Preview Panel Missing - Creating Dynamic Item Page

Hello,

I am following the video tutorial of How to Create a Dynamic Item Page, exactly as demo’d. However, as soon as I create the dynamic page, the preview panel is nowhere to be found. Without the panel, I cannot switch to each individual page, nor create an index.

I have developer tools enabled. What am I missing?

Thanks!

Hi David, the preview panel appears when you have more than one item in your collection.
Also, these items should have all the needed data for your dynamic page url to be valid.
For example, I created an Animals collections with a Name field. Then I created a dynamic page and set its url to be calculated according to that name field. My collection data looks like this:

880×268 14.3 KB

Note how the “Animals (Name)” field is properly showing the url each item.
If one of the names was empty, then the url couldn’t be calculated, causing this item not to appear in the preview panel.

Ahhh…I had deleted the name field when creating my URL. So it was just reading “/Animals/” as opposed to "/Animals/{Name}. Issued cleared. Thanks.
