class='Vibrant Success' in a different colour to green!
HI, I'm using the 'Vibrant Success' button in my text formula fields (as per the Magic Buttons Sample App), and absolutely love them. However, I'd really like to use a different colour in some instances for contrast. For example, the dark blue with white text 'submit a question' button on this forum would go down a treat! Can this be done without resorting to image onload techniques? David ---- Example of the kind of formula text field I'm talking about from the 'Magic Buttons' app. If([Checkbox] = false, "<a class='Vibrant Success' href='" & Dbid() & "?a=API_EditRecord&rid=" & [Record ID#] & "&apptoken=d9eascudwjxs2sesxkjccwgtq9r&_fid_101=1&rdr=" & URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=dr&rid=" & [Record ID#]) & "'>4B. Check a checkbox then display record</a>", "<a class='Vibrant Success' href='" & Dbid() & "?a=API_EditRecord&rid=" & [Record ID#] & "&apptoken=d9eascudwjxs2sesxkjccwgtq9r&_fid_101=0&rdr=" & URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=dr&rid=" & [Record ID#]) & "'>4B. Uncheck a checkbox then display record</a>" ) PS Anyone not sure what I'm talking about here - search in the App Exchange for 'Magic Buttons'
Is there a way to search multiple records and open multiple records with one button/click?
Hi there, I am wondering is there a way to search multiple records and open multiple records windows with one button/click? Thank you. I am asking this because a colleague needs to update some fields of multiple records, could be dozens or hundreds. Those records could be randomly picked, hard to cover all of them by creating a report by single or multiple field properties. 1. He wants a search box can paste all the record names one time and get a list of these records. 2. Even there was a report for him and he knew how to use Grid Edit, he still wants to open all records windows at one click. Is it something possible? without advanced API and developer function.

Filter parent records within child record grid edit based on other parent selection
Hi all, I've implemented solutions similar to this in the past (filtering child records based on grid edit overrides & forms, etc), but I'm really struggling to figure this one out. Here's the scenario: I've got a table "jobs", which is a child table of "venues". On the Jobs form, I need users to be able to select an on-site contact from a list filtered based on their selection of a grandparent "venue" record. Currently, I've got a table "contacts" which is a child of "venues". I've created an intermediary relationship table "on-site contacts" which is a child of both "jobs" and of "contacts" to connect the two. I've tried adding a grid-edit child record report of "on-site contacts" to the jobs form, and attempted to filter it so that it only shows records in which "contact-related venue" is equal to "job-related venue", but with the grid edit report, job-related venue does not populate until the form is saved and the child record is officially created. Does anyone have a solution to accomplish something similar? I suppose I could flip the relationship and try and make on-site contact a parent of jobs, but I'd like for users to be able to add multiple contacts as needed.

I have a file attachment field and have uploaded a MS Word doc. I want to be able to search that Word doc for keywords. If I understand it correctly, that is possible in QB. I have done the step of going into the advanced settings of the table to click on "Index file attachments for use in searches and report filters" as per the instructions. But it doesn't seem to be working when Ido an advanced search and look in "some file attachment" for a keyword. Is it possible to search in file attachments as I outline above? or am I missing something? Jeff ------------------------------ Jeff Elliott ------------------------------Search Bar help
Hello all! I have a report that I want used in a search bar on my dashboard. For this case, it is a list of resources and one of the columns is tags/key words. I want this field to be searched for in the search, so that it will pull up records with that tag. However, I don't want to the tag field to be shown in the report that comes up after the search. Any ideas? ------------------------------ Annalise Sansouci ------------------------------

Hello, I have a search widget on my dashboard & search columns set up, which is all fine. The results show unhelpful fields; I want to choose which fields are shown in the search results. Is there any way to customize which columns the results show?

Hi, I'm back at this Quickbase still in the hopes of convincing my organization we should go with this. Now I have a minor annoyance that seems like it should really be fixable but I'm not sure. I really want my users to view the Location table and from the appropriate record, click View Clients, then search for a Client, and if not present, add that Client (duplicates may cause many problems!). When the user clicks "View Clients..." this produces a temporary report, where the "Related Location is #" On that page, if the client doesn't exist, the user will click the "+New Client" This is where the minor annoyance comes in. In the new record form for adding the client, the user now has to specify the parent record from Location even though they just left a page where the location was specified. Is there a way to automatically fill that field based on the fact the user just left a page where the related parent record was already specified? Also, for many users, there is only going to be one choice for Location anyway, which makes it also a minor annoyance to not have the field automatically populate with the only choice available. Any methods to reduce this annoyance? Thanks Dave ------------------------------ David Halter ------------------------------
Can I search for a new record from a form
I have a list of customers, with many associated pieces of information. I would like to search for the customer and view the associated information. All of this information is on one table called "customer" but eventually, I'd like to connect to other tables. When I'm done viewing this information, I'd like to search for another customer from the same form I'm viewing the information on. Current set up: I added a search to the Home page. When I search, it returns a form I've built on the table "customer" but in order to search for a new customer, I've got to return to the home page. Any navigation away from the form shows me the table view of all customers and not the form. Apologies for being very new to QB, and asking what are probably dumb questions. I've taken most of the QuickBase university courses and tried YouTube. I'm not technical but I'm determined to learn this. Please feel free to point me in the direction of resources rather than offering a solution. Your answers to other questions have already been very helpful. ------------------------------ AP ------------------------------Home Page Search Bug
Hi everyone, I'm having a bizarre issue with the home page search function, and I'm not finding any other reference to anything similar on the community. Apologies if I missed another discussion already posted about this. I have a search bar on a home page that is supposed to search and display results based on a certain report. For my admin role, this works perfectly. But for every other user, it defaults to the reporting defaults for the table and searches every single record regardless of the filters applied to the report. Has anybody else experienced this? I did also have a user test it for me on their account to verify that it isn't some strange thing that happens when I "test as user." #Apphomepages #Search #Userandgroupmanagement ------------------------------ Elena Larrabee ------------------------------
