Sorting cards in a list in new Trello interface

[Daniel Walsh]

I used to be able to set a card priority and sort my list of cards into priority order. In the new interface I can't see any way to do that anymore. I can't see an option to sort on a custom field (e.g. priority 1-5), and the screenful priority powerup I used to have no longer even shows up in the card modal as an option. 

Has anyone managed to figure this out, or have Atlassian broken this important feature completely?!

@Daniel Walsh there are no changes to sorting functionality in Trello.

Are you using a Card Priority power-up? Are you using a numeric field as priority?

[Daniel Walsh]

Thanks, Victor. Yes, whilst I'd prefer to use a simple Custom Field I realise sorting won't work on a custom field, so I'm using Card Priority by Screenful. However, that powerup option has disappeared from the modal when you open a card in the updated UI, so I can't see any way to add a priority from the powerup anymore. 

The new card modal UI has a whole panel on the right dedicated to comments and activity, but no powerful options...?

@Daniel Walsh it's here:

Ah, thanks Victor. That's helpful, but also disappointing that Atlassian have now made it a 4 click process to use this powerup on each card. Would be so much better UX if the powerup option still sat in the modal itself so it's only 2 clicks to apply instead of 4! 

Anyway, thanks for pointing me to where it's hiding.
