show screen shots of the search used to populate the files and the data structure of database and the structure of the container element that shows all the details (ie: the screen shot you did provide)

Hi @boston85719
I cant provide screenshots from where i am right now.. but i can try explain what you are asking..

My db structure is set up as a task with a field called “added files” there is a type list of files..

So in a create a thing workflow it uploads the file and added it to the list of added files..

When i search for it in a RG er search for current page task and ever container and groups have that data source..

I have a workflow that when i click on the file it will show a popup where it will preview the file in.. that works with no problems.. it is only when it gets displayed in the RG that it have struggle to get displayed correctly and with not blinking

Test it first in an isolated environment or on page directly (not in popup) and see if it happens there or not as your source should just be ‘current page taks files’ and the type of the RG can be files or just text, and I’d say text simply because all you need is the URL of the file, so if you use text, your source will be ‘current page tasks files urls’…unless you are trying to show the file contents from within the RG which is not recommended.

Oh no then you misunderstood.. the popup is only to display current cells files url as a preview.. but the RG is on the page where i want to display a little miniature of the file

The miniature of file is likely source of problem, just show something user clicks and open file in new browser tab

Great ! Please use a “RepeatingGroup” instead of a “Table”

christian_bargmann · 2025-04-14T18:41:12.550Z

that didnt work.. same issue but worse.. so i shifted back to a table

Remove the preview file plugin element.

christian_bargmann · 2025-04-15T15:13:36.861Z

no… i want the preview of the file there as a miniature.. im asking how to not make it blink like as it shows in the clip above

boston85719 · 2025-04-15T15:17:04.242Z

could be the plugin, so contact the developer, or could be the height of the RG, I’m not sure, I’ve never used that plugin, but plugins do cause WU issues in Bubble all the time now, especially when used in a repeating group or table element, and since you are seeing high WUs because of the repeated loading, it is likely to do with the plugin itself.

christian_bargmann · 2025-04-15T15:18:56.393Z

but im using this type of setup multiple places on my application with no issue at all.. i can try work with the height of the repeating group to see if that will do any different

Check them, there is likely a difference, one of which I imagine is that maybe the plugin is not used in a repeating group or a table or the repeating group or table are not in a popup

christian_bargmann · 2025-04-15T15:29:32.365Z

yeah they are all used in repeating groups.. but im not using them in popups as i also say further up.. the popup is only used when they click the miniaure picture to display current cell’s the file in bigger view

boston85719 · 2025-04-15T15:30:13.721Z

if they are working in other places and are the same setup, just copy and paste it into the place you want it

christian_bargmann · 2025-04-15T15:58:43.344Z

that was what i did when i maked this one.. thats why i dont understand why it does this
