For new users, I have a conditional form that displays via a button. However, this form creates an all new row each time instead of applying the details to the current user’s row.

My goal is to have a new user complete their profile. Is there a good example of how to do this?

Thanks for sharing this. I’ve watched these. I’m still having an issue with the triggered form generating a second user. About to give up on it, not sure if it’s a bug.

Don’t use a form button…forms add rows. Instead, just use conditional entry/picker components on the home screen.

Here’s what I do:

> wave Hello fellow Gliders! I wanted to share with you my newest template: Our Chores. I’ve seen several requests over the past week for a tutorial on task management as well as creating an onboard experience using the new User Profiles feature. I created version 1.0 of this app in under 24 hours—I plan on enhancing/gamifying it in the future. Take a look at the video tour below: If you’d like to try the app as a child, visit: If you’d like to make a copy for yourself, on a desktop, …

Thank you!

(In the Instagram sample app, they use a form button, which is where I got the idea to use it. )

The instagram template was created long before the user profiles feature was added. Probably something they need to update at some point.
