Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

**If you need to add a list, you can double click anywhere on a board.**

This extension will add four buttons to all your boards. "Hide Empty Lists" will hide all empty lists from the board. When empty lists are hidden, "Show Empty Lists" will appear. "Show Empty Lists" will show all previously hidden lists. "Shrink Lists" will reduce the width of lists on the board automatically based on available screen space. When lists have been shrunk, the button changes to "Expand Lists". "Expand Lists" will revert lists to their original size.

This extension will also remove the "Add a list..." button from your boards. If you need to add a list, you can double click anywhere on a board.

After applying a filter, click "Show Empty Lists" and "Hide Empty Lists" to hide filtered empty lists. When clearing a filter, click "Show Empty Lists" and "Hide Empty Lists" to show previously hidden lists that are no longer empty.

Wow! This is literally exactly what I wanted! Thanks so much labbeen. Also, I'm not sure why anyone is having trouble with this? Maybe it got fixed since them, but I haven't had any problems with any of the buttons yet, and it seems to filter the cards just fine...

UPDATE: Seems to have been updated, and it's making lists with no cards disappear as it used to, which is the functionality I care about most and the reason I love this extension. The only issue is that if I have used Trello's functionality to collapse a list, it still leaves the same amount of space for the collapsed list rather than shifting other lists over, so you end up with blank space. I don't care about that too much, and the ability to make empty lists disappear is fantastic. --- I used to absolutely love this extension because I could filter cards and then make it hide all lists that didn't have a filtered card in them. I would have given it six stars. But since the fall of 2023 it doesn't hide empty lists when filtering, only lists that have no cards in them at all. It's no longer useful to me, and I haven't found a satisfactory substitute. Two stars because, aside from the lack of functionality with filtering, it works cleanly.

Great extension, except one fatal flaw- the "create new list" link is hidden, regardless of whether the shrinking is actually toggled or not.

We typically have 60-100 lists per week, so this is a nice way to shrink them, and still be able to expand them as needed. The only problem I have with this extension is that list titles get truncated when the lists are shrunk, and we work with a lot of long list titles. So "2016-08-25 Client Subaru Model Pages [2] August Coop" turns into "2016-08-25 Client" There's no quick way to see what a task is unless you either click in the title, and use the arrow keys to scroll through it, or expand the lists and find it.

This is a great extension and I've only had it for a second but unfortunately it did not accomplish my goal. I would like a feature to combine the features to "shrink empty lists". I still want the list to appear however I only want the empty lists to have limited space. The problem I'm trying to solve is empty lists will take up the space of a normal list. While I still want the empty list to appear so I can easily drag/drop items to it, I want the space reduced. I can however use this extension to make the list not display and use the trello move command on the task to move it to said list. I will try this for now. Thank you! Edit: Sorry just tried it and there is one major flaw. If you move something to an empty list that is not being displayed with the "move" function, the list will not appear until you refresh the board. Unfortunate behavior. Hope this can be improved. If knew how to work on chrome extensions I would be more than happy to help.

This is good except for one thing; with the extension installed, the "add list" link disappears from Trello boards. Fortunately you can also add lists by double clicking on any empty part of the current board, but I had to google that to find it out, so this extension needs to, at minimum, mention that in the description, and better, do something like putting an "add list" link next to their other links to make up for the missing link. Still, it's very handy.

As my Trello boards grow 'm finding this really useful to hide empty lists when filtering is on. It helps focus and helps you feel less overwhelmed.

Perfect! I've been looking for something that will hide all of the lists I'm not working on. If I'm lucky and only have a few lists I'm working on at the time, all my lists will fit on one page. Which means no more horizontal scroll bar! I first filter my Trello board to only show cards assigned to me. Then I use Shrink Lists' hide Empty Lists and Shrink Lists features.
