Wekan / General · September 15, 2020 at 5:31pmIs there a way of scheduling the creation of cards? Or setting a card to be duplicated based on a (recurrent) time period?

Thank you very much for your explanation! One last question: how should I interpret the items that are in the Milestones ( https://github.com/wekan/wekan/milestones ) but not in the Roadmap (https://boards.wekan.team/b/D2SzJKZDS4Z48yeQH/wekan-open-source-kanban-board-with-mit-license) ?

Milestones are kind of grouping of issues, but not all issues have been added to Milestones. Wekan Roadmap originally at 2016 at Wekan kanban board, then it was moved to wiki and milestones, and after that to Wekan kanban board. For any open issue, someone should check does that bug exist, or is that feature already implemented, because not everything in issues is up-to-date, there is about 600 issues and there can be duplicates etc.
All Wekan changes are listed at ChangeLog https://github.com/wekan/wekan/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md , there someone can search if some feature or fix has been added or removed. Or try to find that in Wekan, does something work. Sometimes some menu options have been moved to different menu that is more logical place for it.
Recently I have also added new wiki pages for new major Wekan features to wiki https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki , there at right menu Features topic
There has been about 180 contributors to Wekan, and Wekan has many features that I have not yet used, because I have not had time to test how they work.
There are also Wekan related repos at https://github.com/wekan , like for logging etc, from Wekan contributors
About features, I did recently add changing custom logo at Admin Panel / Settings / Layout, for login logo and top left corner logo
Currently I'm working on fixing CSV Import/Export and bug about only 20 recent comments on card
I try to implement Search in All Board this year
and maybe also Teams/Organizations
I am doing a little tests about changing database, but nobody has paid for that, so it remains to be seen do I get it sometime working.
Like changing from MongoDB to some other database
Anyway, if that happens sometime, Snap will get automatic migration for it

Thank you one more time for the information and for your time. I've been closely following your work for 3 weeks and you are certainly doing a great job! Congratulations!!!
I have just started to run a trial of Wekan as a Trello alternative with near 150 users that actually do use Trello (daily). From the feedbacks I have received so far, they are really enjoying Wekan and they are only really missing Trello's Scheduled card creation/replication power-up (https://trello.com/power-ups/57b47fb862d25a30298459b1/card-repeater), that according to them, is a major productivity feature that advocates towards they keep using Trello.
I believe (and hope) that implementing this feature (card-repeater) can be done without big efforts by using the already deployed rules feature (as sketched here: https://github.com/wekan/wekan/issues/2476).
I am really hoping someone can work in this issue in the very near future.
One more time, thank you very much for your time and for all the answers provided.
