I want to create a book app for mobile but i just can’t fiquere it out to get the data base perfectly sourced to all of the books I created so they get their own story. I can’t click on other items, so how do they get all their own stories?
In Bubble, each book needs to be its own Thing in the database (Data Type: “Book”).
Then each book should have its own fields: title, cover image, author, story text, etc.
The key part is how you open a book:
-
Put all your books in a Repeating Group.
-
When the user clicks a book, use a workflow:
Navigate → Go to page…
Send data: Current cell’s Book -
On the “Book Details” page, set the Type of content = Book
-
Now that page automatically shows the correct story for whichever book was clicked.
You don’t manually create separate pages, Bubble passes the book’s data into the page.
