Hello, someone know if it possible the count likes with the " column is user specific ? "

Like if 10 peoples likes some thing in the app, I want to share this informations to my clients, but I dont find the option the count this users specifics.

I already know how to do it with add columns, but I want to know if, we can do it with the favorite option.

Thanks !

The short answer to this is no, it’s not possible.

The usual workaround is to replace the Favourite component with something else - perhaps a floating button or action text component - and use a custom action that sets the user specific column, and at the same time adjust a global counter.

Sad ! Because I like the visual and this option “likes”.
