The best way to do this using an option set?

senecadatabase · 2024-08-23T01:39:04.634Z

I’m trying to hyper-personalize my app.

I have a dynamic text field that says 'good morning (or whatever) user’s first name. That is about 12 conditionals.

Now, I want to add a daily message. A little roast I guess you could say.

I’ve created an option set with the seven days of the week and a daily saying as an attribute.

What would be the best way to set this up to display it?

Would I use 7 conditionals?

Or is there a better way?

Example: “It’s Friday, time to plan your weekend while pretending you’re working”

I think you can get the day of week and filter the option set based on that. No need for 7 conditionals.

So you’re saying use ‘current date and time and extract day’?

What would that dynamic statement look like?

This would be the expression to get day:

You’re awesome.

Thank you also to @pattokane for that video.

I wish I could give multiple solutions for all the friendly help.
