Have to respectfully disagree with your opinion Matt. I think both are well placed within the editor. If anything there should be a survey or discussion amongst designers about it. But I think both are fine.
I think I understand where you are coming from that it’s a duplicate. Well I don’t know if it’s just me, but I use the left search to search for elements more than I do the right search.
Because the left “search” input is in your face, while the right search input is hidden.

good job team

@recker249 what Matt saids make sense, like, in the Table element, you cannot search by columns using the element tree search, it only shows in the Search for an element. Very tricky

Looking forward to contribute to the eco system! Thanks for keeping us up to date @josh

Personally, I absolutely prefer the left search elements option. But I agree, this in the end a duplicate and not needed.

nocodejordan · 2024-12-04T13:18:37.055Z

I think the left search is ok, but it should reset the search filter after clicking. (which was the previous function of the right search).

Right now, when you click an element from the search, you are not able to see where your element is within the element tree. It becomes very irritating to have to clear the search bar manually after each search.

MattN · 2024-12-04T13:34:52.063Z

Yeah to be fair, it doesn’t matter if it’s placed on the left or right. Just needs to function like the current (right-side) element search.

New toolbar: I really hope that there is an easy way to locate reusable elements while searching (like we can now). This was a BIG PAIN while using the experimental toolbar with a client… which I disabled quickly I am afraid.

recker249 · 2024-12-05T00:11:35.942Z

Agreed!

dramirez · 2024-12-05T18:46:42.613Z

the new toolbar is cute but when we are gonna get WU logs that are actually useful? you announced this and killed it instantly. the current logs are unusable and we should expect better from a modern app builder

Both the element search boxes are absolutely needed and the box on the right being removed currently in the beta toolbar is a huge miss.

I put a ticket in for this weeks ago since you cannot access table element columns that are expanded off the editor page without it.

Sarah_Esteve · 2024-12-05T23:30:53.344Z

+1 for table element, columns are too hard to catch, and the ability the rename row/columns could be nice, because column A column AA column AAA column AAAA ahahahahahahaha

lol

and watch out ! the app search tool don’t find fields used in table elements… big danger for field deletion !!!

Great work! So excited for mobile!!

One huge request…

Can you add a quick way to Disable an Action?

I love how you can Disable a Workflow as it makes testing new features way easier and faster.

However, to test new Actions, I always put a weird Condition on the old one like… Current Date is Empty… Or Current User City is Bob

Disabling an Action would be awesome!

Seconded

Hi Josh,

First, I want to congratulate you and the entire Bubble team for the outstanding work you’re doing. Your commitment to making app creation more accessible is truly remarkable, and I’m particularly impressed by the efforts you’re putting into developing Bubble Assist.

I joined the waitlist from the very beginning, hoping to integrate this innovation into my project. Based on the anticipated November launch, I’m now in a critical situation where I need to make an important decision about the technology to use.

Could you provide more clarity on the actual release date of Bubble Assist? Is there a way to join the beta testing phase or get a more precise estimate to help me plan accordingly?

I’m confident this tool can revolutionize the way I work, and I’d love to rely on its availability in my decision-making process.

Thank you in advance for your response, and once again, congratulations on all the incredible work you’re doing!

Best regards,

wdconnors · 2024-12-12T20:26:19.799Z

Support is adding the element search back into the menu bar.

The table element workaround for now is to pick a column you can see in the editor and tab through to the column you need. This also works for columns hidden that need to be selected.

pieter.vanrensburg · 2024-12-13T13:44:37.472Z

@josh The Flusk announcement got me really excited. Weeks later I’m still stuck on “Our security and compliance algorithm has flagged this application.” with support repeatedly chirping the same “Our apologies bla bla bla” story…

josh:

Toolbar: We also launched an updated toolbar (the menu at the top of the editor) to around 10% of users.
[…]
We’re planning on launching this update to all users later this month.

Has any of the 90% seen this? The menu bar looks the same to me, and there’s one day left in the month. Am I overlooking it somehow?

josh:

Backend workflows are getting their own tab alongside design, data, styles, etc. […] Since this is purely a navigational change, we’re rolling this out to everyone in December, rather than making it opt-in.

Have I encountered a temporal paradox due a rift in the spacetime continuum or something? 'Cuz I haven’t seen this either.

boston85719 · 2024-12-31T04:05:51.972Z

I have not seen either

Hi Bubbler,
I’m in the same situation. clients of mine are asking me to make a choice. I have informed them since june of last year that Bubble was to release the Native framework. Now, they asked me to make a choice, because they cannot wait any longer.
2 options for this clients : or I stay on Bubble and I loose them, or I go to others solutions. And the lake of clarity about release schedule is a real problem. I hope Bubble team will liberate the access to the native solution soon, before it will become a true layability for me.
