Configure a Card to Ignore Board Filters

Prevent certain Cards from changing with Board filters.

Individual Item List, Report, Activity Feed, Widget, and People List Cards can be configured to ignore Board-level filters, allowing some Cards to remain static while others update based on your Board’s filters.

When a Card is set to ignore Board filters, selections made in the Location Filter, Quick Filter, or global Board filters will not affect that Card.

Ofie Profile PicPro Tip: If the Card also has visibility rules configured, it will only be displayed when those criteria are met, even if it is set to ignore Board filters.

Who can configure a Card to Ignore Board Filters? 

You must have permission to edit the Card to configure it to ignore Board filters. The following people can update and configure existing Cards:

  • The Board's Owner, if they have the "Board Creator" permission.
  • The Board's Editors, if they have the "Board Creator" permission.
  • The Card's Editors.
  • Anyone with the "Board Manager" permission for Boards in the Board's Location.
  • Anyone who can access the Board and has the "Card Manager" permission for Cards in the Card's Location.
