Hi! I added two favorite components that toggles from visibility based on if a user favorited a certain business but it doesn’t seem to be working correctly. In some instances, it doesn’t show up, in others, the favoriting seems to be a bit delayed. I click ‘Add to Favorites’ and it doesn’t change …

Thanks for that! Two apps are really not an option for me, it wouldn’t make sense for what I’m doing. I’m just wondering what everyone is doing to hide their private columns, I’m sure it’s not two apps. Row owners would work but since my app is a directory type of app those rows need to be seen by …

Jen - I wouldn’t be so hasty to dismiss the idea of making two app. From following your journey building this app, I suspect that having two apps might solve many of the problems and challenges you’ve been facing. Using two apps is more common than you might think. I’ve started doing it for some of…

[image] Darren_Murphy: The idea is that you have one app that is Public and requires no login or authentication at all, and a second that requires a login. So would user(s) of this public app still be able to create user profiles then?

Depends. Could be either/or. If you choose Public with email, then User Profiles are available. If you choose Public, then they are not. Which to use is very much a case by case decision.

Case-dependent, for sure. But for Business Owners (in this case) to have a login, do you mean having the settings reflect Owners being white-listed with password required access?

But won’t the second app (sheet) still be using data copied from the first app (sheet)? Im also getting a chance to look over my public glide sheet, if a row is deleted from the business sheet, I’m not seeing how the Public Row ID won’t carry over when that row gets deleted from the public sheet. I…

The apps share the same Google Sheet and therefore the same RowIds.

Also true, but not quite what I mean. What I’m getting at is: Say you have a Business sheet with three businesses (Business A, Business B, Business C) sorted in that exact order. Then you use a formula to copy them to a second public sheet in that same order. Now when you add a RowID to the seco…

HI @ThinhDinh I was just scanning through this thread because the favorites in one of my sheets uncheck themselves on their own as soon as I check them! I “think” I may have previously deleted the RowId column and then re-added it. Do you think that’s the cause of my issues? Cheers.

Jen - did you see that you can now assign multiple columns as row owners? (not sure if this will help in your case, but it might…)
