Create and save list selections | Bubble.io Tutorial

Using Bubble.io, we'll explore how to create and save list selections in your nocode application.
Utilising states is the best and most performant way to create clickable list selections for your users. We don't want to write to the database on every click, rather we want to compile a list in a list state and then write to the database in a single workflow.
Join an exciting learning community at buildcamp.io and learn how to build nocode web applications with Gregory John, official Bubble.io bootcamp instructor, coach and multiple startup founder 🚀.

Thank you so much for that!!! Really appreciate it

[@AngusLou]

This is exactly what I am looking for

[@AhmedKhodir-novyPro]

Thanks! that was very helpful

[@뿌린대로거두는법이여]

I really thank you for this video. The video is so useful to make an app on bubble.

[@PeteHuey]

This is a great tutorial, explained well. Thanks!

[@Abel_Conde_Bubble_io]

Helpful, thanks for the video!

[@luminrabbit9488]

Absolutely amazing! Thank you!

[@zulfikarbektas]

thanks for the video, its very simple and amazingly easy to understand :)

[@marmanlive]

Thank you. Would be interesting also to see how to store values (from an option set) of the checked boxes to the database.

[@Buildcamp]

Store option set value as type 'Option Set' - literally a list of option sets as states.

[@benm7612]

How long will the list state persist on the page? e.g. if navigate to another page on the site then come back, will it retain the radio boxes checked?

[@AnthonyWeeden]

Clear, beautiful and well-paced videos. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. I'd very much appreciate hearing your solutions to making performant, bulk edits to a multiple selection e.g. editing a field, such as a boolean yes/no field, on a selection of Users. Thanks again.

[@giovanniroos4417]

Amazing!

[@_setr1x_476]

Thank you so much, this really helped me

[@thefirstword6691]

thank you so much this is brilliant

[@jandonaj]

Thank you ❤

[@andreasilva5827]

Hello! Do you know how I make a text field copy the user and that at the moment a message is sent it appears that it has been sent? Please

[@melisajoun1706]

how about if i would like to edit the lists though?

[@olhandoacima]

Hello, I'm watching your classes, I'm finding it wonderful, but this new version of the bubble doesn't have the Full list option. Can you tell me if there is another way to use full list in the repeating group?

[@saimang1959]

what if you want to remove the specific user from the team? Thanks

[@jeremyleroux8108]

Your videos are excellent I have used it this method save various things to the database. As well as drop downs to filter results in a repeating group. But cant figure out how to combine the two. To Have the custom states results or selected filter items in a repeating group. Is this info available in your course? It seems like this type of selector function is common for search results.

[@AlfaEricWashDC]

For Repeating Group to work, Must you have more that one Data Type? For example, I have by default the User Data Type, and have added other Fields in it, instead of creating a new Data Type like you did with Teams. Yet I still want my Repeating Group to pull results from User to show the list of profile member (ie you “teams”) I dont see how the network needs more that one Data Type when each filed is different. I’m confused because it seems like I have to create duplicate fields in other Data Types, So instead I use the one. Please advise.

[@GuiTalarico]

You are a life saver. Very helpful and incredibly clear!

[@choongching]

This tutorial is so good, love the pace. However, may I ask, why not use the native checkbox component instead of creating the states using icons? Are there any differences at all?

[@coug8139]

Do you have a video that would show how to do this using a field of the Data Type (for example having a list of all the teams on the left RG) that you use to select/unselect users in the right RG) based on the team assigned to each user?

[@yewebs2014]

Thank you for sharing this. Could you share how to sort the items in a repeating group with the draggable item plugin? Appreciate.

[@avagud1]

Ive noticed in the new system there's no "Layout Style" option. Where is that found to set up scrolling for repeated groups. FYI new to Bubble...

[@marciobremer]

Wooow this tutorial give me a step foward! I am trying to make a product selection to make a invoice, when I selected the products they goes to same line on my reapeating group, I did almost the same like you, but I have to adaptate. How can I make a selection of my list of products and he go to a line on my side repeating group, If I selected another product he go to another line? Thank you!!

[@juanjoge]

Fanatstico video, I helped me a lot to understand some things, but why I can not see all users? I see only the one who is logged in. thanks!

[@thefirstword6691]

by attaching the state to the page and not the element itself, it caused me a bit of trouble as the repeating group i wanted to show the list in could not access the state. By redoing it with the state attached to the repeating group i could access the state from another repeating group.

[@calderaricaio]

Do you have any tutorial showing how to setup calendars and recurring dates? Selecting and scheduling events... etc I’m not sure the default calendar would be the best or if it’s possible to build the calendar components from scratch.

[@Buildcamp]

This is possible, will create a tutorial soon.

[@siddymaemontemayor7429]

Thanks much for this.

[@Buildcamp]

My pleasure!

[@suchithraab8515]

when i click on create button, name and users fields are updating in team but instead of user name its saving as some number. why?

[@cathyjohnson6858]

I learn so much from your videos. Thank you! One question, is it possible to sort a RG list alphabetically with geographic locations?

[@montassar_akrmi]

What if I want to add the team name to the user database?

[@beyondcraziness8847]

Hi, I am trying to making an application on bubble, and I want to operate my application with the help of keyboard. So the problem is I want a focus in the repeating group, so that I can move that focus with the help of up down arrow key from the keyboard and whenever I click enter key than that perticular index data should be displayed in the input form, Help me out, if you have an alternative solution than you can tell me that too.

[@jimcrow2000]

Great tutorial, the question is now how do you call these data lists when you wish to edit them?

[@gregggottschling3441]

And how do you delete the teams entirely?

[@chrisc1981]

Golden nugget at 7:57

[@AlfaEricWashDC]

Couldnt you have the “Image Field, Name Field, Job Title Field” in the User Data Type? Must you make a “Team” Data Type?

[@micci10]

Hey! Thks for this amazing work! It helps a lot to not get stucked (sometimes :) So, is there any option to DELETE (using a button inside RG) the especific "text item" from the list? Ex: I added some team member (checkbox) by mistake and I need to Remove it after saved on DB. Thnks again for your videos

[@xMaarcio]

I have this same question

[@davidsuter5706]

This is a great refresh into bubble. How do I assign this page to a specific user. Ie when a new user signs up, he or she and only he or she sees the list that they created.

[@Buildcamp]

You'd create a page and set the type of content to 'User' - after the person signs up, the final workflow step would be 'go to page' and the 'data to send' would be 'current user' - you're now sending that user to a page that relates to them.

[@raynellbell2428]

Greetings, is it possible to process an image using the imagerx feature in a workflow?

[@Buildcamp]

Not with the Bubble implementation which is a data call.

[@Asq1986]

[@RobNieves]

I really appreciate your knowledge and willingness to teach us Bubble but a gentle critique is that you spend way too much time getting the design just right when we just want to see the action come to life. In this 19-minute video you spent nearly 7 minutes on design. You would probably get more likes if you shorten your videos and got straight to the quesiton. Please forgive me for my boldness here but I've also purchased your udemy videos and it's difficult to follow when we're diverted to rabbit trails of design.

[@camillasilva3375]

Thank you 🥰

[@Buildcamp]

Hey Rob - always appreciate constructive feedback and you are right, 7 min on design is too long. I will say that I get a lot of appreciation for weaving design into my content as well but perhaps it's weighted the wrong way. Will keep it in mind for future videos.

[@RobNieves]

@@Buildcamp Your design tips are excellent but I wish they were specific to design videos. Keep up the great work!
