Install

Install Kanban WIP for Trello via the Chrome Web Store.

Instructions

A work-in-progress limit can be added to a Trello list by adding the limit to the list title in braces. If you name your list "QA [5]", this sets a work-in-progress limit of 5 items to the QA list. When the number of cards in the QA list exceeds 5, the list will be highlighted in red.

Chris Whitehead 2019-10-16: Simple and does exactly what it says it will do. I'd like to be able to choose different colours, this would help with my colourblind colleague for example, 5 stars once we can do that.

Mass Kent 2019-10-15: Love it. I had trouble initially since I hadn't refreshed the Trello board after installing the Plugin. Now it works like a charm. Thank you so much Nate for this wonderful feature.

Andy B 2019-10-06: Blooming marvellous. Works like a dream! (Note to other non-technical persons like myself: 1) it MUST go on the end of the name (which can include emojis). 2) If your trello board was open at time of installation, hit refresh!

David Messem 2018-06-22: Simple and works well. The default colours aren't that great, so the ability to add custom colours would be great

FG 2017-02-09: Is it possible to hide the number of the card limits from the title? It is a good extension and that would be a useful feature.

Clay Anderson 2014-03-17: So simple and works as advertised. Just put [X] at the end of the list name (where X is the maximum number of cards for that state) and it just works. Would love to see it weighted based on each cards value. So, for example: List "Developing [5]" with cards "Login page [2]" and "New logo [3]" would put you at the limit for the Developing list.

Marina Garrison 2014-01-06: Works perfectly. Add the WIP limit [5] at the end of your column/list name. Watch the list change to yellow when you = the WIP and change to red when you exceed it. Chrome Version 31.0.1650.63
