Relate Cards

Open syntax922 opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Also updated search functionality so that by default the board will only be searched by names of cards (not descriptions)

Created functionality to "Relate Cards" this will take either a given list of cards, or search the name of cards for given criteria on the board. In either case the list of cards will then have their descriptions updated to have a "Related Cards" section that will have links to the other Trello cards that have been identified.

There is no current functionality to add or remove cards to this list (via hubot).

This sounds interesting, how have you been using it?

SO interesting story, this functionality brought about me having a conversation with Trello support and them finding a bug in their code. What this does is allow you to build cards that are related to each other, if you're using Trello as a Scrum tool for example this is an excellent way to have "related stories". The one "bug" is that while in the past I would use pipes (|) as a delimiter for "themes" i.e. Website | Build HTML file Website | Build JS file Trello's search code doesn't handle pipes correctly resulting in more results than expected when relating a theme. Instead you can use Parenthesis and it works as expected.
