Custom Components for card layout

I have a data set with a card list, where each card represents a field or category. Each field can have up to 10 different items associated with it. When I select a card (like “Sportsmanship”), I want to display its associated items on a dedicated page for sportsmanship


. Similarly, when I select another card (like “Confidence”), I want its associated items to show up on a separate page. However, I’m running into these issues:

  1. When I switch to a new card or tab, the previous card’s data carries over, instead of showing data specific to the new card.
  2. All tabs or pages seem to be linked or dependent on each other, so any change I make on one affects the others.

How can I organize my data or structure my interface so that:

  • Each card loads its own set of items on its dedicated page?
  • Switching between cards doesn’t overwrite or mix up the data on different pages?

Additional Information:

  • There are 8 cards (fields), and each card can have up to 10 associated items.
  • Each page should independently display only the items for the selected card.

I believe @Robert_Petitto covers this in a recent youtube video… something about he “go to new page” action when clicking to view a card to solve this

Need some more clarification on your data structure first. For each card in your main collection, does it relate to a table that contains all items? Can you share a little more info on how the table that displays your cards is related to the data that is supposed to be displayed below each card?

There are several approaches to this, but it helps to understand the data structure to understand which is best.

Thanks everyone - I had 2 data sheets - I literally just now figured it out through a relationship link between the two sheets.

Spent hours on this lol.

Thanks everyone!!
