We want to revamp the way we utilise Trello. Right now, we use the overarching deadline on a card to sort by due date in a list. However, we want to change the cards to show both the start and end date of a project. 

This is to stop the deadline from being changed constantly and to help our project manager always know the final deadline for a job. Before, the overarching deadline would change from the concept deadline to the deadlines of specific assets. 

TL DR. Can we sort a list by due date using the checklist deadlines?

Hi Reece, welcome to the community!

I'm afraid there isn't a way to sort by checklist due dates. I checked, and we have a feature suggestion opened regarding sorting due date items, which you can check here: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/TRELLO-49

I have also added this post as an internal comment to this report so that way our engineering team can reference it and also use it to help align priority. I would also recommend you visit that suggestion, log in with your Atlassian account, and click Start watching this issue on the right panel. This will help our product and engineering team understand more about which functionalities our users are interested in. Also, when the ticket is updated by our product team, you'll be notified via email.

You can learn more about this by reading our Implementation of New Features Policy: New Features Policy
