HI guys, I have a page where i ca create newposts that are written in the database... you can add text and a picture, and it works quite fine as long as you indeed add a picture. But if you want to only post some text, it won't work until you select an image. The code i use is this: export async function button3_click(event) { let numberOfLikes = 0 let toInsert = { postCreatorId: $w('#dataset1').getCurrentItem()._id, //userprofile dataset postCreatorImage: $w('#dataset1').getCurrentItem().profileImage, postCreator: $w('#dataset1').getCurrentItem().fullName, post: $w('#dataset6').getCurrentItem().post, //userposts write dataset postTitle: $w('#dataset6').getCurrentItem().postTitle, postImage: await uploadFile(), _createdDate: $w('#dataset6').getCurrentItem()._createdDate, numberOfLikes : numberOfLikes, numberOfComments : 0, numberOfViews : 0, numberOfShares: 0 } wixData.insert("userPosts", toInsert) .then( (results) => { let item = results; console.log("OK") $w("#userPosts").refresh(); $w("#textBox1").value = " "; $w("#input1").value= " "; $w("#thumbImage").src = ""; $w('#button4').hide(); }) ; } function uploadFile(){ return $w('#uploadButton1').startUpload().then(r => r.url); } export function button4_click(event) { if($w("#uploadButton1").value.length > 0) { $w("#uploadButton1").startUpload() .then( (uploadedFile) => { $w("#thumbImage").src = uploadedFile.url; }) .catch( (uploadError) => { console.log("File upload error: " + uploadError.errorCode); console.log(uploadError.errorDescription); }); } else { } } export function uploadButton1_change(event) { if($w('#uploadButton1').value.length > 0) { $w('#button4').show(); } else { $w('#button4').hide(); } } I am struggling to change the code so that IF i select an image, THEN it will handle the image adding functions (uploadbutton change, uploadfile, and button 4.click), OTHERWISE it will only add the text post (post and postTitle fields, but not postImage field). Any advices? Thank you in advance.

Hi all, i have a database called Groups, where the name of the social groups is stored, and each record has a 'number of posts' field: When i add a post in a group, let's say Passione Musica! (record 4), i want the relevant numberOfPosts value increased. I am using 'eq' to filter, but i don't know how to set the 'then' part: wixData.query("Groups") .eq("groupName", $w('#text50').text) // text50 is the text where the Group Name is written in the dynaic page .find() .then( (results) => { ..... //here goes the rest of the code I guess i must use a R/W dataset to read the curent value and increase it. Anyone can help? Thank you as usual.

It's about 3 weeks today since i started studying and coding on the Corvid platform, and during these weeks i' ve been testing my learning by creating a mini social network on Wix. I present you the result of my work so far, knowing it is an early stage and full of bugs. The name is !Yootie. I would like you to access it and have a look at all pages and functions, letting me know what improvements you would apply and how to solve the bugs. https://spherehost.wixsite.com/yootie You can access it with these credentials: email: testuser@yootie.com pass: yootieuser001 KNOWN BUGS when you Login, you are taken to your profile page but often the header buttons don't appear, you have to refresh the page in the User Wall page, you can only submit if you have added an image. Text-only posts won't be submitted (i don't know why!) when you like a post, the relevant field (numberOfLikes) in the userPosts database won't be incremented - [Solved] when you open a post in a dynamic single page, the numberOfViews should be incremented, but it is not [Solved] The first time you try to access the 'My Favorites' page it may show a blank or an error page, because you don't have any users added yet. Go to the Search Users / New Users page, visit a user, and add it to your favorites. Now your My Favorites page will work. Groups pages are 'free', i don't know how to add subscription.

Hi in my dynamic single post page (a page where i load a user post with all comments) i am trying to filter the comments based on the post ID. I use a database called 'comments' which contains the the name and picture of the user that leaves the comment, and the content of the comment textbox. A field called 'sourcePostId' is used for every comment to identify to what post in particular that comment is related. As of now (without filtering), when a user writes a comment, the same comment is shown in all the single post dynamic pages... I tried filtering with this code: $w.onReady(function () { wixData.query("comments") //database name .eq("sourcePostId", ("#text49").text) //respectively field in the database and text label showing post ID .find() .then( (results) => { $w("#repeater1").data = results.items; }) .catch( (err) => { let errorMsg=err; }); }); where text49 is a label that shows that particular post ID (stored successfully in the sourcePostId field of the database). There are 2 catches, i don't know if they affect the result. 1) I also have another on.Ready section used for login check $w.onReady( () => { if(wixUsers.currentUser.loggedIn) { $w("#Like").show(); } else { $w("#Like").hide(); } } ); 2) the repeater is connected to a dataset querying the database to retrieve the user's image and full name I have been stuck on this for the last 2 hours or so, and i cannot come up with a solution.... Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you

Hi all... my little social network exercise is going on, but i have a problem with favourites. I have set a myFavourites database, with field Owner visible and in the myFavourites(All) dynamic page i have a read only dataset connected to gather all favourites in a repeater. The point is, i cannot filter by Owner, because the field is not visible. The result is that since i cannot filter by owner, all users who access the 'my favourites' page from their profile see the same users in the list, instead of those they have added to their own list. How can i set the dataset properly or code a function that only shows each user's own favourites? As always, Thank you in advance! Alex

Hello everybody, I am moving my first steps with Corvid as i am developing a simple social network with posting and like system. It has a bunch of problems i need to solve, in this post i will just mention one that is bugging me... i need to implement the Like count. I mean, when somebody likes on a post via an icon, i want the number of likes to be shown near the icon. Here is how my page looks like in the Editor: So, everything has been connected via the datasets. The Like blue button is called Like, the Unlike red button is called Liked (and is hidden on load), the database is called Likes, ad the dataset is called Likes as well. The dataset, I have defined it as Read and Write, while the database contains a field called numberOfLikes set as a number, where i want to write to / gather from the number of likes for each post, that would be shown in the connected text between the 2 colored buttons (placeholder text: Likes). The full code of the image Like_Click event is like this: export function Like_click(event) { wixData.insert('Likes', {likedPost: $w('#userPosts').getCurrentItem()._id}), $w('#Liked').show(), $w('#Like').hide(); wixData.query("Likes").find().then((result)=>{ let likesitem = result.items[0]; let id = likesitem._id; likesitem.numberOfLikes++; wixData.update("Likes", likesitem).then(()=>{ $w("#Likes").refresh(); }); }) ; } Now, ignoring the part about userPosts, the actions to be accomplished by the click event are: - writing the post in a textfield (likedPost) in the Likes database via the Likes dataset - hiding the Like blue button - showing the red Liked button (to allow 'Unlike') - incrementing the value of the number in the database field numberOfLikes - retrieve the number just written in the numberOfLikes field in the Database and show it in the connected text between the 2 buttons. Everything is perfect in the first 3 points, but the 2 last points don't work, and i cannot figure out why... I don't get any error, simply the number does not show up. Looking at the Likes Database content, I can see that the numberOfLikes field has been updated, but it looks like every click on the Like button created a new record instead of updating the same one. Anybody please can help? I thank you in advance, please e patient as i am a complete beginner with Corvid.
