As I copy the boards with the standard Trello function, the comments/activities are not copied with it. Only the board itself, the tasks, attachments and tags are copied but the comments not. Does anybody know whether I have overseen something or is Trello still working on this?

Currently, actions and comments are not preserved on copied boards by design - since copy is not meant as a way to back up boards so much as to create and use template boards.

  • Hi Brett, thanks very much for your comment. It's a pitty but I understand what you are saying about the functionality itself. What I wanted to do is transfer an existing board to a newly created organisation which also contains its (new) boards. I guess that cannot be done other than using the copy function which again results in losing my comments right? If you have a workaround or the correct function, please let me know!

  • You should be able to move the board between organizations using settings -> change organization. Does that help?
