Link collection data to if, then and else functions

Hello all, i’m looking for some serious assistance to develop the next stage of my site.

  1. I have a members page which has a default collection - which is good
  2. I have a separate collection for let’s say recipes, which is also good

the new problem in two parts
Part A
3. i would like the user to be able to bypass a lot of form filling if a previous recipe has been entered i.e. a full set of data of available in point 2.

  1. i have a drop down menu to identify a list of family recipes
  2. if a previous recipe is selected by the user i would like the recipe name to be displayed below this to confirm we are talking about the same recipe. For this i have added a text box that linked to the collection field.

So Question 1.
How do i link a recipe family name to the recipe name?

Part B
6. if the name of the recipe is correct i have another drop down below this that says true or false, well yes or no.
7. If the user selects yes, then the user should go to a review page that displays most of the recipe data that has already been entered.

Question 2.
Is this possible and can someone please talk me through the steps. I have learnt a lot by doing this myself so i would love to see this through to completion also.
Thanks in advance
Adam

Hi,

As for part A:

  • You can collect the user’s id or email when they submit the recipe, and each time someone enters the site to submit a new recite, query database with certain receipts to check if the user has submitted any. If no, then direct to first submission, if no to the other form or page.

  • To link receipt family to receipt name you can use reference fields .
    Part B:

  • To direct your user’s to a certain page in the dropdown selection, you can use wix-location API .

  • You can hire a Wix Partner through Wix Arena to help you create such functionality. Click here to learn how to choose a Wix Partner.
