@shantanukumar847 thank you tons for the code. Very much appreciated!! Unfortunately, I guess I just don’t know Jscript well enough to make it work. I tried to follow your great directions in the code, but I tried the following and I didn’t see any results. As instructed, i disconnected just the first name field to see if I could notice results, but to no avail.
export function dataset1_ready() { //allow the dataset to be loaded
$w(“#repeater1”).onItemReady( ($item, itemData, index) => {
$w(“#repeater1”).forEachItem( () => { //loop the function
var string = itemData.firstName; //description is the field name in the database
var length = 5; //total amount of words you want to display onscreen
var trimmedString = string.substring(5, length);
$item(“#firstName”).text = String(trimmedString) + ‘…’;
});
});
}
Any advice for what I am still missing??
Can you advise a good online resource to learn Jscript?
