I have a website where employees can submit work requests. These submissions are put onto a database visible on the site (through a table). There is a dynamic page for each submission that displays the submission in more details when the name is clicked on the table.
I would like to add a checkbox to the dynamic page that me or another manager of the site can click. This checkbox will say completed on the table next to the corresponding submission. How do I set that up?
The checkbox is just to connect to the dataset on the dynamic page to the field in your data collection. How are you handling managers? Do you have a separate data collection that maps users to roles?
Manager isn’t a role, I simply mean the two or three people who will go back to click that checkbox. The checkbox shouldn’t be locked to anyone.
I already tried adding the corresponding dataset to the dynamic page, and linking the checkbox to that dataset. I click the checkbox and return to my database page and there is no update.
Have you ungrouped the checkbox itself so you just connect the checkbox and not the group? You also need to make sure that the corresponding field is a boolean field.
If that doesn’t work check permissions in data collection so that the dataset have read / write and not just read. And maybe also on the data collection it self if you use wixData and not datasets.
I’ll give that a shot, thank you
