Calendar frequency
Asked by Shali Trotta:

Hi,

I'm trying to add a frequency of an event to my calendar in trello and I can see it's been setup on the card, using the repeat card, but it only shows on the calendar once. Does anyone know how I can repeat the frequency to show in the calendar not only on the card?

Thanks.

The last time I looked into a similar query was that the card repeater power up would not do what you want.   
You can start , for example, with creating 4 downstream cards manually and write some rules that will run weekly to create fifth card with the due date adjusted accordingly.

For that particular query, I did write some code that will allow you to define the number of times to repeat and thereafter to create new copies until it is instructed to stop.

I think powerups might be a solution to the achieve this. Could you please check his blog on trello powerups on syncing cards under multiple boards - <https://blog.trello.com/trello-unito-power-up>.

author: Hannah Humbert - Simpla Workflows
body: If you're looking for a true 2-way sync, Unito's [board sync](https://trello.com/power-ups/595e989fa8f137d2af456fd4/boards-connected-and-synced-with-unito) is the way to go. It will automatically consolidate any card assigned to you into your daily task management board and any change you make in your board will sync back to the original boards allowing you to work out of one board.  

I believe it starts at around $10 p/month and that plan will allow you to connect 10 boards into your main board and sync an unlimited amount of cards. I guess it would just be a matter of weighing up how much time you're spending trying to find what cards you should be looking at/manually duplicating work. If you put it in the context of money, that's $0.30 per day. The next tier would be about $1.50 per day. If you're able to go beyond the basic use-case of just consolidating personal tasks, that's where the real value comes in. There are lots of use-cases, like, creating an overview board to show priority items across multiple departments/projects, syncing cards that require cross-team collaboration, even syncing Trello with other tools like Jira, Airtable, Salesforce, Hubspot, Zendesk, etc. - the list goes on!  

So, after saying all of that, there are other options if a paid solution is not possible :) here are some ideas:  

1. Use the [my cards view](https://help.trello.com/article/819-viewing-all-of-your-cards) and sort by due date  
2. Use butler to create a one-way "sync" that copies cards into your board when you're assigned to cards in other boards

Thanks for posting and welcome to the community.

I think it can be done as suggested in this trello guide - <https://help.trello.com/article/737-adding-checklists-to-cards> i.e. importing checklist items - '**You can easily import items from a list (or a spreadsheet) to a checklist as long as each item is on a separate line. Copy the list items and paste them in to the "Add item" field in your checklist and press 'enter.' A separate checklist item will be created for each listed item.**'.

I have just tried in one of my dummy projects and it worked as expected. Please see the screen shot below for reference.

Archive cards from 2020 to before
Asked by Zo?:

Hello, my trello board is becoming really slow for all my team, and i would like to archive all the cards from 2020 and before, is there a shortcurt i can do, beside doing it one by one ?

Thank youuuuuu


Answers:
author: Hannah Humbert - Simpla Workflows
body: From what I understand, when you archive a card, it still exists on the board - it's just in a sort of "hidden" list. So I don't think archiving your cards will resolve the slowness issue. What I suggest is moving the cards to a separate board - you could call that board "Archives".   

Butler could help, but it might be as simple as just selecting the ellipses on a "done" list and just moving it to your archive baord. Moving forward, you could create a schedule command that says something like "every month, move all cards in the done list to the archive board".

1. How many workspaces can have a premium account and a standard?.

2. If me and my partner we are premium user.. and lets say we have 5 differents worspacke... do you gonna charge for 5 worspaces? Sorry, but its not clear how do you charges.. I dont want to pay 5 times if I am premium (even standard)

3. Can standard account (or free) can be in more than one workspace who admin is a premium?

You should clarify how do you charge to users now and also how many workspaces can we have because me neither my colleagues we dont understand how is working know. Thanks.


Answers:

Simply put, this is what I understand - Standard and Premium entitlement are workspace specific and there is no limit on number of boards therein.

So if you are going to activate for 5 different workspace, you will be charge for each activation.

GitHub powerup: some branches do not appear

Trello Android App - Cannot download attachments from cards using the app
Asked by Stephanie Lodie:

For the month of August I have not been able to download attachments from cards using the Trello Android App. I have the option to download but the download manager on my phone alwasy says fails. If I want to download the attachment I have to open it in the browser then download it.

Why the extra step all of a sudden?

I've uninstalled/reinstalled and cleared the cache. I can download other things on this phone. Just nothing that comes from a board on trello.

Anyone else have this issue? If you did, how did you fix it?

Answers:
author: Michael Pryor
body: Your boards likely were moved into a Workspace:

<https://help.trello.com/article/781-reopening-a-closed-board>


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Trello still has a free plan, and that is probably never going away. See <https://trello.com/en/pricing> for the options and comparison.

For your boards disappearing, that's a totally different question. We need to know what has changed - your login maybe, or has someone claimed your Atlassian account that you were using for Trello. You say "lots", is that all your boards, or just some? Is there a pattern to which boards have gone?
Is there a webhook that triggers explicitly when a member is added/removed to a card?
Asked by Rohan R:

I want to create a webhook that triggers explicitly whenever the user is added/removed from the card. The webhook should also trigger when items are changed on the card if the member is already added.

I know we can create webhooks for the card or the user itself, but I'm particularly interested in webhooks that would trigger if a card is added to his/her list. Something similar to what Asana provides with its user task lists (webhook).


Answers:
author: milynnus
body: [@Rohan R](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4538773)

You might already be familiar with this table. Specific to add member you can see that a webhook with idModel = listid will not work for adding. But for adding a card, the webhook on a list will be triggered.

Why when I change the view of my labels in one board does it change the view in all my boards?

How can I copy a template with custom fields to other boards?
Asked by Vicki Landry:

I have a template card that I need to use across multiple boards but when I copy the template from my home board to another board, the custom fields are messed up. It seems to add additional fields that aren't on the original template. I've tried removing past templates from the board I'm copying too but that didn't work. I also tried copying the template with all of the custom fields completed (a suggestion from a FB gropu) but that didn't work either. What am I missing? Thanks!


Answers:
author: milynnus
body: [@Vicki Landry](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4538605)

To avoid the situation, create a new card and selectively decide on the CF to carry over to the new card. The problem you will face is that {trigger.. prefix will not work for CF but the is a solution for that.


author: Antonio Panea
body: Hi [@Vicki Landry](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4538605) ,

If you want to manage Fields across boards I would recommend you to take a look on Crmble Power-Up. You can manage which fields you can see in each board and also even choose which lists have Crmble Fields and which ones do not.

Hope it helps!

Cheers

author: milynnus
body: [@Vicki Landry](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4538605)

With custom fields activated, when a card is added to the board(including copy from template), any CF in the card gets added to the destination board if a CF of the same name and type does not exist. The rest CF definitions on the destination board unchanged. I have not investigate into the case where the name and type are the same but the options are different for the case of a checkbox.

comments: author: Jeffrey Hubbard
body: if the name is the same, but the options are different, it will create 2 filed with the same name but different options.


author: Jeffrey Hubbard
body: Since custom fields became integrated instead of an addon, every card that ever had a custom field on that board from another board will propagate onto the board. I have a board that had custom fields turned off and now that it is permanently on, every card that ever got copied to the board with a custom field created a custom field on this board. I get the pleasure of deleting 40 custom fields.

I would recommend deleting all the custom fields and then copying your card over, then it will only create the new fields. or just clean up the extra fields and add to your maintenance routing to clean up stray fields that are created by copying. Atlassian is not interested in improving custom fields to include board or card controls as evidenced by them implementing new features and ignoring improving custom fields. The fact that you now can't keep the fields off or control their propagation has created a lot more work for me. Oh Joy!

Turning off Google Search for a Public Board
Asked by Abby Bates:

Hi!

I currently sell "100 Captions for Photographers" in my education shop. I have all of the captions categorized in Trello. When a buyer purchases the captions via shopify they get a PDF with a link to the trello board. The board has to be public in order for the board to pull up from that link. I have tested it and when it is made private, they no longer have access from the PDF.

The problem is, being a public board means that anyone can do a google search and find these captions for FREE! This is obviously a major issues.

What is the solution?

The attachments on your private boards will require that the person have access to the board. This requirement has just been added. There is an "External Share" power up that allows you to share the card and its attachment. That might work for you.

The other option is to have a service that will download the same via a URL. The endpoint to keep your credentials hidden from your buyer.

Trello cards - Who added the card?
Asked by Lee Jones:

Hi all, I am looking for a quick visual indication of who added the card within the board. For example is there a way to colour code in some way the card automatically when the user adds the card.

I know I can open it up and look, but just thought there could be a quick way, even say a coloured dot in the corner.

Also can we colour code a new card, so if its the new card in the block, its got a new visual option so I can see it quickly.

Awesome bit of software though, changed my life.


Answers:
author: Dan Ivory
body: Hey [@Lee Jones](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4537503)

You could try using Butler to add the person who added the card to your board, to that card as a member. This requires a variable, which is quite easy, you just need to add {username} as the member in the Butler rule. See the screenshot below where Ive highlighted it.

![Screenshot 2021-08-31 at 08.46.25.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/158229i7CFE76FBC240CB7A/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2021-08-31 at 08.46.25.png")

AND/OR...

You could try using Butler to automatically add a label when a card is added to a board (eg a green "NEW" label)? Then you could just remove it when you have seen the card.

![Screenshot 2021-08-31 at 08.39.15.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/158228i000C0183AE4FF9FF/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2021-08-31 at 08.39.15.png")

Quick tip. If you hover your mouse over a card and press "L" on your keyboard (lower case is fine) you can quickly edit labels without opening the card :)

Let me know if you need help setting up those Butler rules.

Thanks,

Dan


author: Hannah Humbert - Simpla Workflows
body: Another option is to auto label the cards with a custom label using the creator variable. There are different variables you could use such as:

{creatorusername}

{creatorfullname}

{creatorinitials}

If you create the labels before, butler will search for the label and apply the relevant one to the card. If butler can't find it, it will generate a new one. So you might want to create all of them beforehand of you want to choose what colour each person represents.
