Stacker Customers

Would you be able to send through some more information to <mailto:support@stackerhq.com|support@stackerhq.com>? If you could record your screen or send screenshots that would be ideal!

<https://www.loom.com/share/45e8f8e56d4d421a9e01e33fc4b02808>

it is showing me name in the drop down not in the field.

Thank you for recording this - could you email it to <mailto:support@stackerhq.com|support@stackerhq.com>?

Who's coming to the <https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIoduuuqz4rG9Cr8_bGdG2C97YHijwkNKG2|Stacker Catchup> next week? Looking forward to chatting with you all :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi <@U03LREH528K>! If you haven't already, I'd recommend taking a look at the <https://www.stackerhq.com/stacker-experts|Stacker Experts> page.

oh thank you! I had asked for a page like this but was told that didn't exist and I needed to reach out within this group, so thank you for this!

<@U03LREH528K> you can also request a job in <#C039NHU65RN|> if you’d like.

Also, sorry for the conflicting information on our end. Our Stacker Experts program was on pause until recently, and we are now looking to reboot it.

I use Airtable Automations for most simple things, Make to test new automations quickly, and Pipedream for serious automations

I've been experimenting more and more with Airtable automations, really like the interface. Never played with Pipedream - curious what a serious automation looks like? Enterprise stuff?

<@U03G3BA8ZE3> it's really amazing. think the halfway point between Make and Coding. It lets you code using NodeJS, you can access the full NPM library, but it handles things like Authentication, SSL and all that annoying stuff for you

It also has a nice library of pre built connectors so similar to Zapier but you can edit the underlying code to suit your needs

That's super interesting, thanks for sharing. I suspect it would have been useful in a project I was working on a while back, I'll investigate it more

Curious as how to how you all connect the pipes behind the scenes - I'm definitely a Zapier guy :zap:

Hi Eli :wave::skin-tone-2:, there is a Stacker add-on called Fast Sync that reduces the time down to 5 minutes - details here: <https://support.stackerhq.com/hc/en-us/articles/4409591838995-Automatically-syncing-data>

For the second part of the question there's not currently a way to trigger data sync for new records in Airtable, but it's something that could potentially be part of a Zapier integration down the line - would you be able to add a bit of information about how you'd want to use it on this page here? <https://stacker.canny.io/feature-requests/p/zapier-integration>

I think there's been some new CSS classes released which might help with this. You could probably change the button size to fix this

For buttons you can certainly do custom CSS now - documentation here: <https://support.stackerhq.com/hc/en-us/articles/4414348793747-Release-Notes>

Thanks <@U01QZ40HRFW> and <@U03G3BA8ZE3>. My coding skills are rusty... how do i apply this css?

Hey Robb, if you head to App settings -&gt; Appearance -&gt; Custom CSS you add it there. You'll need to use the selectors from the documentation linked above, something like:

`.stk-button {`
  `min-width: 60%;`
`}`

min-width is just a suggestion of a style to play with, you'll need to have an explore of different styles and try things out: <https://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_buttons.asp>

Let me know how you get on!


_Edit: I realise that the .stk-button example I gave targets a few more buttons (like the app navigation bar on the left._ 

Thanks again <@U03G3BA8ZE3> much appreciated!

Hey Joe, Stacker Tables are basically a database that is stored right in Stacker (rather than using Airtable, say) - there's some more information about how they work right here:

<https://support.stackerhq.com/hc/en-us/articles/7061981246611-Stacker-Tables-Adding-new-fields>

Let me check in about Postgres and I'll get back to you!

<@U03G3BA8ZE3> Cool! So is that accurate that they do NOT need to be synced? Unlimited rows?

Yep, no syncing required - will check in with the team about row counts and get back to you on that too.

<@U02ASREC1R6> Virtually unlimited rows, though the app performance will vary depending on the complexity of the app

<@U02N890SW84> Thank you! Any word on Postgres read/write capabilities?

<@U02ASREC1R6> We don’t have any immediate plans for Postgres write capabilities, but we do have read capabilities

Hey <@U0393AW3D37>,

It sounds like you would like to have Inline filters that show up on the table—those that you can turn on and off.

For now we only support static filters. These are the ones you see when you click Edit layout &gt; Filter.

If you haven’t already, you can vote for the inline filtering by date feature on our <https://feedback.stackerhq.com/feature-requests/p/sort-list-by-multiple-optionsinline-sort|feature request board>.

ill have to dig in but it looks like a notation problem.  Try adding . before .stk-save-button:after

```.stk-button-text .stk-save-button {
    visibility: hidden;
    position: relative;
}

.stk-button-text .stk-save-button:after {
    visibility: visible;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    content: "Confirm";
}```

althought i think all you’d need is the `.stk-save-button` selector anyway

Thanks <@U01B1LTTYQJ> with the rapid response! That doesn’t seem to do it, though thanks for correcting the notation. I tried it both ways, didn’t catch…

let me see real quick if I can mdoel it out.

<@U01JV1M8PS8> you were actually able to change the language from “Save” to “Confirm”? Doing it via CSS isntead of JS is strange to me

Screen Shot 2022-06-23 at 1.04.21 PM.png

Yeah, I used the following, and it gave me this:
```.stk-button-text {
    visibility: hidden;
    position: relative;
}

.stk-button-text:after {
    visibility: visible;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    content: "Confirm";
}```

I agree, I’d rather do it differently, but I lack the JS experience, and need to send that to the team anyways to add, since no access to JS from stacker directly.

you should/can ask them to sideload a JS script that you just edit via FTP or wahtever.  Let me get the JS code

this is messy but your team can clean it up prob lol:

`document.getElementsByClassName("admin-detail-view-save-button")[0].innerText="Confirm"`

i actually think you’ll need a `.stk-create-page` selector in there too to make it better

To target elements that have multiple classes in that element:
```.class1.class2 {

}```
This will target an element like `&lt;button class="class1 class2"&gt; &lt;/button&gt;`

You might find these two resources from W3Schools interesting:
• <https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp|CSS selectors>
• <https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_selectors.asp|CSS selectors deep dive>

When it comes to learning JS, my suggestion would be to look into jQuery, which is one of the more simple JavaScript libraries. The thing I like about it is that the syntax is fairly simple, and once you know what’s possible you can copy-paste a bunch of code that works without much tweaking.

Here’s a <https://www.w3schools.com/jquery/default.asp|really good jQuery tutorial>, again from W3Schools.

Btw these suggestions come from me as a community member, not me as a Stacker support person. :simple_smile: Me as a Stacker support person says that we should definitely make changing text easier in the future.

Hey <@U0393AW3D37>,

Only one Create layout per table for now, though this might be something we’ll revisit in the future. You can vote for the feature on our <https://feedback.stackerhq.com/feature-requests/p/multiple-create-layout|feature request board>.

If you haven’t voted yet, I would encourage you to leave a comment saying why the feature would be useful to you. Understanding different use cases for feature requests helps us prioritize features.

Thanks <@U02N890SW84>. I'll vote for the feature

Hey <@U0393AW3D37>,

While there isn’t a built-in way to do this, you could perhaps make a hacky solution by making use of <https://support.stackerhq.com/hc/en-us/articles/4409799378835-Auto-filling-values-into-create-forms|autofill URLs>.

You can also add your thoughts to our <https://feedback.stackerhq.com/feature-requests/p/filter-form-options-based-on-selection|Filter forms based on selection> feature request.

Thank you <@U02N890SW84> I'll look into this

Hi Ellie, it's not currently possible I'm afraid - there's a feature request here, would you be up for upvoting it and adding any extra thoughts on how you'd use it?

<https://feedback.stackerhq.com/feature-requests/p/airtable-column-for-registered-customers>

Hi <@U03E1HNJ3PB>, would you be able to send through more details including a link to the workspace to <mailto:support@stackerhq.com|support@stackerhq.com>? Thank you!

Hi <@U03E1HNJ3PB> This should be possible, please can you reply to the message I sent through support and I can get that sorted for you.

Or at least  who from the Stacker team would be equipped to chat about that?

Hoping that’s a topic on the Thursday “catchup” session too!

I'm just trying to find out an answer to this - will let you know when I get something concrete!

Hi <@U03M06VQE2K>, welcome!

We’d love to take a closer look. Can you please reach out to our support through the support widget? That’s the question mark icon in the app &gt; Contact us.

We will need:
• Your Workspace URL
• Support login enabled. In Stacker, click your profile image &gt; My Settings &gt; Support login, and check the box.

If you load it in Safari then go to Share &gt; Add to Home Screen it’ll look like an app

Hi Robb, you should be able to delete apps that you created in your workspace. Can you please send through the url of the app you cannot delete to <mailto:support@stackerhq.com|support@stackerhq.com> and we can take a look at why you are not able to delete it.

Hey <@U0393AW3D37> - we're working on a fix for this right now.

Screen Shot 2022-06-29 at 7.42.25 AM.png

Well, I'm embarrassed to say I found after sending my semi-rude message. Apologies. <@U012WD5EDE0> was right. However, I'm nervous to delete it because I have so much work in all the other apps. In this screen shot, I have the app I want to delete selected, and I'm in the Settings with the delete button ready. Is this the correct procedure?

Follow-up question: if I delete an app mistakenly... is there any back-up on your end?

Hi Robb, yes that is the place to delete your apps! We would not recommend unless you truly don’t want this any longer. Once deleted we cannot get this back, there is a lot of warning before deleting the apps though, we haven’t had. anyone accidentally delete an app yet.

Hi Luke, The avatars are set in My settings when a user logs. There isn’t a way to access the images in your base, this is saved in Stacker.

Hi all. I'm experiencing an issue in which I log in as one user but seeing the profile of another (different shown profiles for different users). I wonder if anyone else has this too. Thanks.

Getting that same issue this AM and had a few others mention the same thng

Thanks if you could send messages with screenshots, details of what you are seeing etc

Just had another user report this for another app of mien

Looks like the “is current user” filter isn’t working as expected

Hi Yaniv, please can you send the details of your url and what is being shown through to support, I can add this to the open issue for the team.

Just to let you know that I have flagged this with the team and they are looking into this now.

Looks like there was an update rolled out overnight. My guess is something is causing user permission filters to go haywire since I’m noticing “is current user” and “has role admin” filters are the ones affected.
