WARNING: Your layouts can be wiped out with a couple key strokes. After a week of rebuilding my templates due to another Glide issue (row restrictions even after upgrading) I decided last minute to add images at the top of my layout. Followed the Glide AI and add a new component to top of my leaderboard layout. AI said to use a card component and source that to a table with my photos. Did that. Came back to my leaderboard and every component I had previously created was gone. Several conversations with various AI sites suggest this is a known issue with Glide and I’ll once again need to rebuild the app. Creators of Glide. How is this happening. What a failure. I’ll comeback to edit if Glide support can figure it out. ---

When you change collection layout from the screen itself, it may reset the entire screen. This is not a bug, but a feature. If you don’t want this to happen, I would recommend you to change the collection layout from the collection directly. This won’t affect the rest of the screen. Tell me if it works! ---

Yeah, unfortunately, you lose your work… I am really sorry. If it can give you hope, I know Glide is working on version control. I can’t tell when it will be out or announced. ---

Every time I need a different layout, I first copy the layout tab I have. That way if something goes wrong – and it typically does – I have the old layout still there. Simply use the Glide “Duplicate” feature on the tab you want to experiment with.
