How to create a search and order function in your flutterflow app

[@jeffgalak9402]

Really helpful and worked well!

[@zorro8625]

Thank you for the nice explanation. I hope you make a video about filtering more often, especially with app state 👍

[@leomcmillion]

Sorry for the super late response. And yeah totally, can make a video about that.

[@hardeepsingh-bc3kb]

Thank you for the video. Can you please suggest how to do the same with sqlite database stored locally instead of firebase.

[@mphatsomlenga8948]

Thanks for the video. Something is not right on my side. am trying to password the event document as parament to the function but when you click on the event document, it can't be selected. What could be the problem?

[@leomcmillion]

That could be because you have not selected the "Document" datatype for the parameter when defining your function. Try checking so all your parameters in the function has the right datatypes. Usually when you can't pass a parameter somewhere in flutterflow it is because there is a mismatch in datatypes. Hope tha helps!

subscribed, keep up the good videos .👌

Thanks! Will try my best:)

Thanks for the video. I have been struggling with this and you have helped me. Is there a way of linking the search to a text label outside the list view, making the text conditionally appear with, ‘no results found’ when nothing is found?

[@leomcmillion]

Absolutly, just create a custom component for what you want to display when no results are found. And then inside the column where you generate your items just check the box "Empty List Widget" and select your component. Let me know if this was understandable, otherwise I can release a short video on how to do this.

[@Jakenobleuk]

Thanks for your quick response 👍🏼👍🏼. It makes sense in principle and I will look forward to trying it out tomorrow. However, if you feel like doing a video that would be amazing. But no pressure. Thanks again.

Hello Leo, thank you for this new video! I wanted to ask you if you could make a video explaining how to create the fire base security rules to protect the data of our users and also prevent someone from damaging or deleting our database 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@leomcmillion]

Already got a video explaining the basics in flutterflow/firestore security rules, but that one is rather simple. Can absolutely record a video that goes more in depth and shows how to write your own security rules. But have gotten many other request before, so could take a week or two until I release this video.

Thanks Leo, you are doing a great job. following your video on OpenAi ChatGpT, how do I filter or sort the OpenAI message response by an Id variable. I tried adding a variable named IdNumber (I used a custom function to convert it to a string variable) so when I get the OpenAi response, an Id with a unique predetermined number like Id2 is created, so I can then filter by that Id. The first request OpenAi works but subsequent requests fail. Any ideas on how to achieve this. The idea is to be able to filter the response from the dynamically generated children list. Thanks for your help

[@leomcmillion]

Have you created a (sub)collection for the messages? In that case you can just follow the instructions in the video for filtering the generated children. When it comes to why your subsequent requests fail, it is probably becasue some of the inputs you pass to the API call becomes non-valid after the first request. So I would recommend to think through how the variables you pass change after the first request.

Leo, where is the link to the template code or the project?

[@leomcmillion]

Just updated the link in the description so it works. It had become outdated. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

How can it be adapted for the Supabase. It gives an error in the "item.url." part.

[@leomcmillion]

I don't work with Supabase that much so am unsure why .url should not work if you added that field to the right table. Let me know if you find out how to access fields of a supabase document in the custom code.

[@JuanPerez-vv5lk]

please go straight to the point, we all know what flutterflow is. thanks.
