Hello, I searched through the posts but couldn’t find an answer. Do you know if it is possible to make text disappear after a certain duration? For example, from midnight to midnight. I type a text at 8:00 and it is deleted automatically at 24:00. Thanks for your help! ---

If you want it truly deleted, then you’d have to run an automation/script. Otherwise, you can certainly HIDE it at a certain time (visibility: show when date is within today). ---

Thank you for your answer! What a responsive community… I imagine that adding automation is not within the reach of a beginner even with some effort? Concerning option 2 (hide), I cannot find this type of option (or type of rule) in the visibility tab. If there is another way, I’m a taker! Thank you again for your help ---

I guess it depends what text you’d like to hide. I imagine it’s either an inline list item or it’s some sort of global notification on a tab? It would look something like this: > **[Experiments · Glide - 22 June 2022](https://www.loom.com/share/6381118dd20640baa77b9d6c5ae78706)** ---

hi robert, Thank you for your feedback, I think you have found the solution. I will test all of this. My English isn’t great and I don’t understand everything in your video, I’ll have to do some tests but I think you’re really not far from what I want… If you speak French I’m a taker! 😃 Thanks again ---

Hi @Juano, Welcome to the community. @nathanaelb might be able to assist if you are looking for a French speaker in the community. He is also quite good with Glide and he is always very willing to help. I have tagged him, so he will definitely jump in and help translate where you are having difficulties with the video. ---
