    You are the best teacher on youtube. Maybe a trello board and workflow for crm. Especially for real estate leads? Thanks

    thanks for another great video . Is there any way we can use butler and/or card repeater power up for recurring tasks to put the due date exactly what we need? As card repeater power up only repeat the card(with the same due date), but not the due date say for next year. Hope u can help!

    Love your videos. I’m having a consistent issue with having calendar events show up as doubles in my calendar. Especially when I add invites. Would you consider doing a video on how to avoid this? Thanks again! :)

    Hi, I was wandering is it possible to set a rule in which when I open a new card from a certain list and label it (for instance green label), it will be automatically added as an attachment to
    card in other list which has the same color label?

  • @kimcramer
    @kimcramer 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    great video as usual!! I just tried this on one of my boards - I created a list called today and when I drag a card onto this list it sets a due date for today. .... however the time it sets is "automagically 😳 " making it 10:59pm ... every time. Do you know if there's a way I can "automagically" make it set for an all day event?

    • @Simpletivity

      When creating/editing your Butler rules, you will see an Advanced toggle switch in the top right corner. Turn this on, and you will get access to even more detailed settings including specific times. I hope that helps!

    Thanks Scott, very useful introduction. One question: If you create a new card from an item of a checklist, could it gets the same label as the "mothercard" automaticly?

    • @Simpletivity
      @Simpletivity  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's a great question. But I'm not sure if 'converting a checklist item to card' is a trigger that can be identified.

    I really need to master this power-up. It could be very powerful for me. Still scratching my head trying to fathom how to make quite a long sequence of rules

    Hi Scott, I am trying to set up a rule whereby when I move a card from pending booking to booked, it automatically sends the client, who's name and email address is listed in the card, an email notifying them this booking is now confirmed. Is it possible?? Cheers

    • @Simpletivity
      @Simpletivity  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, you can set this up by using Trello automation. You would need to make use of variables however in order to make this work: support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/butler-variables/

    The Butler button does not show up in any of my boards, nor can I find it anywhere. What am I doing wrong?

    How can I set up the butler to email clients from a card on a certain day

    • @Simpletivity
      @Simpletivity  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can use the Due Date function within Butler and then select Content as the Action. I hope that helps!

      @@Simpletivity can I put in a body of text that I want to be my email message? Will it send to the clients email on the card? Trello is awesome but this is confusing me
