Hi!
I have two button components, one on top of each other. I would like to have the firsr button appear if a user has not clicked on it (while the second is hidden) and then the second button to appear once they do, where the first one hidden.
Any idea how I can do this?
Is there also a way I can tell which users clicked on the first button?
Thanks!
You could use compound actions and āset columnsā for every button click in a new column.
If you want a log of all the clicks, you could use add row and have another sheet that has a list of rows for every button click as well.
Create a column in your User Profiles sheet to record this, and then set a value in that column when the user clicks the button. It can be any type of column, but I usually use a date/time column, and set it to the current time. This tells me:
Give this a go. You could simple use a counter. Each button press increases the count by 1. If Even button 1 shows, if odd button 2
This might explain better what I am trying to achieve.
So here is the front-end setup:
Everytime a user clicks the āredeemā button on an offer, the number goes down until there no more left. Iām using increments instead of the set columns (not sure if that has a similar effect?) as @Manan_Mehta mentioned. Once they click on the redeem button for a specific offer, the button on the bottom appears and they cannot use this offer anymore. In turn, the top button bar disappears.
On the backend I have this setup on the offers sheet. I was wondering if these should be user-specific? Or should this be on the user profiles sheet instead? I think you mentioned this @Darren_Murphy If so, how can this be linked to the offer sheet and specific offer?
I was also thinking I would have to create some type of relation on this sheet linked to the user profile sheet, or vice versa if itās supposed to be on the users profile sheet. Maybe I should create a redeemed column on the user profiles sheet and link that as a relation to the offer sheet? Not too sureā¦
Thanks! Yes Iām using increments, my problem is trying is figuring out how to tie a click to specific user.
Hi Jen,
This is actually quite simple. All you need to do is make the āRedeemedā column in your Offers sheet a User Specific Column.
If the offers are limited to one redemption per user, that can be a boolean column. Otherwise, make it a numeric column.
Then every time a user clicks the āRedeemā button, you do two things:
Then you use the state of those two columns to drive your component visibility.
And thatās it!
In addition, if Redeemed is true then show a failure notification, telling the user that they have already redeemed the code (and play some sound).
Do you think thatās better than just having the bottom button appear while the top button bar disappears?
It is a good alternative, yes.
Oh, thanks! So I have a multi action setup, I have an -1 increment on the avilable column, but donāt see what I have have for the redeem column? There is no āmark trueā or ācheck offā action.
Use Set Columns, and then set a custom value of true
Thanks! Havent used that action yet, so waasnt sure what it did. So I switched to another user and the āredeemā button does not appear. I have the visibilty set to show when redeemed is false.
Also, is there a way to tell which users redeemed the offer?
To do that, youāll need to:
Thanks! I will try, the redeem button is not showing up however when I view as a new user.
Try setting the visibility as ānot trueā (use all lowercase true)
Actually, @Jen_NYCP - just thinking about that you shouldnāt need that relation, as you should be able directly set the column
ie. Set Columns ā User ā column name
ānot trueā doesnāt seem work either
hmm, it should. When you switch to another user, what do you see in that user specific column?
the box is unchecked
