Can I Develop A Theme For Confluence Cloud?
Asked by O?uz:

Hi!

I am a developer who is trying to develop a theme for Confluence Cloud for my company (For making our documentation public).

I did my research about themes and what I can tell from my research is I can create a theme for Confluence Server (Eg: [Writing a Confluence theme](https://developer.atlassian.com/server/confluence/writing-a-confluence-theme/)) using Java and XML. But I need to create a theme for Confluence Cloud.

Regarding that, I reached to a broad discussion ([Is creating a Theme for Confluence Cloud still possible?](https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/is-creating-a-theme-for-confluence-cloud-still-possible/36460/7)) which discusses the topic. **Atlassian Staff Elanie** states that there is no API for theming right now ([Elanie's Answer](https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/is-creating-a-theme-for-confluence-cloud-still-possible/36460/25?u=ouz)).

Is it impossible to develop a theme for Confluence Cloud right now? Does lookAndFeel module ([Look and Feel](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/theme/)) have any attributes that are working? (We need to change background of a space and maybe add a logo somewhere)

I want to know if we certainly **cannot** develop a theme for Confluence Cloud. Also I am curious about how the app [Refined](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1221322/refined-for-confluence-cloud?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) does this job if there is no available API right now.

Refined has to be working within the delivered functionality of the API. I believe their app allows you to create a 'Refined Theme' in their application. It then uses this information to apply different settings and configurations through the API. I would suggest looking at this <https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/api-group-settings/#api-wiki-rest-api-settings-lookandfeel-get> because I believe this is where they apply most of the settings you create in their app.

Butler Command: Join Member who Created Card
Asked by mitch_wagner:

I want to use Butler with my team. One thing I would like to accomplish is the automation that adds members to the card if they created it.

So When anyone creates a card, add the person who created the card to it as a member.

I tried "when a card is added to the board by anyone, join the card" but that added me to the card no matter who creates it, not the person who created the card.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Try this

```
when a card is added to the board, add member @{username} to the card
```

How can I rotate atttached pdf in a card?

The pdf file I have attached in a card is upside down. I cant rotate the attached pdf to read.

How can I rotate atttached pdf in a card?


Answers:

Bulk task upload
Asked by Bob Seddon:

I am trying out Trello as an alternate to my stale todo manager for a GTD set up. MY old system has lots of project and task data that I have downloaded to a CSV file. Is there a template and process available to import tasks in bulk into Trello?


Answers:
author: Mike
body: Hi Bob,  

Trello's import options are a little limited, depending mostly on how complicated what you intend to import is. From a CSV file, you have the option of copying a column of card titles and pasting them in all at once to bulk create cards:

![file-JdpUSyrVDx](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/78559iA2E8D6791640F2B3/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "file-JdpUSyrVDx")

There's not an easy way to bulk import more complicated data without the use of either Trello's API, or something like Zapier. You could create a Zap to watch for new rows in a Google Sheet, and action data in various columns however you want. For example, set up a new Google Sheet and set it so the first column becomes the card name, the second the description, the third a due date, and so on.

Then, copy your CSV data into that Google Sheet, and the Zap will handle all the heavy lifting.

IFTTT Usage limit exceeded
Asked by Gabor Halasz:

I have used the IFTTT and Trello combination for many years for syncronizing my different cloud-based apps with Trello. (I have a free Trello account)

In the last couple of weeks the service keeps failing with a "Usage limit exceeded" error message in IFTTT's activity feed.   

Is it some error, or did I misconfigured something, or did you modify the limits of the free account?   
In the latter case, can I overcome the limits with a Trello Gold subscription?

Thanks


Answers:
author: Kevin Hall
body: I've seen something similar in getting IFTTT to Tweet the contents of a card and they nearly always fail with "Usage limit exceeded". My best guess to this is that what they mean for (for me at least) is that I've exceeded the 240 character limit. When I've posted a new Trello card with just one word in it appears fine on Twitter. If I email something to a board that's quite long it doesn't get automatically truncated for Twitter, it just fails. I set up much the same thing with Microsoft Flow and when it errors it does say the content is too long to post to Twitter. Unfortunately this is just a description of symptoms and what I've been able to find out - it would be good if Trello and IFTTT could worth together to make the errors richer and more informative.

author: Garrett
body: Hey Gabor,

Sorry but this doesn't sound like this is a limit specifically from Trello. Instead it sounds like the actions you are taking in IFTTT are reaching some limit that exists there. I'd recommend reaching out to their support team about that error, and hopefully they'll be able to give some additional explanation.

comments: author: eamonn_edwardo
body: Hi Garrett,

I'm similar getting a similar problem. I'm a paid IFTTT user \& free Trello.

<https://help.ifttt.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001448453-What-happens-if-I-hit-a-usage-limit->

I don't believe IFTTT imposes any limits, rather it's set by the services being called.

Perhaps Trello had made a recent change you haven't been notified about?

How do I turn iOS filter to AND?
Asked by anika_roth:

The default for a multiple filter search seems to be OR: if I click two filters, it will pull up anything with either filter. On the computer version of Trello, I can change this to AND at the bottom of the filter search, so that it only pulls up cards with BOTH filters. How do I do this on the mobile app (iOS)?


Answers:
author: Garrett
body: Hey Anika,

I totally understand wanting to have that same option available in the mobile app, but for now iOS will only support the default filtering which is OR. I'll pass your interest in this along to our team for consideration.

comments: author: gabrielpaim
body: I totally agree with the fact that iOS client should work the same way as web client. Could you please comment here for the community if your request was accepted and an eventually due date for it? ??

Printing cards receipt printing
Asked by Ronny Adonis:

Our organization is currently using Trello for small individual jobs. From there we input each job details and there is an aspect of payment also input. This is now being managed with a custom power-up allowing us to input a deposit, full payment of unpaid. Were looking for a way as the user enters the payment detail that he/she can press print which will gather the card info and print. printing to a standard 80mm receipt printer Rolls.

Require asssitance if such powerup exist or anyone can custom design this for us.


Answers:
author: Garrett
body: Hey Ronny,

Sorry but I'm not familiar with any Power-Up that exists like that. If you're looking to go the custom route, you'll likely need to explore bringing in a developer to help with that.

Sorry I can't give a more direct solution, but let me know if you have any other questions!

You can add some syntax to your card like this:

Open up a card automatically when adding a card
Asked by JC:

Hello Trello community,

Is there an option to automatically open up the detailed view of a card when you press "add a card?

Currently I can only open up a card AFTER I add the card, i.e. I need to click on the card again or hover over the card and press enter again.

I know there is also the option of pressing "shift + enter" while submitting a card which will open it immediately after creating it.

But I would like the option to get taken immediately to the detailed card view when press "add card". That is, to see the detailed card view window pop up immediately when adding a card.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks!

JC


Answers:
author: Deepanshu Natani
body: Hi [@JC](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3694257)

At present, it is not possible.

You need to manually open the detailed card view.

comments: author: Jon Anderson
body: Do you know if there are any butler actions that can make this happen?


author: Esme Crutchley
body: Unfortunately, because the base Butler rule is 'when a card is added to the board' you would have to add the card to the board before you could run anything on it, and even then, there's nothing within 'rules' that would allow you to open the card straight away.

Sorry :(
Problem sorting list decending using Butler Button
Asked by Steve Phillpott:

I have set-up a butler action as follow:

![Capture.PNG](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/77784iDFF179F944411EDF/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Capture.PNG")When I run it, it goes for a few seconds then I get a message "There was an Error running the command" ++Details++, but the details link does not work and the whole system freezes. After a while the window refreshes, message goes and the list is not sorted. If I sort Ascending using the ... menu option to sort by customer field it works, however an option to sort decending is not available for this field (a date field). Any ideas?


Answers:
author: Steve Phillpott
body: Ah...answered my own question. It appears if the sort task involves too many moves (which mine would considering I had just run a Ascending Sort), it kinda gives up half way. I just ran a few more, with errors,m before it actually had the whole list sorted.

Seems crazy that sorting some 200 cards is considered "too hard" if the order is far off the required resulting sort order??? in 2020? Come on!
Saved Info on Right Side
Asked by Print Barrel:

When I was using Trello through a third party, they had added a spot on the right side so that I could save standard information for most projects. How do I add that feature?


Answers:
author: Esme Crutchley
body: Hi [@Print Barrel](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3694224)

Unfortunately, that question is a little vague, is there any chance you could be a little more specific, do you have any screenshots? It sounds like Bulter buttons, but I could be completely wrong!

Esme :)

comments: author: Print Barrel
body: They had templates on the right side for different types of projects that someone would typically be worked on. Their graphic artists were so bad, I didn't stay with them over a week so I didn't take any screenshots.


author: Esme Crutchley
body: Hi [@Print Barrel](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3694224)

This is what the right hand side of my open cards looks like, can you indicate where the extra sections were? We might be able to narrow down what it was if we know where it was?

![Screenshot 2020-01-06 at 06.40.08.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/77899i088B304DC5D1B53C/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2020-01-06 at 06.40.08.png")

Esme :)


author: Print Barrel
body: From what I can tell, it was just another list that they created with cards labeled for the types of projects.  

Glad it wasn't anything too complicated!  

Thanks for your help.


author: Esme Crutchley
body: Aha, so are you talking about a list with templates in it, or on the back of the card? I think I might have had my wires crossed!

If they had a list on the right hand side of the board with all the cards for the different types of projects, I would expect it to look something like this:

![Screenshot 2020-01-07 at 09.36.26.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/78031i2A6761325F4ACC28/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2020-01-07 at 09.36.26.png")

I have a list of cards that 'repeat' at a specific time, because I'm using Trello on my own. However, I can totally understand where a list with different projects would be useful. In that case, all you'd have to do is add another list called 'Template Projects' or something similar and add specific cards for each project with all the pre-made checklists etc. that you want to have for each project, then when you wanted to use them you could 'copy' the card and move the copy to where you wanted it.

Alternatively, you could create card templates within the board. When you click on the little icon on each list which looks like this:

![Screenshot 2020-01-07 at 09.40.22.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/78032iBCD1148A3BD5A4EC/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2020-01-07 at 09.40.22.png")Which would allow you to create templates without having a list of cards you created that you copy and moved over into the right list when you need them.

I hope that this is more helpful than my original idea!

Butler: Creating rules that refer to list POSITION, not list name
Asked by Eva Galanes-Rosenbaum:

Back before Trello made Butler more user-friendly, there was an ability to create rules that **referenced a list's position** , rather than its name. (see this Help article for evidence: <https://help.trello.com/article/1173-reference-list-by-position-instead-of-name>)

Now, however, I can't see any way to do so. When I create a command in the Butler interface, it always wants a list name reference (from an automatically-populated dropdown).

Ultimately, I want to create a rule that **on Monday, all cards from List #3 are moved to List #2 and sorted by due date**.

(I want this because List 2 is "THIS WEEK" and Lists 3--52 are weekly lists that I move as the weeks pass, such that the current week is always in position #3.)

Any help would be much appreciated!


Answers:

body: Hi,

I confirm that, according to documentation (<https://help.trello.com/article/1173-reference-list-by-position-instead-of-name>), #1 should work.

I didn't use Butler before the Trello acquisition, so I can't say whether this works or not, but you can type in #2 or 3 or whatever. I don't know if it'll work or not, but you can type in rather than picking a list.

Disable Cover images on emails sent to Trello
Asked by Steve Robinett:

Is it possible to have Trello NOT use any images from an email sent to a Trello board ? I'm a big user of the Outlook Add-in to send emails to my ToDo board and an image in my email sig is set as the cover image by default.


Answers:
author: Esme Crutchley
body: Hi [@Steve Robinett](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3693961)

I have no idea if this would work for you, but you could try a Butler rule looking something like this:

![Screenshot 2020-01-05 at 17.55.11.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/77865i89711368E215A6E0/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2020-01-05 at 17.55.11.png")![Screenshot 2020-01-05 at 17.55.19.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/77866i146F519F26BECF5A/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2020-01-05 at 17.55.19.png")I would have this set up as I don't usually add a cover image the minute I start a card, I usually add a card, then open it then add a cover image. This might help remove any automatic cover image, although I can't guarantee because I've never used this rule!

Thought I'd share just in case!

Esme :)

body: Hi Esme,

That worked PERFECTLY! Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. This really makes my "InBox" list 100% more readable. Since many of the emails I send to the list are from my org, they all have the same images in the official signature. I really appreciate your time and wisdom.

Search Custom Fields?
Asked by Robert Trifiro:

Hello,

I was curious if there is an operator that will allow the searching of data input in a Custom Field?

I am using Zapier to trigger the movement of cards on my board. The trigger contains the data that is in the Custom Field for every card on the board (each card has unique data). But I cannot find any Search operators to look inside custom fields.

This has got to be possible right? Sorry if I'm missing something obvious, and thank you in advance for any help with this.

author: Carlos Garcia Navarro
body: Hi Robert, yes, sorry, when I read it the first time I was thinking of JIRA and didn't notice I was in the Trello section.

I edited my previous answer and included that other post that refers to searching through custom fields. I'll add whatever I can find in my research.
Embed Calendar in Sharepoint
Asked by aaron.charlesworth:

I run a small marketing team in a very large company. We manage our deliverables/process using Trello cards and I'd like to find a way to have those cards populate a calendar that the entire company would be able to see.

The easiest distribution tool I have is our internal Sharepoint instance. Ideally, I'd be able to have my team continue working in Trello and be able to "render" a calendar view of our due dates that the rest of the company can look at and drill into for more details.

I want changes in the Trello cards to automatically change what the rest of the company sees in the calendar in Sharepoint. I'm basically trying to avoid having to manually update a Sharepoint calendar whenever dates or other details change on a specific Trello card.
