Am I missing something or is it currently not possible to create just a basic table? I see that lists can have multiple columns (4 max?!) but these columns cant be set to different properties of a collection.
How can I go about creating just a standard table in Adalo?
@anon78309838 You can do this. If your table has 5 columns, add 5 text components in a row. Then select them all and click Make List in the left panel.
Another leading No code platform that has been around 5+ years does really not have it yet either despite many feature requests.
Perhaps there is some technical reason for it’s absence - but I do think that if the addition of ‘headers’ can be implemented then Adalo addresses a huge pain point that said platform doesn’t offer and that their users are clamoring for…
Hi @Ben .
I need this 5+ columns list and there is no full functionality as I add 5+ text components in a row.
As I try to add dynamic text, it changes the text per column, not to the row / full list…
Maybe in the future would be great to allow more columns to the custom list…
Hi Colin and all members here,
I used AppSheet for several years and it is based on table views of the data. I am initially concerned that there isn’t a simple table construct in Adalo but I am going to create some of those tracking / delivery apps in Adalo using filtering and lists. I have a notion that they will work as well with the use of a Status data field.
Thanks for raising the topic of tables and for all the responders . Mary
@Flawless I’m working on an interface much like you’ve shown here, but I’m having trouble with the “responsiveness” of Adalo. If I make my browser window juuuuust the right width, then everything looks perfect, like yours, but then as soon as it’s made smaller or larger, all the components go wonky - it seems like Adalo just randomly picks which components expand and which don’t. It’s especially hard to keep headers lined up with their cells… Is there something I’m missing? Are you doing some certain nesting of “rectangles” to keep things right?
@tbtilton Yeah kinda. Do a screen recording and show me what you’re talking about.
@Helpingclients You’ll have to use a component like Listify by Adalomatic (can be found here: https://components.adalomatic.com/). That component can provide a csv result that you can use. You’d have to reach out to @knight for more info on how to use it for your specific use case.
