How to keep public viewers from editing app

Hello! I created a Glide app and made it public. When anyone clicks the link I provide, they see an “edit” button on each page. How do I make sure the public can view, but not edit, my app?

This didn’t happen to me with my first Glide app, so I’m not sure why this is happening. Thanks in advance!

You can always disable the edit feature. You just need to select the component in the left hand panel that contains the edit button and remove the edit option in the right hand panel. Usually you see the edit button enabled either in collection components, title components, or any other components where you may have added an edit action.

If you still want the ability to edit yourself while removing the ability for others, then you can simply add the appropriate condition to the edit action.

Use visibility conditions on the buttons. Public users (ones that aren’t signed in) have the condition of user profile → email → is empty.

Thank you! I thought it was something I had to change in “Settings,” I didn’t realize I had to click on the specific component. Thanks again!
