I’ve been working with Wix for about two days, so this is probably a newbie question, but I couldn’t find anything to help in any of the other questions, so here goes nothing: I tried the simplest thing I can imagine - 1. Created a dataset. It’s empty, and I made the everything available to everyone via “custom use”. 2. Added said dataset to a page. 3. Added an “upload” button, connected to the database. 4. Added a “submit” button, also connected to above mentioned database. And yet in preview mode, the submit is not clickable! The more general context is that I want to display uploaded content in a table, and I’m planning on coding-out my own submit-button callback for various reasons (like displaying the file name and linking the row to the file-download-url, etc.). I’m sure I must be missing something simple, like mixing-up terms such as database and dataset, or maybe some permissions issue, or who-knows what… I’d be glad for any help! Thanks ---

Got it. Turns out making the dataset read&write doesn’t allow submission. The dataset has to be write-only. Doesn’t make any intuitive sense to me, but whatevs. ---
