We have all experienced it – you mistakenly delete a Trello board and start to panic. But don’t fret, it is not a catastrophic event. You can easily retrieve your deleted Trello board. This article will guide you through the process.
Step 1: Go to your Trello’s home page
First things first, log in to your Trello account. Once you’re logged in, you will be directed to your Trello’s home page.
Step 2: Click on ‘Boards’
On your home page, find the ‘Boards’ button at the top of the page. Click it.
Step 3: Click on ‘See closed boards’
After clicking the ‘Boards’ button, a drop-down menu will appear. Scroll down to the bottom of the drop-down menu and click on ‘See closed boards’ .
Step 4: Find your deleted board
Now you should see a list of your closed (or deleted) boards. Find the board that you want to recover.
Step 5: Click on ‘Re-open’
Once you’ve found your deleted board, click on ‘Re-open’ button next to it. And voila! Your board is now back to life.
Here’s a tip: to prevent accidental deletion in the future, consider adding a confirmation pop-up before deleting a board. You can do this by adding a piece of JavaScript code:
$('button.delete').click(function(e) {
if (!confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this board?')) {
e.preventDefault();
}
});
