why can't I login Trello with google account
Asked by Karen Chuang:

After I cleaned my browser history yesterday, I can't login Trello with my google account anymore.  

I can't even find the button of google sign in on login page.   

Is there anybody having the same problem?  

Here's the snapshot of my login page

Sharing public checklists
Asked by Doriano Paisano Carta:

Will Trello ever allow us to create and share public checklists that other users can easily copy to their trello account? For example, I was the one who created a popular public checklist on wunderlist for all of the best picture Oscar winners that tons of users copied to their own wunderlist accounts.

I know Trello has a basic import/export option but it's not as quick or easy as it should be. We should be allowed to copy any checklist or card or even board to our own trello account.


Answers:
author: Torben_trello
body: In general, we do allow to copy cards, lists or boards: <http://help.trello.com/article/802-copying-cards-lists-or-boards>

Also you could copy a public board. A good example of this feature are our inspiration boards, that you could copy to your account to continue working on: <https://trello.com/inspiration>
How do I add a calendar for just specific cards and NOT a whole board?
Asked by Lindsey Townsley:

My company manages our editorial calendar via Trello. Each editorial story has it's own card and each month has it's own group of cards. I'd like to turn the cards into a calendar so we can see it layed out.

The caveat is that these cards are part of a larger marketing board with other projects on it. I don't want to see the other marketing card due dates when activating the Trello calendar, I only want the editorial cards.

Is this possible?


Answers:
author: Francis Peixoto
body: the calendar powerup will respect board filtering. if you can filter out the cards you don't want to see, they won't appear on the calendar either.

Here's an example on my personal task board. For the purpose of this exercise, I've applied a filter to only show my personal tasks, and hide my work related tasks:

comments: author: Lindsey Townsley
body: Thank you, Francis! It's great to know that filtering is an option and I think this will solve the problem. Can you please share how-to steps on how to filter?

Auto-Populate List from Labels on Other Lists
Asked by Nate V. Robinson:

Hello! .. I want a List to populate or copy cards from other Lists by label. Possible? For example, I have 10 lists on a board. Within each List, I label a particular card with "Don't Forget" and then I have a List on the Board named You Forgot that has all the cards labeled "Don't Forget"

Thanks in Advance, Nate


Answers:
author: Mike
body: Hi Nate!

This isn't possible natively within Trello, as we don't have any built-in automation features, but you could look into the third-party tool called Butler for Trello: <https://butlerfortrello.com/>

This lets you build automations like you describe, so might be a great solution for you!

Set up card reminders?
Asked by Lisa Steiner:

Is there a way to set a reminder on individual cards that will email a specific user and remind them to update it? I want project managers to post a status update once a week, and have an auto reminder if they have not commented with a status update in X amount of days. Thanks!!!


Answers:
author: NotTheRealStephenSifersNOPENOPENOPENOPE
body: Due Date Notifications  
If you set a due date on a card and you are a member of the card (or subscribed to the card), you will receive a notification about the card twenty-four hours before it is due. Notifications for due dates only occur twenty-four hours before the card is due and if you are not subscribed to the card or have not been added you will not receive a notification.

author: Hartmut Leister
body: Via Butler Automation you can create rules, that are automatically executed.

In Your case that would be

* Trigger: Card added to the board
* Actions: set due date to \<1 week from now\> and join the card

However, it doesn't yet allow to set a reminder.

Can't remove board creator from board
Asked by Jennifer Leigh:

We recently had a team member resign who had created several boards on our team. I do not seem to be able to remove her from the boards she created:

There's a little blue double "\^" oo the bottom of her icon, and as shown above there is no "remove user" option when I click on her icon.

What am I missing?

Is it possible to add a checklist to a List instead of adding it to a Card?
Asked by Zach Hurley:

I've been trying to use Trello more because it seems to be a power house tool for GTD. My job personal life and some of my professional life doesn't require big projects that seem to fit into the List\>Card\>Checklist dropdowns that Trello uses. I would prefer to add a checklist directly to a List instead of having to add a Card and *then* add a checklist. Drilling down so many times isn't always needed.

Perhaps I'm missing something or some way to make it function or a keyword that I am not using to answer this myself. If you can help, I'd appreciate it!


Answers:
author: Devon Henderson
body: Hello, Zach!

Many folks who use Trello as a task manager do not use checklists to manage tasks; rather, we use cards as tasks and treat each card like it's a "checkbox" of sorts. Each person has their own way of handling how to mark completed tasks - for me, I put each task (represented as a card) in a Completed list, which I review during my Monthly Review and then archive in bulk.

So, it's not quite the same thing as checking off a box, but in practice it does the same thing. You can also archive each task card as you complete them, which will feel very much like ticking the checkbox when it's complete.

I hope that helped give you some ideas on how you can use Trello for GTD! I've used it as my sole GTD program for a few years now, and Trello really is great for it. It just takes some adjusting as to how tasks are laid out :)

Can Calendar Power Up use other dates rather than just "Due Date"?

Can I create a list that automatically archives cards?
Asked by Harry Browning:

Hi All,

Is it possible to create a list that automatically archives cards?

I want to have 3 lists:

To-Do, Doing, Done.

When cards get moved to the 'Done' list, it would be great if they could get automatically archived.

This would save the click-intensive process of going into each individual card and clicking 'archive'. (I know you can hover and press 'c' on web, but I'm not aware of similar shortcuts on mobile?)

---

Also, a follow-up related question is, can I make it so if one clicks completed on the card's due date, it also gets automatically archived?

--

Thanks for the help,

Harry


Answers:
author: Torben_trello
body: Natively this is not available in Trello. You might want to check out this 3rd party tool, that might help with automating the steps mentioned: <https://butlerfortrello.com/>


author: Devon Henderson
body: I would like to second Torben's suggestion - Butler for Trello is absolutely the perfect tool for this, for a couple of reasons. First, it will work on every single platform because it's a "user" of the board. It doesn't require any sort of installation on your devices to work. So, once you set it up for the first time, you can immediately use it from anywhere you use Trello. Second, it's super easy! Here's how:

1. Visit <https://www.butlerfortrello.com> and get set up through there.
2. Add Butler to the board you want to make this Done list on (it's best to add Butler from the dashboard on butlerfortrello.com; sometimes the search will lag when trying to find the bot as a user on the Trello website)
3. Create your Done list on your board.
4. Add this to a card title in your Butler list:

**when a card is added to list "Done", archive all the cards in list "Done"**

Then, every time you add a card to your Done list, Butler will archive it for you. You can add cards to your Done list on mobile, via email, anywhere - Butler will do its work :)

Hope this helps!

Is it possible to link different boards one to another?
Asked by Jody Norman:

I have multiple boards, and some of them relate to each other. Is there a way to connect them?


Answers:
author: Caity
body: Hi Jody,

You could include those boards within the same team to group them together, or add a link to Board B on a card on Board A, and vice versa, so that you can easily access one from the other.

Beyond that, there isn't a way to establish a connection between two boards within Trello, although you can automate certain processes between boards using third-party tools such as Zapier or Butler for Trello.
Are there plans to make Trello display user-friendly URLs?
Asked by Hugh:

In Trello URLs display full of escape characters, but nowadays not in the browser URL bar.

For example a character like the apostrophe will display in Trello as %E2%80%99

However, in Google Chrome, the apostrophe character will display as, well, an apostrophe.

Check the following URL, for example. Here in Trello (and in the Trello cards) the apostrophe displays encoded:

<http://lingopolo.com/thai/word/i%E2%80%99m-not-free-this-week-male-polite-form>

When you click on it however, at least in Chrome and Firefox, the apostrophe displays in the user-friendly format.

That's not on the short-term roadmap at the moment, but I'll pass that suggestion on to our team!

Microsoft Planner to Trello
Asked by Robyn Neill:

Hi,

I have been using Microsft Planner for managing projects. I have recently hit a card limit, and want to come back to Trello. There are so many limitations in Planner that we would never experience in Trello.

To do this, I need to get my cards fro Planner into Trello.

Is there an export tool, add-on or some tech sorcery to make this happen?

I am in a bind, and I need these cards all in Trello, so I can start adding new cards. I have a task list now living in excel of things that need to be added.

Any help would be great,

Thank you!

Answers:
author: Raj Mandalia
body: Anything further on this from Atlassian - seems to be low hanging fruit to steal market share from Planner.


author: Caity
body: Hi Robyn,

Currently, there isn't a tool available specifically for transfering data from Microsoft Planner to Trello.

If you're comfortable with code or have access to a developer, you can use the Trello API to import the tasks that are currently in your spreadsheet into Trello. Our API is fully documented at <https://developers.trello.com/>.

Another option would be to copy all of the task names from your spreadsheet and then paste them as the title for a single new card. That will give you the option to create multiple cards at once, one for each line:

![file-JdpUSyrVDx](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/613iE49345D5AFFA0E70/image-dimensions/431x271?v=v2 "file-JdpUSyrVDx")

One thing to keep in mind is that this will only import information from a single column, so you'd want to go back and add the details to each card later.

Custom fields in mobile app
Asked by Nathan Ondricek:

Hello!

My team and I have been using the custom fields power up in our cards to track a number of data points that are present in all of our projects. However when I open up trello in my mobile app (android or iphone) the custom fields are not shown or available anywhere. Is there a way to get those to appear in the mobile app?

Thanks in advance for your help!


Answers:
author: Torben_trello
body: Hey Nathan,

Right now the Power-Ups including Custom fields are not available in mobile apps. Trello does support most mobile browsers, so feel free to access Trello.com from the browser of your mobile devices to see custom fields.

comments: author: Stefano Tortarolo
body: Hey Torben,  

I know it's always tricky with these things, but do you have any plans to allow custom power-ups on mobile?


author: Manuel Wanskasmith
body: I second this request. I created an awesome board and cards on the web view with 3 custom fields per card and enabled "Card Front Badge." I was bummed out when I viewed the board in the iOS app and it did not show the fields. I don't think "bummed out" is the user experience Trello is shooting for!

Love the feature, would love it even more with parity on mobile!

The Help doc for Custom Fields sets the expectation:
> Enable "Card Front Badge" if you'd like to see that information on the front of the card.


author: Drew Shafer
body: Checking back in on this request.

We use custom fields as well at our company, and this would just be an awesome feature if the mobile app also included it.

Can you confirm if this is being worked on?

On a side note: I think its great that the Trello app has a native calendar built it, but it is very limited.

Is there anything in the works for the calendar to function more like Googles Calendar app?

We currently use the Planyway power up, which 2-way syncs the Trello and Google calendar...but it's a bit clunky.

What are the odds that Trello releases a calendar that can stand alone next to Google's calendar type?


author: Anders Bornholm
body: A mobile app user experience that completely excludes data that is available on the boards is not a good way to go... I find this problem extremely limiting when trying to promote Trello in my organization over more specialized tools (like Pipedrive for sales).

File Field Limit
Asked by Michael Confessore:

I am using a File Field Definition on a confiform and I would like to limit the user to only be able to add one file per form. Is there a way to set this via validation rule?


Answers:
author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Hi

As this field type is really a multi-value holding field (you can have multiple attachments per file field per record), you can use *asCount* virtual function to check how many files holds this field on form submission

The easiest way is to add a ConfiForms Field Definition Rules macro with "Validate" action with condition set to something like (assuming your field field is named "myfile")

```
myfile.asCount:>1
```

(dont forget to set error message parameter on the macro!)

Alex
