out-of-the box pull-down list to standardize selection?
Asked by Sandra Lawrence:

Hi - wondering if there is a pull-down list to standardize selections on Confluence.

Also wondering if there is a way to offer a "select all that apply" capability to a standardized list of options on a confluence page?


Answers:
author: Kishan Sharma
body: Hi Sandra, currently there is no such feature in confluence to check/uncheck all checkboxes. There's already a [suggestion](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-37184) from community to Atlassian, you can vote for that issue and watch it. I have seen comments in the community that this can be done via javascript or html macro, but haven't found any relevant example.

other check box macros available other than task?
Asked by Sandra Lawrence:

I am interested in having a series of checkboxes that can be used to identify 1 or more items on a page. My challenge is they are not a 'task' meaning they don't get completed by someone. They are a source of identification. Is there something I can do to offer a standardized checklist on items that are not 'task' action-oriented?

For example - I want to show all types of contract artifacts for a particular project.

Options are: contract, SOW, RFI, PO.....

I would like to be able to show these like in the example with the ability to 'check it off'

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

You can create a predefined list of values and after that just select the option you need to label your items.

comments: author: Sandra Lawrence
body: If I tie them to action items macro and label the page for rollup capabilities of other true action items, they become folded into the action items. These are not action items as they do not have any assignment; they are purely items that help characterize the project based upon standardized selection

Trello Checklist sorting
Asked by Gianluca:

Hi Community,

this is a personal advice for checklist sorting. I'd like to have a new checklist in the first place instead of the last one when I create it. Otherwise, I have to scroll till the end of the page to find it.

What's your opinion?

Thanks.

Hi there,

That was an option with the ButlerBot, but I haven't seen this with the Butler Power-Up.

I think, Gianluca, it would be best when you set up a feature request for the Butler Power-Up since this is a function that others would benefit from as well.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Gianluca](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1435316) hmm You used to be able to use Butler for this, but I can't see the option in the Power up anymore to set the position of a checklist. [@Katrin Anger](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2708783) do you know if it's still possible?

Here's a Trellinator command to do it that you could install globally to move every added checklist to the top:

<https://gist.github.com/iaindooley/89c1ac771c41ddad4c1f15d55bcb8fba>

You could install this as a global command so it would happen on any board where Trellinator was a member. You can read more about Trellinator here:

How to handle/ export with many pictures?
Asked by Peter Batsch:

One question from my side:

We have plenty of pictures in one trello-card regarding one customer;

we would like to export them into a common folder for customer in the server archtitecture.

is it possible to export them all into a folder (like Strg+A) without copying each single picture?

Lost Trello!
Asked by Kate Lancaster:

I'm logged out of Trello and can not log back in.

The systems does not recognize my email address.

I have tried with caps and without.

How can I recover my board?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Kate Lancaster](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3419571) you can login using either email address or username. One tip would be to go into your email and look for the "welcome" email from Trello you received after signing up. This will both tell you which email address you used to sign up and will also remind you of your username. You can only reset a password using email, not username.

comments: author: Kate Lancaster
body: Thanks [@Iain Dooley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1416112), thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately I get a message that there is no account linked to my email address (the one I've been using for some time.)

Any other ideas?


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Kate Lancaster](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3419571) sounds like you're still trying to use email address. You can login with username, and follow my advice above to find out which email address was linked to your account. It sounds like you probably have more than one email address and signed up with one that you're not actively using anymore.


author: Kate Lancaster
body: Thanks [@Iain Dooley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1416112)

I only have the one work email, which is/was linked to the account. It's no longer recognised.

I can not see the username in the Welcome email. I've tried a few that I commonly use, and none of these work


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Kate Lancaster](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3419571) okay so just to clarify the situation:

You have a "welcome to trello" email sent from taco@trello.com to an email account that you say is no longer recognised as an account despite the fact that you didn't delete it?

Can you see any Trello notification emails that you have received in the past? Those would have your username in them which you can use to login so long as you haven't forgotten your password.

However if you can't find any email notifications that tell you your username and you can't remember your username OR you can find your username but can't remember your password and the email account isn't recognised, then the only option really is to email support@trello.com and hope they can help!!

Generating card titles for subtasks with Butler
Asked by Anne Martel:

When I automatically create new cards for checklist items using a Butler rule I would like to set the card title to {cardname}:{itemname} but so far every permutation comes up with just the item name in the title of the new card

I'm not even sure that this is what is meant by "using pattern"

How do I create a new card and specify the title?


Answers:
author: Katrin Anger
body: [@Anne Martel](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3419352)

Hi Anne, try {cardname}:{checklistitemname}.

Using pattern means, that the created checklist items will appear in a naming system, a pattern.

Using the pattern {cardname}:{checklistitemname} would show up as something like "Tasks Today:Call Mr. Smith", whereas "Tasks Today" was the card name and "Call Mr. Smith" was a checklist item before.

There are many patterns that can be created with variables.

- Let me know if that works for you!

comments: author: Katrin Anger

Hi Anne,

I had been working on the same issue and wanted to provide you with a final solution. Here's what is working for me:

![Bildschirmfoto 2019-08-06 um 11.43.08.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/62486iF3FE24091D18AD07/image-dimensions/519x291?v=v2 "Bildschirmfoto 2019-08-06 um 11.43.08.png")


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Anne Martel](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3419352) the "using pattern" refers to the text that will be set on the linked checklist item, not the created card. The created card always contains the name of the checklist item and I don't believe there's a way to change that.

I did a post recently about how to create subtasks with Trellinator here:

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-articles/Trello-Subtasks-with-Trellinator/ba-p/1020531>

That script could be modified to set the name of the created cards to contain the name of the trigger card.

LABEL as a Creation Date
Asked by Bill McCarty:

We are a manufacturing facility and we use Trello for tracking open quotes from our customers. i have a Label that i typed on the Label "CREATION DATE xx/xx/xx"

i wanted to use this as the date that i created the record - so i want the date that i put in (xx/xx/xx) to be STATIC and not change every date to the current date.

Is that a way to create a Static Date - - for this Label.

Is there a way to downsizing the cards in the main board?
Asked by Irma Lopez:

I don't want to see all the custom fields in the main board


Answers:
author: Katrin Anger
body: [@Irma Lopez](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3382055)

Hi Irma, custom fields are only displayed on the top of a card if enabled in the settings. If you don't want to see them, simply disable the option.

Generally, you would only see those custom fields on the front of the card that carry a value. Is that what is bothering you, or is it the general issue of having these fields displayed in the card?

comments: author: Irma Lopez
body: Hi Katrin,

Thank you!,

Well, I want to see the custom fields but once that I enter into the card not in the main board view. Now each list looks like if it has a really long cards full of information so many details (custom fields) and I can not visualize all the job's name for each card.

I do not want to see those details just the job's name for each card in the list.

Is it that possible?

If I disable the option I would not be able to see any detail information once that I enter to the card.

Thank you,

Irma


author: Katrin Anger
body: [@Irma Lopez](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3382055)

Hi Irma,

If I get you right, what you need to do is to uncheck this option for each custom field that you don't want to have displayed from the board's view:

![CustomField-Uncheck.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/59166i91D7EFDB788ECB5F/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "CustomField-Uncheck.png")

I just tested this, created 2 custom fields; one with the check, the other without and it doesn't show up on the board's view.

If this answer doesn't answer to what you are asking, can you add a screenshot?

body: Katrin,

Thank you very much for your help!!!!! That's exactly what I wanted to do!!!
Email to Board not working
Asked by Jeff Guevara:

after sending an email to a board the card never shows up in the desired column. Does not show up in the app or on the web. Tried emailing from Apple Mail and from Gmail. Also tried changing the email to board address and it still is not working. it has worked for months previously and stopped working just today. Any suggestions?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Jeff Guevara](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3415810) [@Eduardo Quintella](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3416134) [@Jeff Guevara](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3415810) one thing that I have found problematic with email to board in the past is that Trello can determine that a new email is part of a pre-existing conversation, and will attach a comment to an existing, but archived card, silently so you will not see that it's happened. If this is the case, then the activity will still show up in the board's activity feed, are you able to check and see if this is what's occurring for you?

If this isn't the case (and since we have 3 almost simultaneous reports of the same issue, it seems likely it isn't) then there is probably a bug in the system that needs to be brought to the attention of the Atlassian team.

Board is a view for issues and board source is a filter. So when you look at that filter in JQL it will show all the issues that are there in your board. JQL can be exported in few formats like CSV that you can download.

You can further use JQL to look for issues in a sprint, open sprint and close sprint. More information here: <https://confluence.atlassian.com/jiracoreserver/advanced-searching-functions-reference-939937722.html#Advancedsearching-functionsreference-closedSprintsclosedSprints()>

Hiding Lists
Asked by Jay Goouge:

Is there a way of hiding lists on large Trello boards. E.g. I use it for Kanban but in order to focus I would love to filter or hide some of the lists to only focus on what is in progress.


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Jay Goouge](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3316149) you could always just drag the most important lists over to the left, then reorganise them again when you're moving things around. Alternatively you could have a "focus" board where you move lists during a sprint and then move them back to the main board for a planning session.

comments: author: Jay Goouge
body: Thanks Iain. I ended up setting up a 'backlog' board and then used the 'butler' power up to create a rule that when I move a task to 'in progress' on the backlog board it moves to the main board. It works fine but I also use 'Hello Epic' power up to structure work and that doesn't carry over to the new board so not perfect.

There was an add-on that used to let you chose what lists were visible which was great, it seems like the developer has stopped maintaining it though and now full of bugs. It would be great to see Trello enable this somehow in the filter system.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Jay Goouge](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3316149) if you want to maintain your subtask list in the new board then you could just link to cards from a checklist:

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

It does basically the same thing as hello epics from an interface perspective anyway. The only thing that butler subtasking can't do is "bubble up" recursively because Butler won't react to changes made by Butler. If you wanted this sort of "Bubble up" command chaining effect where subtask changes on lower cards could recursively impact cards further up the chain you could use Trellinator to do the same thing:

Trello to JIRA plug-in not compatible

body: Hello Roberto,

Could you let me know if you had recently put your Jira instance behind a firewall (meaning making it unavailable from access to the public)?

That is the main reason why the Jira power-up would stop working.

If that is not the case, feel free to create a ticket at <https://trello.com/en-US/contact/>

Cheers

Thanks for your feedback. This is strange. In JIRA it's clearly stated the the App is incompatible and an update has been requested to the developer, which is Atlassian in this case. Irony :)

I will check with our developers if they have modified something in the firewall rules recently so that we can see where the problem may lie.

Duplicating a card?
Asked by Stolen Cardiff:

Hi.

Just started using Trello. . . .

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to have one card on more than one list?

I would like to have some of my cards on two lists, and when I edit a card, I want all duplications to sync with the edited version. Using the 'copy' feature doesn't allow this.

I thought this would be a pretty basic feature, but I can't find it.

thanks in advance.


Answers:
author: Katrin Anger
body: [@Stolen Cardiff](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3413413)

There is currently no default feature in Trello that could accomplish this, but when using the Butler Power-Up this could certainly be accomplished.

What you need to do is copying the card and link the two cards to each other. And then you would have to set up additional commands (one for each feature, like comments, labels, description, etc.) that sync what is there to the card(s) linked.

There is also the [Mirror Power-Up](https://unito.io/blog/sync-trello-cards-with-unito-mirror-power-up-for-trello/) that could help you with this task.
