I have set up a dynamic category page where i want to display my products in my own custom containers, i’ve linked my database to the containers with various elements in them for example, title, area, Image, bedrooms, Bathrooms and price! the page populates but every container is populating the same row of the database giving me multiples of the same product not iterating through the rows. I cannot for the life of me find a solution, is anyone here able to help me out ?
Hi Josh,
It sounds like what you’re trying to do is a repeating layout - displaying the same layout and design for multiple data items.
We’re in the process of creating a specific solution for this case, but it’s still in development and will take some time before it’s available for you to use.
In the meantime you have a few options:
-
Use galleries - sounds like this isn’t the right path for you since you want to display more information than the gallery supports
-
Use a table - if the tabular layout suits your case, this is a great solution
-
Write some JavaScript - If you’re comfortable with writing some JavaScript you could keep the elements as you already laid them out, but instead of connecting them using the connect button, write some JavaScript in your page which iterates through the dataset’s results using its getItems() function and populates the elements through their respective APIs.
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. Your answer was very helpful, I think i am gonna wrap my head round the JavaScript option ive some experience but im no master, Again thank you for your reply!
