I’ve created a few Inline lists but must have brain fog now lol. I have a sheet called “Users”, with columns for each user’s social links for Instagram, Facebook, etc. I just want to create an Inline List to display each user’s social profiles in a row on their Public Profile page. I think where …

[image] Dynamically access social links in Glide - using new actions Community Resources Probably you have wanted to build a dynamic list of social links: Email, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. before but there’s no straightforward way to do it without costing rows. Now…

I got it to work, just not a fan of showing a social icon when the link is empty and just showing a notification that “no link”. Not sure how to only show ones with content in it. Edit** Actually if you use Filter: “Dynamic Link” is not empty, it works! Also implemented a “Set Column” - Clear Valu…

This solution actually didnt work for me as people who arrive directly into the user profile wont have the chance to Set the Columns as they bypass the Button with the associated Action. :open_mouth:

What’s your current setup? When you say “User profile”, do you mean the profile section in the hamburger menu or a tab you currently have? Either way it does not work as you said, and you might need to resort to multiple lines for multiple social links for this. Then it would be an easy inline list …

Well the primary reason why your solution doesn’t work for me is that users have a “public profile” that they can share on social media. But if you click directly into the public profile, there was no prior action to set the dynamic link column. Thus none of the social profiles are displayed when a …

Well in that scenario, as I said, you would need multiple rows in a different Sheet for different social links.

At that point I’d probably build a template column that dynamically creates a markdown or html table to display icons with links in a single row. An inline list isn’t going to work without using up rows.

So in the template column, you’d write CSS and use say LINK1 and IMG1 in the code. Then replace LINK1 with the URL of the social profile for that user and then replace IMG1 with the image URL for the social Icon?

Correct. But I wouldn’t call it CSS unless you are actually going to use stylesheets to change the look. Instead, it would either be Markdown or HTML syntax Creating a table with markdown would be the simplest solution, but lacks a lot of functionality and is hard to get it to span the full widt…

Alright, after a ton of frustration, I dont think the table will work for 1 primary reason. I have the Table HTML code, but in order to dynamically display social icons that only have links, I need to dynamically insert the additional lines of HTML per link, which I was able to accomplish. However…
