Hi there My App has ‘Parent Only’ tabs. I created a Users sheet and added 75 email addresses. I then added a column for ‘user specific’ and filled the column with ‘True’. I then made the newsletter component 'visible if Newsletter contains True. This worked well. But then the column filled with True became empty. So I refilled. It was now working again. This has happened constantly. Any ideas why? Did I miss something when setting up? Due to having to constantly refill the 75 rows with True, I see that I can’t fill down in any way? Thanks, Jeanette ---

If you’re using a public app, that “User Specific” column will be cleared out after a while. What you can do is, if I’m understanding how you construct it, is to add that True column as a normal column in your sheet and do the filter with it. In the Users sheet you also have emails that are not available to view Newsletters right? ---

Yes, it is Public. I have a Users sheet that contains the emails of all users who CAN view the Newsletter. This users sheet ALSO contains a column called Newsletter and another called Timetable both of which are ‘user specific’ those 2 columns are prefilled with true. The Newsletter component has a visibility set to only view if signed in person has their row with an approved email and True. Thanks, Jeanette ---

Change them to a normal column that can be viewed inside your sheet and mark the TRUE cells as you wish. That would work. ---

Should this column be in my google spreadsheet or the ‘Data’ dashboard version? ---

It should be in your Spreadsheet so that the value won’t go away. ---

Thank you so much! I made the changes and had some of the users test for me. All is now working as I wanted. Thanks again, Jeanette 🙂 ---
