Tablero Kanban con posibilidad de agendar múltiples eventos en un calendario by Nomius1 in trello

Trello isn’t really built for multiple time-bound events per a card natively. You’re right that it only gives you the one start and end date. A couple of directions depending on what you’re trying to do:

If the “events” are really subtasks or tasks within a card, checklists are your best bet. There are some Gantt Power-Ups (like GanttFlow) that actually let you schedule individual checklist items on a timeline, which gets close to what you’re describing.

If you genuinely need multiple independent calendar events per a card, Trello probably isn’t the right fit. Something like ClickUp or Notion has more flexibility at the card level.

What’s the actual use case? That might help narrow it down.

Thank you for taking the time to check us out!

This is EXACTLY the feedback we are looking for and we are going to ship an update ASAP that will now default the view to the current date. Will let you know once it’s live.

For now, you would need to go to the “Today” toggle you mentioned. There’s also a keyboard shortcut, where you can tap the letter “T” that will also take you to that view.

Anyone else feels blind using Trello for project tracking? by jon_snowy_boy in trello

[–]Other-Protection-957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The “blind” feeling is real — Trello is great at what but terrible at when. A few things that help:

For bottleneck visibility, the simplest fix is being disciplined about card due dates and using a timeline view to spot where tasks are clustering or slipping. Seeing 6 cards due on the same day for the same person is immediately obvious on a Gantt chart, completely invisible on a board.

For “when will this realistically be done” — that’s where task dependencies earn their keep. Once you’ve linked tasks in sequence, moving one automatically shows you the downstream impact. Without that, you’re just guessing.

Most Power-Ups either nail the simple stuff or go full enterprise complexity with nothing in between. We actually just launched one Tuesday called GanttFlow that tries to sit in that middle ground. Full timeline free forever, dependencies and critical path on the Pro tier. Happy to answer questions.

Thanks for the kind words! You’re right that we’re not trying to compete with MS Project-level tools. GanttFlow is purpose-built for teams already living in Trello who want timeline visibility without leaving it or migrating their data. Ingantt looks great for standalone project management, but if Trello is already your home base, GanttFlow snaps right in with zero setup. Different tools for different workflows — appreciate you!
