I have a repeater on a page. It looks at a database and only shows a repeater box for the data lines where the field “vetted” is false.
I have a switch on each repeater box. When I move the switch to checked, I want to find the data line associated with that repeater box instance and set the “vetted” field to true.
But I don’t seem to be accessing the correct data line.
The switch is named “switch1”.
Code looks like this:
export function switch1_click(event, $w) {
//get the current item in the database
let items = $w( “#entriesreadwrite” ).getCurrentItem()
//get the content of the field
let vetfield = items.vetted
//If the switch is checked, set the value
//in the associated database to true, else set to false
if ($w( “#switch1” ).checked){
$w( “#entriesreadwrite” ).setFieldValue( “vetted” , true )
}
else {
$w( “#entriesreadwrite” ).setFieldValue( “vetted” , false )
}
}

I think I’m misunderstanding how getCurrentItem works. I’m assuming that when you click the switch, it finds the current repeater instance and also finds the data line that fills it.
What am I missing? Thanks for your help!
