My goal is to show an entry in the thing repeating group IF the user who created the post is the same as the user in the top-level repeating group, BUT to also show an empty space if the user who posted is NOT the top-level user (that’s why it’s more complicated than just a straight feed for each user, and why we had to use the date repeating group)
Ideally my filter would be something like user = Parent Group’s Parent Group’s user.
But, this isn’t possible in the UI. I have a strong feeling that this is my n00bishness and not a total blocker. Would love some help…thanks!
Put the Date RG inside a group first, and set Content-Type = User, Data Source = Current Cell’s User. Give this group a name like “User Reference.” Not only will RG Date still be able to reference “parent group’s user,” but so can the post now too because it’s just a separate element inside the RG User cell. You don’t need to look for “grandparent’s Thing”
Yellow Group (labeled “Group Reference” in my example) = reference group with content type set to User and data source set to current cell’s User (from the pink RG)
White RG = the equivalent of your Date RG that sits inside the reference (yellow) group.
Text inside White RG can reference Yellow group’s user (i.e. the Pink RG’s cell’s user) not through “Current cell’s anything” but simply “Group’s User”
Feel free to post your editor link and I can help you set it up in your app too.
