Can someone show me how to set a workflow function with a condition based on time elapsed?
I have a ‘go live’ button set to Yes/No. No being the default. when the user clicks ‘Go live’ the Go live = yes. This has them only show up in the repeating group if they are live… perfect.
I need some how to set a 24 hour timer to the ‘go live’… so by default it turns back to a ‘No’ after the 24 hour period. Thus having the user having to re-click ‘Go live’ to be viewable for another 24 hours
well that’s a simple fix cheers…, I tried but I need a paid plan to be able to use the option ‘schedule an API Workflow’ action its telling me. would you know any other way I could achieve this? I have noted the way you have described above thou for when I upgrade my plan.
cheers
When the user clicks ‘Go live’, add the current date to a new date field called ‘Last go live’.
Then, in your page, have a workflow that, upon loading the page, checks if current date > last go live date + 24 hours. If it is, then change Go live to No.
Would this work?
Regarding the Backend workflows not being enabled on the Free plan, that’s something I have mentioned in this forum before. I don’t quite understand how some key piece of functionality is behind a pay wall. This way, some people will never see the true potential of Bubble, and leave for good. I think the reason is performance related, but still, I think it’s a limitation that should be addressed.
