Hi All,

In **Glide Pages** I have a “projects” tab which you can drill down into. e.g. projects \> project x \> task x etc.

From a particular screen in another tab, when the user clicks a button I am trying to use the “Go To Tab” action to send them to the origin of the “projects” tab, however, it switches to whatever the user was last viewing on the “projects” tab.

Is there a way to send the user to the starting point of the “projects” tab?

Thanks

You can use a series of Go Back actions.

Sorry, I just rephrased…“from a particular screen in another tab”

Okay. Same thing, but add a Go To Tab as the last step in the sequence.

Right that seems to work, but with the “go to tab” as first step in sequence - so I should have a “Go Back” action for each possible level the user can drill down into the “projects” tab?
