Create a profile link

Get Help
1

Hello,

I’m currently finishing up a page similar to a social media feed on my app, and I’d like to know if there’s another technique besides nested lists that I can use to do the following:

  • Create a link on the name or photo of the post’s author that takes users to their personal profile page.

    Can deep links be used to do this?
    If so, how do I do it?

Could you please help me?

Hi, yes you can. To see the photo, you need to have it in a database and use the ID number, and the same with the username… Did you see the tutorials? If not, we’ll send you the link.

Santiago,

Thank you for your reply.
Yes, I checked adalo.help, but I didn’t quite understand how to apply that to my database…
If you had a use case, that would be a huge help.

Hi @JC122,

If I understood you correctly, you need to open the user profile of the of post in a posts list? (check the 11th module in this course recorded by @pford : Build an Instagram Clone with Adalo, a No-Code App Builder) Or is it that share the profile URL outside the app and upon clicking the URL it opens up the user profile page?

Thank you and have a great day!

Hello @Dilon ,
I had already looked at this tutorial, and indeed, I have relationships of this type in my app. Thanks for the reply—it made me realize that my approach wasn’t ideal for this… I’ve revised it, and it’s all good now. Thank you very much.
