// ABOUT ME
My name is Francesco.
I’m a student based in the South West of the UK, I also work with FlashSticks and Newton Mail with their marketing teams. I’m mad about technology - especially apps and software.
I’ve been on KZbin since 2014. I’ve been making videos about how to use productivity tools and resources.
The mission has really been to create handy tools for anyone to use to understand and implement a tool, with some extra support thrown in. I don’t believe productivity tools can solve your organization problem, but equipping you with the right ones can put you one step further.
Drop me a tweet anytime, I’m pretty open to tech conversations: @francescod_ales

What is your favorite Trello hack? Share it here in the comments.

[@keepproductive]

Mine is the Calendar Power-up, so neat! :-) Please share yours below everyone!

[@ROTPx]

I love the "Comment Editor by AJ" Power-up, which is a full-screen WYSIWYG comment editor! So useful, especially since markdown can be a little annoying, sometimes, and a fully-featured editor is a nice addition to Trello cards.

[@LandonPauley]

Great video! I wanted to share that IFTTT (If This Then That) now integrates with trello. With the time trigger you can set a card to "repeat" at any given time or when another trigger takes place. This saves my power up for that board because I use the free version as well.

[@keepproductive]

Great shout Landon. IFTTT with Trello will be great! :-) Thanks for sharing - for those who want to get started: ifttt.com/trello

[@leslieschlak9441]

Thank you, For some reason, the I think the trello app on mine is missing a few key things . . . or maybe it's just operator trouble, but you helped simplify this so I can quickly learn it and proceed how I need to. Thanks

Can you put status bars in trello to show the status of the card? Like percentage of completion?

[@niclascarlsson2885]

great hacks!

[@shibgamedia8600]

Hello I've been using Trello for a few years and one of the big issues we are having is that as we are growing, it is hard to keep track what tasks a team member is doing day-to-day. The way we assigned tasks is that there are boards which we are doing work for each of our digital marketing clients, and in those boards there are many cards and we tag the team member in a particular card to do the task. But with enough clien's being worked on at the same time, we don't know what that team member is doing today versus tomorrow vs next week? to solve this we created a board particularly for the team member where they will write down what they are doing in 1 board (So it's a board to manage the tasks they are doing another boards) but this is also getting a little blue confusing and I wanted to know if there's an easier way to solve this issue by possibly have a card copy to the team members whenever they are assigned to the task?

[@aussietanker]

Excellent and informative video! Is there any way in the free version of Trello to sort lists by priority? (ie as per monday.com)

[@keepproductive]

Thanks - glad you enjoyed it! Scott made an awesome video. Try using filtering functions: help.trello.com/article/787-filtering-cards-on-a-board - they help to sort items. Happy to help further. Francesco.

[@Simpletivity]

Thanks for watching! Filtering would be your best method if you are using labels for priority.

[@JosephineDeSmet]

omg hero!!!!

[@Simpletivity]

Thanks so much for watching, Josephine!

[@moddaeng]

A video on the following would be great. Trello. How to see tasks per person across multiple teams / boards and their status (To Do, In Progress, Done). I just cant seem to find a video on this topic. I do find commercial solutions.

[@KnightFox1000]

Does anyone know how to fast use (shortcut maybe) the repeat powerup to every card automatically? My team of operations really need it. TY

[@Kisarhi]

That voice though 😍

[@Simpletivity]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@timjamboula4545]

Hi, how do I automate Slack, to remind my team of their Trello tasks?

[@cherrypagantian259]

How to make a link using Trello? Thanks!

[@alianajacobs5703]

Is there anyway I can manage word documents in trello and a visualization from the first page on display. And can I also couple it with a Revision Control system so if I change anything I can just open it directly from Trello?

[@Simpletivity]

Great question, Aliana. You won't be able to see the document as an image within Trello. But you can connect your OneDrive account (or other accounts such as Drive or Dropbox) directly to Trello so that you can immidiatley access it from a card.

[@henrylong45]

How can I DOWNLOAD an image file from Trello to my computer? This seems like something that should be EASY and SIMPLE to do. But, it is anything but. How can I do it. And, is there a way I can mass download ALL ATTACHMENTS from Trello to my computer?

[@hanswurst7638]

Trello is so awesome!!!!! :))

[@Simpletivity]

Yes it is! Thanks for watching!

[@hanswurst7638]

Thanks for you video, Scott ;)

[@boliemihan976]

honestly, I don't understand about URL, can you help me one more time, many thanks.

[@JosephineDeSmet]

is it possible that the url thing doesn't work with safari?

[@Simpletivity]

The URL tip should work in all browsers. Just keep in mind that an image will only be brought into Trello if the particular page has set up their images to be used as a thumbnail.

[@JosephineDeSmet]

Simpletivity I mean it works, but when you drag to another tab on your browser, it doesn't open the tab...

[@Simpletivity]

With Safari, you may need to have 2 separate browser windows open to do this instead of dragging into a different tab in the same browser. I hope that helps!

[@lucienaudet6330]

When i drag and drop a URL the image dont come with it? Is there another way?

[@Simpletivity]

Having the image appear in Trello is really dependent on the particular web page you're bringing in via URL. For example, most blog posts identify a key image which will then be brought into Trello. However, if a web page isn't formatted properly, this might not occur.

[@mattsgalaxy823]

Another tip: if you want to delete a box just hover over and click "c" on your keyboard

[@wendyli3279]

It would have made more sense for Trello to assign the space bar key to the action of putting a new board in a SPACE between other cards...just saying.

[@fusiontv5269]

3:40

[@12micastro]

New to Trello...Can a notification be restored on trello!?

[@Simpletivity]

Great question. I'm not aware of an ability to reset a notification which has already been acknowledged.

[@kimcramer]

ugh - how do you stop card repeater?

[@Simpletivity]

Great question, Kimberly. Archiving the card will not stop it from repeating. Only deleting a card, moving it to another board, or canceling the repeat on the original card will stop it from repeating. To do this, just select the 'Next Repeat' link in the card. Hope that helps!

[@rishp90]

a sign a card

[@sanderjongsma9740]

These are no hacks .... just programed features ...

[@keepproductive]

My bad titling, it's a great video tho! Francesco.

[@MySamOD]

If the title of the video was "5 useful trello programmed features" would you click it?

[@hdsander2604]
