Data Type and custom state not matching feeds

Need help App Organization

Hi everyone!! I’m a beginner in the platform and loving it so far.
I’m attempting to build a platform, where Business Users can create Gigs targeted at specific interest groups called CirQles(specific interest). Each Business User belongs to a so called Quendr (Major interest where they operate) and they can select 1 to 3 CirQles (as sub option which is related to the Quendr the business belong to) when creating a Gig.

What I Have done:
Option Sets for each Quendr and its CirQles, with icons attached for both Quendrs and CirQles.

Data Types:

  • Quendr (Stores the list of related CirQles)
  • CirQle (Includes name, icon, and linked Quendr)
  • Gig (Includes selected CirQles and linked Quendr)

A custom state on the Business User dashboard** to store their assigned Quendr.
A dropdown/multiselect on the Gig creation page** that should dynamically show CirQles related to the user’s Quendr.

The Issue:

On the Gig listing table, I need to display the 3 selected CirQles, as icons. Since the CirQles are stored as an Option Set, I can’t directly reference an image field dynamically.
Should I convert CirQles into a data type instead of an Option Set to allow dynamic image fetching? Or is there a better way to achieve this?

Would love to hear your thoughts! Any help is greatly appreciated.
I would love to share the job done providing links and perhaps a call to share insights more easily and get to connect with likeminders.

Thanks in advance!

Not sure what you mean by you can’t reference an image dynamically in an option set?

It’s possible. I do it for a lot of the images on my site.

Let’s have a call, since you don’t mind having one, it’s gonna be easier that way

Ok. I use option sets with tons of attributes for everything from navigation to amenities and dynamically reference all the attributes.

Hopefully, on your call with the other person who commented and is offering a call, you get it figured out.

i think the mistake is in the custom state, i need to make sure that when the Major interest is selected, only the relative optionset of that major interest will be available for being set in the 3 sub interests that will be chosen for the gig. once created this logic clear, should be easy to feed the icon af each selected option as the image is already in it’s attributes. Hope that makes sense
