What does User Profile=Profile:User do? I don’t know.

Can you elaborate? Where are you seeing that? Looks like a heading to set a reference.

I’m guessing this is in the Finstagram template, which needs to be updated to use new relations! @Xann that is our old reference syntax, ignore it!

What does that mean? Also, are you saying that the Finstagram template is outdated?

References/relations are used to link data from two different sheets together. The Glide Library had excellent explanations. https://docs.glideapps.com/all/

Like this? User Profile=Profile:User (&) Photos=Posts:User:Multiple :grey_question:

Yes, but as @david said, that is the old method (which still works if you choose to use it). The new method involves adding a new reference column in the data tab within the app builder and is much simpler to understand.

I watched the relations video and yes, it did seem very simple. But what do User Profile=Profile:User & Photos=Posts:User:Multiple do together? (They are from the FInstagram template.)

How do I make a friend list from the FInstagram template customized for every user? (How do I make an add friend ability and the ability to see mostly what friends post.)
