. Alternatively, I suppose it would work to have the cards with their attached images be emailed, sent to Dropbox, or Google Drive. IF the person has to click on a link and winds up back in Trello, the solution won't work.

Thoughts? Knowledge? An easier, better way to do what I'm describing? I'm poking around IFTTT and Zapier now. Also going to see if maybe it's a Butler report.

Muchas thanks!

Account Switcher
Asked by mattjared:

Is there a Trello account switcher feature or power up anywhere? Is making an account switcher on the road map? Example feature set would be Google Calendar, I can quickly hop between two accounts with two clicks.

Impossible to invite an individual or email address?!
Asked by Oc?ane:

Hi, everywhere on Trello's guides is explained that I should be able to invite individuals, email adresses, or members of team to a board, or get a link to send to people I want to invite. And I used all of these options in the past. Now in a recent board I created, when I click on "Invite", the only option that is displayed to me is to add the board to a team or create a new team! I just want to invite one person to it, as I used to do on other boards. Can anyone help please? Thanks!


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Oc?ane](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4064618) yep this is a change they released recently. You can't add people to personal board anymore, so you first add the board to a team, then invite people to it.
Trello Exported JSON data is missing data before September 2018
Asked by Jason Reich:

*(title, description updated, see below)*

Hello, I've been using Trello's exported JSON data to make backups of our boards. In some cases I was processing and making reports from the data, and found that some of the exports are missing data.

I've found missing comments, missing activities, and missing attachments. In one case one card only had its title and description. I've dug into the original JSON (1.3MByte before reformatting) from the export and there are several items I just cannot find.

Has anyone else used their exported JSON data and noticed this? It's very concerning that data is missing in this way. Any suggestions of what might be going on?

**Update:** after closer inspection, it looks like comments and activity from before approx **August 25** , **2018** are being excluded. This is an older board that had most activity from July through Dec 2018, and almost everything from July and August is not there in the export. I've seen a couple comments from very late August, so it doesn't seem to be right at the end of the month.

Any ideas? These comments and activity items are present in the board on Trello, but not there in the exported data.


Answers:
author: Garrett
body: Hey Jason,

Behavior like this is currently expected with exports. Trello has a 1,000 action limit for activity included in an export along with the activity in your board menu. So with older boards, you won't be able to see past a certain point.

The older activity still exists, but to find that you'll need to make a request via our API. I answered a similar question to this previously which covers how you can get that info:

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-questions/My-Board-Activity-does-not-go-past-a-certain-date/qaq-p/1362031>

Hopefully that will help you get that older activity!

Viewing responses on trello cards
Asked by Laura Crabtree:

Hi all, I'm having trouble viewing all the information on my Trello cards. I have a form connected to Trello from a Typeform. Some of my cards are showing all of the response info and others look as though I should be able to scroll over to the right and the information will be there, but theres no bar or option to scroll. Does anyone know how to fix this?!


Answers:
author: Garrett
body: Hi Laura,

Hm, I'm not initially sure what could be causing that trouble. Would you mind sending us a message over at <https://trello.com/contact> and share some screenshots of a card that is correctly showing that info, vs one that isn't?

That will allow us to do some more digging with you!
Trello Card Due Date email reminder Time is different from the Due Date on the Card
Asked by Paulo Dones:

Hi,

I have set the card's due date reminder to an 08:00 PM; however I received an email that the card is due to 08:00 AM of the same Date. I would like to know how to fix this issue. Thank you.


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Paulo Dones](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4064599) how did you set the reminder? Is this with Butler or with a Trello "watch" notification?

comments: author: Paulo Dones
body: No, I chose the card, then added a Due Date to the card, set the date, then added the Set Reminder to "1 day before" and just saved it.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Paulo Dones](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4064599) Okay well this sounds like a bug, I would take screenshots or a screencast, then go back to trello.com/contact and submit the question directly to Trello. If you can do screenshots or a screencast without any sensitive information in them, feel free to post here in case we can see anything that's amiss, but if you can't take those without exposing sensitive information on your boards, don't post here because it's a totally public forum.

How can I change the Admin of our Boards?
Asked by Rick Hansberry:

The previous Admin has left the company and our Member profiles to seem to permit us to Change Permissions to existing Members.


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Kirkie](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1569136) assuming this is a Trello question, the simplest thing to do if no-one on the team has admin access to a board anymore and you can't gain control of the admin account is just to copy the board and leave the old one where it is.

You can also create a new board, and move all the lists over to it.

comments: author: Kirkie

What are your favourite Trello Power Ups to support remote working?
Asked by Craig Willson (AppFox):

Hi everyone!

I'm asking this question out of curiosity to be honest. With the increase in remote working across the world I was wondering which Trello power ups have become even more important to you (and your team) and why?

We are planning to write a blog post on this and share our own experiences and opinions but rather than it being written with just our own perspective, I'm curious to find out your thoughts and experiences. There may even be power ups we are not using but could make a difference to our day-to-day work.

Really appreciate anyone giving their thoughts and feedback!

Many thanks,  
Craig


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Craig Willson (AppFox)](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4002053) I've been working remotely for a long time and helping clients do the same, the thing that always moves the needle for clients in terms of improving remote work is better asynchronous communication between team members. The number one way to achieve that is to create a shared email environment where they can collaborate on external email, without using email themselves.

There are a few options for this in Trello:

1) My product, BenkoDesk, lets people use Trello as a Gmail client for a shared account (like team@, hello@, info@ and so on):

<http://www.benkodesk.com/>

I also have BenkoBoard for individual email and personal task management.

2) SendBoard lets you forward emails into their system and reply directly from Trello cards:

<https://sendboard.com/>

3) and Hipporello lets you run a service desk with customers submitting queries via forms:

<https://hipporello.com/>

comments: author: Craig Willson (AppFox)
body: [@Iain Dooley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1416112) - thanks for sharing. This is a great idea!

I think as time goes on and people use more and more tools to manage their daily work, the need for tools and systems to work in harmony with each other will only increase. The benefits of being able to stay in one or two systems/tools that are integrated with a wealth of others would only benefit team working and collaboration.

Your option of integrating email is a great example of this!

Trello has been a great tool for managing our project work and it's always good to see so many Power Ups available to help people customize it to meet their needs.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts it's appreciated.
Mirror power-up on personal and teams boards
Asked by brydeboel:

Is it possible to use the Mirror power-up between a teams board and a personal board?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@brydeboel](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/63565) use of power ups between boards shouldn't change between team/personal, it will only depend on board access, so if the power up is acting as you, and you're a member of both boards, it should be fine.

I'm trying to make daily activity with due date using card repeater+buttler
Asked by Addo Atha:

As the title says, I'm trying to make a daily activity with a due date using card repeater+butler. the card repeater for auto copying the card every day and the butler for updating the due date. I'm using the command "when a card is copied into list ....... by me, move the due date to the next day" but then I realized that it keeps repeating the same due date. For example: if I set the due date on June 20th, the repeater will copy it and the butler will always update the due date to June 21st even tho it's already 2 days after. any command suggestion? sorry for bad english, it isn't my main. thank you


Answers:
author: Garrett
body: Hey Addo,

Hm, it looks like the issue might be the due date action you're using.

Instead of moving the due date by a certain amount, I'd suggest removing the due date from the original card, and setting your rule to *set* the due date to a certain interval.

For example, the rule would look like, "when a card is copied into list X, set the due date to tomorrow".

Give that a try and let me know if that helps!
I have a Trello account and it has connected to wrong JIRA site using my Atlassian account
Asked by Jacqui Inggs:

I have a Trello account and also have access to two Jira sites, an old cloud Jira site (which I forgot I still had) and on premise server JIRA Software site.

When I connected and validated my JIRA user email address, it connected my account ((Which I use for Confluence) to the Atlassian site and the JIRA cloud site instead of the JIRA server site and I cannot find out where to change or disable this connection in Trello.

Hiding boards others have shared with you?
Asked by nogladpuns:

I'm teaching a friend to use trello and, consequently, have shared a lot of my boards with them as an example. They've shared some of their new boards back with me, to get feedback and share excitement.

The only problem with this is that the board they've shared with me now show up in my list of personal boards. I don't want to leave the board or archive it (not sure if I can archive someone else's board anyways), but I would like it hidden, or separated out into a different section at the very least.

[Here's a screenshot of what I'm looking at.](https://snipboard.io/YbDfnI.jpg)

I don't need their Crafting board right next to my craft projects board - that's unnecessary and confusing.

Any help - or advice on how to push this feedback to the relevant development team(s) - would be appreciated!


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@nogladpuns](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4063626) the only way to hide boards is to leave them, but one way to make your personal boards "more personal" would be to star them, then they will show up right at the top and you can drag them around to prioritise them.

Question about checklist percentage
Asked by Vinicius:

Is that a way to set differents percentages weights to tasks in a checklist? For example, in a checklist with two tasks, I want it to show 90% completed when I check the most time-consuming task.


Answers:
author: milynnus
body: [@Vinicius](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4063580) The simple answer is the % is purely based on number of items completed over the total number of items in the checklist.

In the strict WBS discipline technique that I am taught, each entry in WBS (work breakdown structure) should be a deliverable or work product (you can literally count them is a list) ...only the lowest level is a task where effort is the correct measurement ie mandays (not days).

In Trello for checklist items you can assign to one person with a due date using advance checklist. I don't think you can turn Trello to a true pm tool.

This is a well written article  
<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-articles/A-Review-of-Trello/ba-p/1456044>


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Vinicius](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4063580) there isn't, but if you sub-tasked your cards with Butler like this:

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-articles/Trello-Subtasks-with-Butler/ba-p/1060392>

then you could add a weight to the cards in a custom field and, when the card is archived, update a "percentage complete" field on the parent card by adding the weight from the completed card to the current value in the field.

comments: author: Vinicius
body: Thanks! I'm new to this but I could figured out how to create subtasks and link its completition to the parent card. The only thing I'm missing is how to set a weight to a card.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Vinicius](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4063580) I think the trick is that you have to find the first card linked in the attachments, then \*lookup\* the card with the trigger card link. That way you can increase the custom field value on the parent card by the weight on the child card. If the weights on the child cards all add up to 100 then that means you've got a percentage complete in your custom fields:

Query regarding custom user macro for importing MS Excel data
Asked by Ashutosh Dwivedi:

Hello Confluence Experts,

I have a use case wherein I need to import a MS Excel data into Confluence.

One excel row needs to be created as one new page and columns in that excel needs to mapped/linked to another existing static pages in the the same Confluence space.

By reading some Confluence docs, I got to know that I might need to create a new custom User Macro to perform this import.

Can any expert guide me further Or if someone working on similar macro help me out to do it fast?

Thanks in advance.

author: Dominic Lagger
body: Hi [@Ashutosh Dwivedi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4811411)

You do not need a user macro for this.

What you need is a script (Python or something else) which uses the REST API from confluence to create the pages.

All about REST API is here: <https://docs.atlassian.com/ConfluenceServer/rest/7.16.2/>

You will need the [Create Content](https://docs.atlassian.com/ConfluenceServer/rest/7.16.2/#api/content-createContent) section.

How to find out which button was pressed on a Dialog2?
Asked by Dirk Eyfrig:

I've implemented the last example (A warning message) provided on the [Dialog2 documentation page](https://aui.atlassian.com/aui/latest/docs/dialog2.html#warning).

So far, so nice.

But an action should only happen when the user pressed the "Delete the thing" button, but not when pressing the "Cancel" button.

But how do I find out which button a user pressed?


Answers:
author: Dirk Eyfrig
body: OK, I found the solution myself.

From the example, you have to replace

```
AJS.$(document).on("click", "#demo-warning-dialog button", function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    AJS.dialog2("#demo-warning-dialog").hide();
})
```

by separate handlers for the two buttons

```
AJS.$(document).on('click', '#warning-dialog-confirm', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault()
    AJS.dialog2('#demo-warning-dialog').hide()
// code that needs to be run when action is confirmed
    alert('action confirmed')
})

AJS.$(document).on('click', '#warning-dialog-cancel', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault()
    AJS.dialog2('#demo-warning-dialog').hide()
})
```

Or is there a more elegant solution?

If not, the above code might be added to the documentation page.
