I’ve searched a bit and while I’ve found people talking about this on edit screens, don’t feel like it quite pertains to my issue. When I am signed into anything other than the first account I created, I can’t get items to display with visibility per signed in user. ![Screen Shot 2020-04-23 at 1.46.29 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/8/8ad47cde475990df3fe0f0472cd513e845bf823a.jpeg) Here I have a screen where I want elements to show if the user is signed in. Ultimately I wanted to put a button that said if you aren’t signed in, you should make an account and have this area only available to users with a profile. ![Screen Shot 2020-04-23 at 1.46.51 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/b/bd7874103bac71ba7d309e8d89593cf6bf40c5ea.png) I was signed in with this user when it worked. Then I try to sign in with another user, using the preview function and typing in a new email address. ![Screen Shot 2020-04-23 at 1.47.07 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/4/44179234d8c497b8fbbb21525cf57fb848c03203.png) Now I have nothing on this screen even though I’m signed in. ![Screen Shot 2020-04-23 at 1.47.16 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/3/31b319941c81c32aea4afee16d9fd79c2c8973c5.png) Am I missing how this function is supposed to work? Or is this a bug? My app’s URL: [bft3f.glideapp.io](http://bft3f.glideapp.io) ---

Signed In User means it checks the email in the column of that row and compares it to the user that is signed in. If the emails don’t match, then the components won’t show. It is not meant to indicate if a user is signed in or not. If you are selecting the signed in user option, then it means you have set your privacy to Public with Email or Whitelist, which means everyone has to sign in to use the app. I’m guessing nothing is showing because your email column only contains the first email address you used. Do you really mean that you want a user to complete a profile first, and then only those users that have completed their profile will see the components? This is probably more along the lines of what you actually want. > [@BUG in visibility](https://community.glideapps.com/t/bug-in-visibility/3831/10): > > First of all, I have highlighted several times in the forum how to set conditional visibility using ‘signed in user’, where only those users that fully complete their profile will have a button hidden from view, so it is definitely possible. As for you visibility issue, I can’t tell if your detail view is filtered or not. Are you actually viewing a row in the table where you are signed in as test@tester.testing, or is the detail screen sitting on a non-existent row because you are signed i… ---

Is what a bug? The empty screen? I don’t think so. If it’s set up correctly, it should work. ---

So I realized the issue, I had the screen set on detail view so that I could make the choice components and an inline list, but I wasn’t filtering by signed in user from the detail level. Only on the component level. Once I filtered by signed in user on the detail level then my components began to work correctly because it was comparing it to the correct row. ---

@RyanThomas Hi, How do you show email address After logging in ? Thanks. ![9440](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/7/7f330e1ae821878030993a12aa6794775fa417c0.jpeg) ---

How do you want it to look like? You can either show it in a text, rich text or an email component. ---

@ThinhDinh Thanks. What I want to do is to change visibility by logged or not user. There is user email row but it doesn’t have whether logged. ![スクリーンショット 2020-10-01 14.07.52](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/4/407e1627c98b9cf6a06d83a8b8d022c5b1e4fc79.jpeg) ---

Can I assign “User’s email address” in form to “User email” in visibility of button element? ![スクリーンショット 2020-10-01 14.13.48](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/d/d0de1679c947f4bd44fef161e410dc429fba0b95.png) ---

User email is empty/is not empty should work if you’re using a public app. ---

I’m glad you posted this initial issue. My resolution wasn’t exactly the same but this sparked my investigation to help me find my solution. In my case the users weren’t seeing anything because the table had some User Specific columns. Much appreciated. Thanks for the spark!
