It should just be a matter of having a text field create a new Thing, inputting a Name field into that Thing, and then (on a separate page) having a repeating group search for the Thing, and the text field inside the group search for the Thing’s name. Correct?
My two questions, then, are what am I doing wrong based on the attached pictures? And can this ‘front page grid’ of names and/or pictures be created dynamically based on the number of names/pictures?
It doesn’t look like you are doing anything wrong from what you are showing. Can you share the link to the editor so we cna take a look?
Also couple of things to think about;
Data Type, I would change the datatype to ‘Profile’
I would change the field to ‘Name’ instead of Pname
Input field, simply call it Input Name
it will make the Readability easier as your app grows. If you look at the Create workflow, you would see this would become, “Create New Profile, Name = Input Name value” (and I would add :trimmed) to the end to clear off any spaces.
But the data source is showing in your original post. So I am curious if in your original example if
1 - you put a constraint on the Do a Search For, and if so what is it?
or 2 - if you have set up any privacy settings for your data → under Data Tab then Privacy
