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.

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.

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!
