How do you deal with 'done' card?

At Wekan code there is already examples how to duplicate board, export board, copy card, etc. So basically some new ways to copy/move/export/import can be added by anyone that has urgent need for those features.

Thanks @xet7 , I'm curious what do you do? Do you do number 1 as I have described and then when the project is complete you export the board?

If some board is full, I rename it for example to "Work 2020-07" and then start new board.

I do not export boards, because currently export to JSON does not export all data of board. I backup Wekan with mongodump

I use Wekan Snap version that automatically upgrades to newest Wekan version

with database migrations to new schema etc automatically

I also use Wekan Sandstorm version, there I backup grain by downloading to .zip file, or backup whole sandstorm to .tar file, as described in Sandstorm Backup page

And if I mess up something, I restore from backup

with mongorestore

Currently I'm fixing CSV export, and bug where only 20 newest comments are visible on card

I will also later add more import/export fixes, and ability to import/export from other apps

Locally I run wekan at desktop i5 computer that has SSD disk and 28 GB RAM

and remote server has NVME disk bare metal install with Wekan Snap and a lot of RAM

Hi Phil.

I´am do the "move to a 'done' swimlane". I also tryed out the "Archive the card". But with the possible options which will keep the Information (no card delete), i´m faced with the fact that the Card will ongoing show up on my calendar´s list. Do you have a solution for this? There is no need for a 'done' card to show up in my calendar list.

Thanks and Greetings

@thebigbloodyb If you move those done cards to another board, they don't show in current board's calendar. You can look at Board Settings / Rules, is it possible to automate it.

Hey @xet7 . Thats a simple but good idea. i will give this a try. Thank you!

@xet7 I think this will do it for me. Unfortunately the Rules are not editabel, is that true or did i miss this option? Thanks for your help!

Edit Rules feature will be added sometime at this or next year https://boards.wekan.team/b/D2SzJKZDS4Z48yeQH/wekan-open-source-kanban-board-with-mit-license/rsf9TS7SNPNq8Fp3z

Thanks for the Information and your caring
