Checkbox with yes/no send input result to other page

martabarreiracalvinh · 2020-11-18T03:42:53.523Z

Hello Everyone!

I have been trying to figure this out for hours and its pretty basic but can’t seem to get it right. Would appreciate any help.

I have a bunch of expenses that the user can choose from and it will then apply to a specific column on the results page, depending on what year they check for each option.

I can’t seem to make it show something different depending on the check box tho. It appears the same independent of the checkbox being checked or not:

I have each check box being a yes or no…

but can’t seem to get the “if this is checked then = yes = show on other page”

This is where I try to do that logic:

If you simply want to take the yes/no value to the other page, you can use URL parameters to do so. Needs to be done with the workflow event navigation go to page…there is information from bubble on how to send data to pages

If you are expecting that the user would be selecting either week 1, week 2, week 3, week 4 or week 5, I personally don’t think a yes/no value is sufficient to store the results of a checkbox selection of five different items.

Instead you may want to consider creating a data type in your database to store these values and use it as a temporary data storage, so it is saved upon the user making their selections, and deleted after the data is no longer needed.

Thanks for the answer!

What I am trying to do is that if the user selects the week 1 value then it saves that to the database and then since it was checked it can then be called again on the final page.

If the user selects Marriage for week 1 and Big trip for week 2, I only want those values to show up under the right week on the final page. Does that make sense? If not using yes/no what do you think is the best way to go about it?

Because I have figured out how to get the checkbox to be yes/no.
I just have not figured out how to then apply that yes to what the value of an independent input does.

So I have found a way to do the above but I just feel it is not the most efficient way:

I would have to do each action for each year and run it through "if dropdown contains “Year 1” then it adds to the database. That is super long and slow…
Any thoughts on how to stream line it?
