Automating checklist due dates based on Card Date

[Anita Kirkbride]

Is it possible to have checklists automatically set a due date based on the due date set for a card?

For example, I want to use a template, then set the due date for the card and based on that due date have all the checklists items set individual due dates, i.e 3 weeks before, 2 weeks before, 2 days after, etc. I have multiple checklists inside the card.

Here's a demo

Also figured out, that I can use CF such that the card buttons can be applied to any checklist on card. It should also work for the case of use a existing item's due date.

For your case, the use of temp {{%Wild1}} will allow work with different checklists with {{%Date}} as the date you want to set.

{"card_id": "{cardidlong}", "checklist": "{{%Wild_1}}", "date": "{{%Date}}", "bump_by": "0", "days_between": "0", "use_item": "No", "item": "Not Used", "checked": "None"}

Firstly, you might want to confirm whether item due dates on templates cards will be carried over. Furthermore I have not attempted to run Butler against a template card. 

I did, however, create a solution for what you want. Besides card due date it can use a CF date or first item due date. It can increment sequentially item due dates by days...etc. If the is business critical you can contact me using my profile info.
