Jamie here!

As July wraps up, let’s take a moment to recognize your hard work and progress. From tackling challenging projects to building powerful apps, your efforts are shaping incredible things. Here’s an advanced tip to keep your skills sharp and your apps smarter!

Advanced Tip: Custom Dashboards with Conditional Widgets

Empower your users by creating dynamic dashboards that adapt based on user roles or preferences. This advanced technique personalizes the experience and keeps interfaces clean.

How To Do It:

1. Build the Widgets: Create individual apps (charts, grids, forms) for each widget you want on the dashboard.
2. Set Conditional Display Rules: Use the sc_btn_display() macro or session variables to control which widgets appear. Example:

if ([usr_role] == 'admin') { sc_btn_display('widget_admin', 'on'); } else { sc_btn_display('widget_user', 'on'); }

1. Integrate Widgets into Dashboard: Use the Dashboard app to arrange the widgets and link them dynamically.
2. Test for All Scenarios: Ensure that each role or condition displays the appropriate widgets seamlessly.

Pro Tip:

Add a settings option to let users customize their dashboard layout or choose which widgets they want to see. Personalization boosts engagement!

Take It Further:

Incorporate real-time updates using AJAX and refresh intervals to keep your dashboards current without requiring page reloads.
