Whew, good to hear you got in. Yes it could have been the few min delay.

No it’s all in Google Script (javascript) attached to the sheet. I haven’t had a reason to use Zapier yet. Maybe someday if I need to hook to something besides my Google sheets.

There is a way to no show the sign up form, after I do the sign up? Now that I’m register would be cool not to see the sign up bottom all the time in the Home layout.

Yes, you can set the visibility condition for the sign up button to be “Signed up Email” isn’t signed in user. Signed up Email is a column I have in the Students Registration Sheet. When the user fills up the form after clicking the Sign up button, the user’s email address is sent as a special value to the Signed Up Email column in the sheet. Please note that, the security settings will be Public with Email for the app.image

@Rosewebstudio Tried it. It works, although with a warning.

Warning? I’m interested to know…

After switching to public, the filter has a warning that signed in user is not compatible, although it’s still selected.

I didn’t get that warning, perhaps something has changed since I tried it. Would be great it it does work

It was just the red text, like if you have two components pointing to the same column. It sure makes sense to have it as an option.

Nice. Can you explain what that time stamp column is? How do you generate a time stamp/why don’t you use the date/time special value?

Its the date/time special value only. Time stamp is how it is referred to glide, I think.

Going off topic here vijay, but what tool/swill you be using to connect with the tutors?

I am using zoom for student to connect with tutor. So, when a tutor registers, they have to download zoom and get a meeting link and submit that. When a student sends a connect request and tutor accepts, it, the students sees a button " Join session" which will be linked to the zoom meeting link of the tutor. Same at the tutors side as well.
I also provide whatsapp link of tutor for student to connect on whatsapp.I havent yet launched it, still working out the best solutions.

Fantastic! Great app. Thank you.

You may check out the tutors app as well which is at tutorapp.glideapp.io and try to send a request from student app and then accept it from the tutors app to see how it works. There are some time delays as it is still not a PRO app. Thanks

Thank you vijay. It’s great to see how others are using Glide :slight_smile:

Congratulations for your app Vijay!!!
how do you make the hyperlink in the form where Zoom app is pointing to https://zoom.com/?
I want to create a sign up form where my user need to accept special terms and conditions. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Mcmurdok,
I used Markdown text for that.

The format for using markdown text for links is:

[I'm an inline-style link]([https://www.google.com](https://www.google.com))

You may check this for reference: https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet#links

And, for Terms and Conditions, have a checkbox component, which can be linked to a column data which will be TRUE or FALSE.

The Terms and Conditions can be in a link which can be provided in the text for the checkbox component.

Thanks

It pains me to have to say this but the sign in with public email feature is Glide’s biggest drawback. In this day and age, lazy ppl don’t have time to sign in with email and then sign up/register again. A basic feature of any mobile app in this day and age is the ability extended to the user/public to (1) download, (2) view unique parts of the app, then (3) sign up.

We shouldn’t have to vote to have this feature made available to us. This should be there for us as a normal feature. Not having it limits our ability to go pro and market glide apps to potential clients the way we would want. So Glide pls give us the ability to market glide apps to a bigger audience.

Hello @vijay! This literally falls in line with what I am trying to accomplish on my app. I want it to open with the create profile option only and then when user creates the profile, they will have access to the rest of the app. I created the profile form and button… just don’t know how to make the rest of the app functions not visible.
