Block List endless Problems

Hey you guys.

I checked the forms and tried many different logic scenarios and asked my BFF ChatGPT to no avail I’m having problems with what I feel should be simple.. but it’s never like that is it.

Ok so Problem: Need to make a block list. Will block logged in user from seeing blocked user in chat.

What I’ve tried: I created a new collection of blocked users linked to the blocked- author of the comment and blocker- logged in user.

Easily shows up on their blocked list, however, when I go to delete the record, a ‘ghost’ remains linked and the person cannot become visible again in chat.. I need them ‘instant’ delete/reappear in chat

I tried creating a user-to-user many-to-one relationship with “blockedusers” and that is behaving weirdly and not showing both users it says ‘untitled’.

I tried creating weird tags to filter out the blocked person and I keep getting endless menus and weird options.

With the new database collection I made (blockedusers), easy enough, instead of deleting the user I wanted to change it ie ‘remove user’ from the linked part, but it won’t let me, keeps giving me the option to either add the blocker or blocked.

I tried adding a secret user ‘recycled’ or ‘blocked’ user info like user Id and username instead of linking to the actual user to fight the ghost problem but it can’t/won’t update anything.

It’s a live chat, the list on the page is communication, not users, I have too many pages with chats I think it’d be too to complicated to have the list as users then filter down to the chat to the room but idk.

I’m lost guys, plz help. My brains starting to swim.One of my final things to fix for the iOS app review

Oh my app: The Cloud

When I’m working on the blockeduser collection, to filter the chat like author’s username is not equal to = … it won’t go to their username it keeps going logged in user → blockedusers (blocked) → blocked → infinity :face_with_spiral_eyes:
