Good day everyone
Please I need help on how I can allow users to create their own url link on bubble.io.
Thank you!
Hey @jeremiahokogu
Was this just one static link - i.e. a link to their profile? Or do they need to be able to create lots of links for different purposes? Please explain a little more on what you’re trying to achieve with some context and I’ll be happy to point you in the right direction

Thank you very much.
I need something like this
Users can be able to create their own after inputing the name, mobile , email address, price and occasion.
Do you think its possible on bubble.io?
Yeah sure thing!
You would need a way of generating those links. The easiest way is to just use the unique ID for that particular gift (as of course it’s unique!). Or you could use something like this MD5 Hash Generator and save that hash to the slug of the gift.
Then you would set the content type of the page where you send the recipient to that same data type and you should be able to then from there load the correct gift.

Thank you very much I’m still new on bubble.io. please is there any video as to that so I can understand it better.
Hi, i don’t have a video but i can try to explain what @josh24 was saying real quick:
Each “thing” you create in bubble has a unique ID, so let say you create a “gift” in bubble, well that “gift” now has a unique ID:
Now let’s say your apps url is backpacks.bubbleapps.io.
so first, you’ll need a page for the user to view this “gift” on, so lets say you make a page called “gift”: backpacks.bubbleapps.io/gift
great! so now we go to the page and set it’s datatype as “gift”:
now all you need to do is add your unique ID to the end of your URL: backpacks.bubbleapps.io/gift/1651291639865x764609010980884500
there’s probably alot of ways to do this, but here’s one option:
in the workflow of making a new “gift”, simply add a step “make changes to the gift” and add a data field for a link, adding the gift page’s URL, with that particular item’s unique ID to the end of it.
this URL that’s generated in that workflow will take your user to that page, and then on that page, the “gift” they created will be visible to them.
(you’ll have to add text fields with dynamic data for your “gift” but the data will be available to use as needed, assuming privacy rules allow it)

Thank you for assistance but I’m having little issues here
Please what do I need to insert as you did yours?
hi, looks like you could stop after “unique id”. you shouldn’t have to format it as text (what type is your link thing?)
