keep up the good work!

wouldn't it be nice if we could actually design a blog's article content through the page builder?

We can then for example ad galleries quickly ...

I've got it figured out ... apparently I accidentally deleted an API function that was linked to my home page and since there's no result now, it throws back the 404 page ... I removed the action and the problem is solved.

would be nice if we could have a second (maybe hidden) preview option that refreshes the page in preview and opens it in a 'real' preview window (i.e. ....appdrag.site/preview/bicycles?id=1001761.

Now, if I want to test a page with dynamic content, I have to press the Preview button, wait until the preview is loaded. Then I go to another tab, where I have the url of this page from preview. And finally I have to press cmd-shift-R to Force Reload the page in Chrome ...

Save a sh... load of clicking

oops ... forgot that the Content-Type needs to be application/x-www-form-urlencoded ... and not application/json ...

this site is still under construction, had 0 visitors last month but 2598 pages viewed ... what's wrong with these figures or am I perhaps interpreting them wrong?

@Wassim thanks for taking your time to help met out! I'm still learning JavaScript and the promise/async was still om my todo list. Now I think it's time to dive into this. I already collected some reading material, which might be interesting to others as well ...

Hi David, thanks for your suggestion. However, I decided to no longer use numbers in any of my field names. Best regards - Dick

@Wassim I already do. Great trip. Thanks!

Create simple search through page builder. Basically an input text field with search button that calls an API function and displays the results ... preferably in the same page.

Thanks Joseph!

@Wassim Hi Wassim, I did this by adding a CSS Source Code Element. Is that the right approach? It works anyway

would be nice if it would be possible to easily push blogs to LinkedIn and to integrate their comments in AppDrags blogs (instead of Facebook)

already found it ... ctrl click on the root folder in code editor ...
and drag and drop files and folders ...

@Wassim thanks for the info and please keep me posted on Stripe checkout. Sound really interesting!

would be nice to also have fully functional project templates, for example a complete user authentication system including user database, api's, etc. ...

@jbenguira thanks for the info. I found the problem (in my code) and got it to work

@joseph-benguira Thanks! Eventually it turned out to be a problem with iCloud on my Mac. After turning the mail syncing on and off everything appeared to work just fine.

and keep up the good work !!!

Solved! I figured out the Javascript Code to load data into and configure DataTables. I'm now really getting close to having a complete CRUD system in AppDrag
