Card Aging visually highlights stale work by gradually fading inactive Stories over time. The longer a Story goes without activity, the more faded it appears on the board, making it easy to spot work that may need attention or a nudge toward completion.
Customizing Aging Behavior
You can customize how Stories age in one of two ways:
- Default gradual fade: Stories fade in stages at 1, 2, and 4 weeks of inactivity
- Custom fade: Set a custom number of days for Stories to become fully faded
Configuring Card Aging for Your Workspace
To enable and configure Card Aging across your entire Workspace:
- Navigate to Settings > General Settings > Card Aging
- Choose the default gradual fade (1, 2, and 4 weeks of inactivity) or set a custom number of days for Stories to become fully faded
- Save your changes
Configuring Card Aging for a Team
Card Aging can also be configured for individual Teams:
- Navigate to Settings > Teams
- Select your Team
- Select Card Aging and configure the aging behavior for that Team
Card Aging pairs well with WIP Limits: WIP Limits cap how much work a team takes on, while Card Aging surfaces the work that has stalled.
