I am creating a template in which signed-in users are able to edit text but the edit option is only available to signed in users. The content of the text is available to the public. I am not sure how to do this. ---

I think how you implement it depends on where/how you are trying to do it. Taking a card collection as an example you could set it like in the image below (and you could set the same condition for editing): ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/6/c/6cec855f959221708f02224b414921cf0623bb3f.jpeg) Some documentation from Glide that may help you are linked below. [Visibility Conditions | Glide Docs (glideapps.com)](https://www.glideapps.com/docs/reference/user-experience/visibility-conditions) [Roles | Glide Docs (glideapps.com)](https://www.glideapps.com/docs/essentials/security-and-user-data/roles) And if you have time I highly recommend the below YouTube channel from @Robert_Petitto, his guides helped me quickly understand many Glide concepts.

Another option if you don’t want to rely on Roles, is to simply add a condition that checks if the user profile email is not empty. When a user is signed in, the user profile will be linked to their user row, which should always have an email. If a user is not signed in, the user profile email will be empty because there is no user row to link to, and will prevent the edit option from showing. ---
