It seems that one of my galleries is slow – do you have any suggestion for speeding it up?
If you have very high resolution images, we would recommend resizing these images for it to load faster. You can use one of our extensions to do that.
In Airtable, the records in my view are sorted by one of the fields. Can this also be done within my miniExtensions gallery? As right now my records are randomly displayed and therefore harder to work with.
You can sort records by a certain order by selecting a ‘view’ in the extension settings. Your records will then be sorted in the same way as that view.
I have created an embeddable white-label Airtable gallery for my website. I am having some problems with the embed script on my website platform (Wix) because 2 scroll bars appear (1 for the page another for the embed window).
In order to avoid having a scrolling bar issue or content being hidden/cut off, you should not be using a fixed height for the iframe. Remove any height or width values and copy the embedding code and paste it again on your website.
Is there a way to password-protect the share URL?
Yes, you can find that option in the ‘advanced’ section.
Is it possible to inherent all the applicable fields in the view records options from the respective view? (if selected) IE if I select a view “A” the fields imported on a view only level are by default all those applicable in view A. Right know we have to add the fields in even after we select the view we want visible. This would be a handy option to have.
Unfortunately, due to Airtable API limitation, it’s not possible to auto-detect the visible fields in a view vs. the hidden ones. That would be a nice feature to have though.
Is there the possibility of editing a gallery view? Specifically letting viewers check a box. Is that possible in gallery view? Or only in grid?
It is possible in both. One thing to note: The grid allows in-line editing of checkboxes in the grid itself, but with the gallery view, the user needs to click on the “edit” button, and then make the edit.
I’m looking for an example of embedding a gallery view in a WordPress site.
You can find the demo above on our own website.
I’m having some trouble with styling where all Cards are not same height. In my Airtable card gallery view, all the cards aren’t parallel. How do I make them the same size? Any hints to address this?
You can have all the cards in the gallery to have the same height by setting a fixed height for each field. You can adjust the field height by clicking on the field name in the extension settings page.
I thought I saw on a video you could add tabs to filter results?
Yes, you can have different filters in your gallery, by adding multiple ‘Airtable views’ in the extension settings.
In the gallery view embed, is there a way to make all of the cards the same height so they are even rows?
Yes, you can set a fixed height for each field. And when that’s the case, all records will be in the same size.
