If you want to roll your own favoriting then there’s no point in using the “Is Favorited?” column. You can just make your own user-specific boolean column. The “Is Favorited?” column will only show up if you’re actually using the Favorite component, or you have a Favorite overlay. That’s why it’s not a good choice for going your own way. Historical reasons (the “Is Favorited?” column has been there for a year or so, it was just hidden until now). ---

Yes, but for some types of content, I do have the Favorite component/overlay, and to be able to create a discreet area of a users profile where they can access just their favorites is so important, because I think relying on the Favorites view within lists is hard for folks to find. It’s just not intuitive in terms of where a user would expect to find **their** favorites. I was rolling my own favoriting so that I could achieve something like this (using the Boolean and a Heart emoji), but as soon as the overlay came out, I tossed those make-shift favoriting buttons aside in favor of Glide favoriting… cause it just looks so good. Now knowing that you can actually use that favoriting data and can create discreet areas where a user can access their favorites (in a logical place like their own profile/account area), I’m absolutely thrilled. One thing I really hope you’ll enhance this with at some point though… switching out that Heart for at least a few other options. The “heart” symbol is far more associated with “liking” content from the standpoint of showing a creator your love for their content… whereas this button’s primary function is as a bookmark (things you save). While certainly there are platforms that use the heart for that, there are also “bookmark” icons (like these forums), “star” icons, “gift” icons, “shopping bag” icons etc. And it would be nice if we could choose between at least a few different types of the most popular icons used to save items for later. ---

Also, I’m unclear why creating your own boolean favoriting and using that to count favorites would be the better choice than using a some math columns, rollup columns and native “is favorite” column to calculate the total number of favorites a particular piece of content has across all users. With your own boolean favorite component you’d be restricted to using emojis for your favorite icon, you’d have to use a switch/checkbox (which is odd), and you’d have no way of creating a similar favorite overlay for graphics (which is such a great new feature). With the “Is Favorite” column accessible, I can’t imagine how creating your own favorite button would ever be preferential to using native “Is Favorite”. Perhaps I am misinterpreting. ---

I’m not saying you should roll your own favoriting, I just thought that’s what you wanted to do. If you’re happy with the Favorite system, all is good. Note that at this point Glide cannot count favorites across users yet. Doing rollups over user-specific columns is something we’ll definitely do, but we’re not there yet. ---

Ah, got it. I didn’t try, but just assumed it was there. I don’t need it at this point, to be honest. Being able to build custom favorite sections is enough for me right now. ---

Do wish there was an easy way to hide the ALL | FAVORITE selector from certain lists where it clutters things, isn’t totally relevant to an area of the app, and contributes to info overload for user. ---

I had the same thing, two tabs with different sheets. But I did “something” and All/Favourite went away (the detail page for this sheet doesn’t have the favourite component). Wish I knew what I did 🙂 ---

I switched to detail then back to list. It disappeared. Then had to go and untick the search. Not ideal, but at least I know now. ---

Is this still a bug? I can’t choose details view for an inline list. ---

In the inline list, you can find an option for the favorite button in the settings. Did you enable that? ---

Yes as a map and search tab. ---

In that case, since you are using favorites on that same data elsewhere, I would convert the tab to a Details style layout and add an inline list. That won’t show the favorites tabs at the top of the screen. ---

Yes, I did that for the others, but for the Map Tab, a details layout won’t work. ---

I also have multiple inline lists on my tabs, which cannot have a details style, so I guess there is no way to remove the favorites tab in this case? ---
