So I made my profile page private for every user. the url uses the a uniqueID of another orders database to populate some information on the page. for example.
site (abc.com/orders/1516378075894x974593289134103200.com)
I made it so that when page loads, if user is not logged in, go to login page. However, for a brief second, you are able to see the information on abc.com/orders/1516378075894x974593289134103200.com before it is quickly redirected. How do i make it so the page does not even render but redirects immediately?
IMO, I don’t think there is a straight shot way without load-speed. This is why I don’t use Bubble anymore for my own personal applications. You always have to wait until the page is loaded, then can do the action. With more modern applications/builders you can implement features before the page loads, which is ideal these days.
You can get a 302 redirect if using a page is loaded workflow, putting conditions on the workflow (not the workflow actions) and not referencing anything from the page in the condition. This allows the redirect to come from the server rather than the client.
Well the conditions are dynamic and the workflow can be placed in a reusable in the header. But I don’t come from a traditional programming background so idk, maybe this is cumbersome compared to the normal way of doing it
No worries mate. I am way ahead on the Coding side than no-code. With Bubble, you do not really have access to how your page is rendered or behaves before it is rendered. With my techniques, I do.
@GH5T it’s awesome to have someone with your experience in the community and i think your plugins are awesome too.
Though i think it’s better for new users if you do not keep pushing people away from Bubble and to instead suggest it as an alternative after providing a native solution.
I think the forum has enough threads specifically about alternatives.
You’re right, I do fickle about utilizing frameworks outside of Bubble, but that’s just to prove that Bubble is not always the answer for specific use-cases.
This is just an example of what we cannot do with Bubble. I am only providing this insight to show that he won’t be able to achieve the instant effect that he wants (as of now) but can do so with some alternative options like Creating your own slugs without a page - Tips - Bubble Forum. This follows the same principal, with animation and redirection.
I have helped many others with setting up routes on Bubble itself, and so far one of the only apps that has really done it right is https://whisperer.hu/ (as far as routing concerns).
If you want this type of effect you can easily do so with my PathHopper feature included inside my Toolkit. Though this is not ideal for redirects, but for routing. With it however, you can detect a certain path and redirect as needed. But I’m sure there may be a faster method (included in my video I believe) for redirection purposes.
Him and I are also going to be collaborating on an easier method in which you’ll be able to do it with your home page (still wont be dynamic but will load instantly).
