I have two form buttons that are supposed to be attached to different tables.

When I change the source of one of them, the other one will change too. Why is this happening?

The second form button, for example, is supposed to be pointing at the professionals tables and have a different form, however, it keeps changing when I update the first button. Then when I update this one, it changes the other one to the professionals table and changes that form.

Why can’t I keep them separate? The dashboard is attached to the User’s table.

Any chance you duplicated the second button from the first?

I would suggest copying the elements from the second form, and starting with a brand new action to open a form, then pasting those elements over.

This is called being bound, as alive as death 😅  
The solution is to replace it with a new button, maybe the problem will be solved.

Maybe you’re on a Legacy Plan and couldn’t add CSS?
