Hi guys, this is probably a silly question but I think I have an excuse, I’ve not been well over the last few weeks, and yes it was the dreaded Covid! Thankfully am negative now. I have come back to things today and I cannot see or select any of my Server Connect Data Bindings.
And I must admit I am finding it exhausting just sat here looking at my screen.
I am assuming nothing drastic has changed in the last few weeks so I suspect that something is missing in my set-up. I cannot understand what or how.
Plenty of Variables and Server Connect on this example page “_report_AD_new.php”
Nothing showing when I try to insert App Connect Binding.
And yet all the items on my Route page show fine
My mind has gone blank, can anyone give me some advice or reminder?
Hi @karh, thanks for dumping some thoughts but everything is as it should be. The site works perfectly fine in a browser. The issue is just with inserting or selecting Data Bindings.
Cheers
Hi Neil,
It’s not quite clear from your screenshots what data, from what page are you trying to access on what other page.
Can you explain this more clear please?
Current set-up : SPA Pages, Windows 10, MySQL, PHP
Wappler Version : 4.2.2
Operating System : Windows 10 Pro 64bit
Server Model: PHP
Database Type: MySQL/MariaDB
The screen recording shows a php SPA page, then a Text Data Binding, then on the right showing the App Connect Expression. When clicking the Lightning Bolt you cannot find the relevant Server Connect Element in the Data Bindings. Even when you scroll down to the same routed page there are no Server Connect Components available. There are no Variables.
The php page, the expression etc are all picked at random. It happens in any page.
The page shows everything correctly in a browser, so the issue is just about selecting a data binding.
I have downloaded Wappler afresh and reinstalled with the same issue.
Still not clear to me what are you doing.
Am i right that you opened a content page (not main page?) and you don’t see server actions added on the same content page when trying to insert dynamic data on it?
I just tested this and see no issues. This is a content page of a PHP SPA website and the server action is located on it. Adding a dynamic action i can properly see the data, returned by the server action.
Morning Teodor, you are right of course, if I create a new content page and set the layout exactly as you have done, then I get the same result as you do. So that is good.
BUT if I go to any existing content page,
insert a new Paragraph,
go to insert a Data Binding,
then none of the App Structure from that Content page (1) is showing in the Data Bindings (2).
Only the App Structure from the Parent page is showing in the Data Bindings (2).
The following screenshot shows the App Structure from the Parent page. As you can see, it matches the App Structure showing in the Data Bindings above (2) from the Content page.
I don’t believe this is a bug as no-one else seems to have a similar problem. I believe it is probably unique to me. Therefore I suspect that something is not right in my set-up or maybe the initial commented text at the top of the content pages is wrong (but I cannot understand why that would be). I don’t know and that is why I am reaching out to you for help or guidance on what to look out for.
As mentioned earlier, I have not been well so not used Wappler. No-one else has touched my machine. All I have done is updated Wappler. I am still not 100% but I need to get some work done and cannot understand why this is happening.
I am referring to the part where I produce a NEW Content Page and set up a Route for it. I am getting the same problem. No App Structure from the Content page showing in the Data Bindings.
In my post above, I had set it up as a normal page and not a content page with routing.
I have done some more research (spent all day on this) and found that if I delete a Step in an API Action then it seems to fix the issues here and I can see all the Data Bindings.
Hmm I had a issue with bindings not updating till either next save of the action or disable out put from both toggle output buttons on the queries then save turn then back on save again etc
I posted this here maybe they are linked slightly
