Repeating Groups and Dynamic Linking

Need help Database
1

Hi Everyone,

I am new to Bubble, and it’s an amazing framework, especially for someone with a UI/UX background like myself.

I’ve encountered a problem that I’m sure is a small one, but I haven’t been able to find a tutorial for it online.

I have created a database that contains:

  1. Cover Image
  2. Title
  3. URL of Games (HTML5)

On the frontend, I’ve set up a repeating group that displays the “Cover Image” and “Title.” I want to make it so that when a user clicks on any cover image, the corresponding game opens in an HTML element.

I’m struggling with setting up the dynamic linking. Can anyone help or point me to a tutorial?

Thanks a lot!

Hi!

I think you would have hidden group as a part of the Repeating Group.

When the image is clicked you can run a workflow that shows the group with whatever content you want to display in it.

No, Alan I have been researching, there are people who have indicated that I have to set states.

Please advise

Yes so there are a couple (at least of different ways) you can do it:

  1. You can set up a work flow so that when you click the image you run a workflow to “Show Element” and then switch the visibility of the element (with your HTML5) in the WF to show. If you set the element to collapse when invisible, then you can animate the reveal.

  2. You can have a workflow that sets a Custom State that when it contains a certain value will trigger condition on the group (with your HTML5) to be visible.

You can then reverse the process with a workflow that is triggered to reverse those change to hide the element (with your HTML5).
