Voting Power-Up Does Not Show Up in Slack Integration with Cards
Asked by Todd Lewis:

As the title says: if you enable the Voting Power-Up on a Trello board, and then use the Slack integration to /trello \[card URL\], the Quick Action list that gets displayed in Slack does not include "Vote" as an action. I'm sure this is a feature request, but it sure would be useful for quick team voting. Thanks!


Answers:
author: Todd Lewis
body: Following up on this request, which is now in kindergarten! My how time flies.

Is there a way to develop this on my own? The challenge as I see it is that the Slack integration in Trello has a pre-built set of messages that it can send, and here I mean you have done a great job of understanding the format of Slack messages and how they are constructed. They unfurl very nicely in Slack. Wonderful!

I can join a card by using the "Quick actions" drop-down in the unfurled card in Slack, so that tells me there is both an ability to call a REST API after selecting that action, and an API on Trello that adds me to the card.

I see that there's [an API method that can add a member's vote to a card](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/trello/rest/api-group-cards/#api-cards-id-membersvoted-post). We're almost there.

For my own selfish purposes, I know that the voting powerup is enabled. For your purposes of modifying the Slack integration, you would need to check at the board level and then conditionally modify the options in the Quick actions drop-down. Fortunately there's [an API method that returns a list of enabled plugins on the board](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/trello/rest/api-group-boards/#api-boards-id-boardplugins-get).

All that remains if I were to build this myself would be to create a custom function that sends the message to Slack. That would require me to recreate all of the work you've done for your wonderful unfurling cards.

Can you please add this feature request to your development cycle?

Agreed, that could be useful for sure. I'll pas that on to the team so they can take that into consideration when working on further improving the Slack app and available quick actions.

Why do my lists stop before the bottom of the screen and need a scrollbar?
Asked by Dick Freed:

My wife is new to Trello. She's adding cards to new lists on a Microsoft Surface. The lists will not extend to the bottom of the screen before getting a scrollbar. The scrollbar does not disappear when she changes magnification of the screen to allow her to see all the cards on the list. I've used Trello for years, but have never observed this behavior.


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Dick Freed](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2842811) I'd say it's probably a browser incompatibility. You might like to send a screenshot along with the platform and browser specs to support@trello.com

How to add an alarm to the card?
Asked by ???????? ????????:

Hello.

How to add an alarm to the card? More precisely a self-renewing alarm clock on the card.

For example, an alarm clock that rings every Wednesday at 7:00.

Thanks for the answer

comments: author: Iain Dooley
body: [@???????? ????????](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2842469) actually you would modify it a bit to make it recurring. In Butler it would be:

Every wednesday at 7pm find card "Notify" in list "My Cards" and post comment "@card"

In Trellinator it would look something like this:

How to get Due Date Notifications to work ?
Asked by Christine Featherston:

Hello,

Myself and my team has started using Trello and we have found it to be very effective for our BPAs. However, one of the things we need does not seem to work effectively. We are not receiving notifications of task due dates at all. I have tried the suggestions from Trello Help: Notifications are not working and it still does not work for us.

In addition, are there any plans in the works that will allow Trello to send notifications other than 24 hours in advance. Any information that can be provided will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Christine F.


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Christine Featherston](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2842386) you have to be watching a card to get a due date notification. If you're waiting for it via email you have to have not viewed the notification anywhere else.

If you are added to a card you will automatically be watching it.

You can do this with Butler, with a command like this:

the moment a card is due post comment "@card"

or:

3 hours before a card is due post comment "@board"

etc. Butler is currently in Beta following acquisition and subsequent integration, you can apply here to get access:

<https://goo.gl/forms/4OT6hmWBmdfjso262>

You can also automate this with the API. I created Trellinator which is an automation library for Google Apps Script. You can see how to set Trellinator up here but it's more technical than Butler:

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Marketplace-Apps-articles/Introducing-Trellinator-Automate-Trello-with-Google-Apps-Script/ba-p/925271>

The code to do the same thing as above with Trellinator would look like this:

<https://gist.github.com/iaindooley/80301375ebd997814b4e0ea60fc4cf71>

The 2 "schedule" functions would be configured either globally or on an individual board, and they would schedule the "actionReminder" function that would post the actual comment notifying card members at the scheduled time.
Power-up in the mobil app
Asked by ??????? ??????????:

Excuse me, if anybody else asked about problem like this earlier (I didn't find any topics) ...  
I'm building my own power-up according to Trello API documentation. I made a button (which will get some functionality later). I can see it in a browser, but in mobile apps (neither in Android nor in iOS) it doesn't appear. If I activate another Power-Up (like Custom Fields, for instance) - everithing is ok. Are there some limitations?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@??????? ??????????](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2841703) their is a plan to bring support for more power ups to mobile, but for now its just voting, custom fields and calendar (I think). Probably Butler will be next, cos you can create buttons with it etc. I wouldn't hold your breath about getting your custom power ups on mobile though -- they brought the first power ups to mobile more than a year ago and haven't done any further since. The Butler acquisition was a pretty big deal I'm guessing and that's going to be a priority, so I'd say you can count on any power up you build not working on mobile for the forseeable future.

comments: author: ??????? ??????????
body: Iain, thank you! But I suppose, Butler is not what I need. Anyway, thanks for detailed answer!


author: george siddiqui
body: Mobile (Android) support for custom \& 3rd party power-ups would be be extremely useful. Hopefully this on the horizon. While the mobile app is really great, this functionality would give me everything I need anywhere.

PS. I'm using **Card Size** by Screenful and **Pomorello** power-ups - which are awesome and free.

Best apps to use in Consolidation.
Asked by Maximum Feedback:

After getting started I noticed the add-ons to be very useful with @trello. I'm wondering is there a specific add on that encompasses the basic fundamentals that we would be using? Like slack, google drive and appear.in or zapier?   

The goal here is to:  

Have a seamless experience without using more than 1-3 add-ons, preferably a single add-on that comprises the bulk of our uses.  

And Go!

Using a webform to add a card
Asked by Steve O'Hara:

Hi, we're in the process of migrating from Smartsheet to Trello. Smartsheet allows the creation of Forms, which has been a really useful function - not to mention it's free!

For example, I setup a simple form for our customer support team to create a support ticket, which is then posted into the relevant Smartsheet as a new task. This also triggers a 'new task' alert to the Team Leader.

Does anyone know of a method of doing this in Trello?.

Thanks - Steve


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Steve O'Hara](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2267080) One thing you'll notice about Trello is that it's very light on features, but strong on integration. It's got one of the easiest to use and most comprehensive API implementations of any product in any category.

The best way to do form submissions into Trello, is using a Google Form.

You can use something like Zapier to take the form submission and put it into Trello, but you can also just use the Google Apps Script API to do this.

There's a number of examples of connecting to the Trello API via Google Apps Script scattered around the web, but you might be interested in this free/open source library I wrote called Trellinator that allows you to quickly and easily create Trello automations in Google Apps Script:

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Marketplace-Apps-articles/Introducing-Trellinator-Automate-Trello-with-Google-Apps-Script/ba-p/925271>

The method for handling your specific scenario would be to create a Google Form, put the entries into a Spreadsheet, then create an onFormSubmit trigger which calls your function to populate Trello (you could then add members to a card which would notify them or do something like use MailApp inside your Google Script to send them an email if you'd rather).

author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Maximum Feedback](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2799315) I run a consulting business automating business processes using Trello and Google Apps Script.

The first product I created allows you to use Trello as a Gmail client (ie. you can send and receive emails from Trello cards):

<https://trello.com/integrations/#benkoboard>

And the main framework that I use for automating business processes (and is actually the basis for Benko Board) is Trellinator:

<https://trello.com/integrations/#trellinator>

Using these, I can create custom business systems that would have traditionally required bespoke web or mobile applications in the tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, at 1/100th of the cost/time. It's quite an incredible platform.

The combination of a "basic building block" approach as well as an amazing API, and the fact that it retains more of it's functionality across all devices than any other project management tool on the market make it a market leader as a business automation platform in my opinion.

Link all boards to single calendar within Trello

I have tried Planyway and was disappointed because they force a 1 hour default change in the times due and that doesn't work for my needs.
