Trigger custom events on other pages

[thomas.schijf]

Is there a way I can trigger a custom event I’ve made of another page?

Put differently, the thing I want to solve: when user A adds a thing to a database, I want to refresh the repetitive content of user B on another page this user is viewing at that moment…

Thanks in advance!

Have you tested this yet to see if it updates?

Most data changes I have done on one page automatically updates on another page. Even if the data is edited from the Back End while someone is on a page, I believe it updates

It works if you use bindings on the “other” Page. You can even test it by yourself with different tabs in the Browser.

[New Feature] Auto-binding inputs
