You totally over delivered in this tutorial...you answered questions I didn't even know I had! You also stimulated a new one. Under the toggles in the menu are embedded databases. I noticed that they were available without leaving the page. How did you do that?
Hi Janiele, thanks for the kind words, glad it got you thinking! So, this was built using a tool we developed called Flotion, and it's made of up these template button components. Basically, each of the buttons has a linked view of a pre-configured database view inside it--so all you need to do is click the '+ Projects' or '+ Tasks Board' and it will create a fresh linked view of that database, with the formatting all ready to go! You'll need to store your source database elsewhere--we use a 'Map' page to host all the source databases, then just create linked views of those DBs within the template buttons you see in the menu. Have a go at making a couple of your own--for some more help with template buttons can also check out this tutorial: th-cam.com/video/vmgxkk2iPSY/w-d-xo.html Best, Gerrard
