I have a requirement to show/hide Elementor content based on the contents of an ACF test field. I'm using the Ultimate Addons (UAE) package to extend the Display Conditions function to include ACF fields.
If I trigger the conditions based on an ACF "selection" field, things work just fine. If I try and trigger the conditions based on the contents of a text field, nothing ever seems to trigger. I CAN use a selection, but it's going to add an extra step to a process used by someone who is allergic to friction of any sort.
Is there some sort of formatting , delimiting, or operator I need to be including with the text? I have confirmed that the text matches exactly, but with careful typing and with copying and pasting, neither works.
Is there some sort of formatting, delimiting, or an operator that I need to be applying to the text content to match?

I have a Sheet which I would like to use as a simultaneous sign up for many people for timeslots for an event. We have noticed that what can happen is users erasing each other's entries in the sheet. Ideally we would like to make it so once someones name is entered for a timeslot it cannot be removed by other users.
I've tried to use data validation to reject certain criteria, but I've only managed to get it to reject a cell changing from blank to a non-blank value. Which I achieved with the following:enter image description here. But I'd like the opposite behaviour, with some additional functionality
Changing the formula to NOT(ISBLANK(B2)) doesn't seem to put any restriction on the cell at all as hitting backspace or delete on cell seems to clear the contents without ever considering that an input to check. Changing the value never causes the cell to go blank so it doesn't seem to affect changing either. I'm really at a loss as to how to do this and any help is appreciated. I'm open to solutions which use VBA or other programming languages to get the desired result as well.
I have a column that contains multiline data and I am trying to keep only the first line visible and hide the rest so I can have a nice displayed list with minimum gap between the lines. Ideally a JSON script to customize the column formatting. I tried to keep only a certain number of characters visible, works but then again the problem is that when you open the record, the information in that multiline field is not showing but only the number of characters we limited to be displayed in the first place.
I was thinking about putting the value of the first line in a different column (single line text) and have the rest in a different column, that i can just hide. but when i hide that column, i am not able to use my power automate flow as it detects that it is not available (...) if i can get that to work then my problem is resolved.
Appreciate everyone's inpu
There is no such function to hide a part of the multiline. We can only show or hide the whole item in the column. SharePoint will display top 5 lines and hide the others as default.
Elaborating on the comment: Power Automate does not have to work with the view that the user sees in the SharePoint browser interface. You can create a new view in SharePoint and include only the columns you need for the workflow. Give the view a nice, descriptive name.
Then, in Power Automate you can use the Get Items command and under Advanced options > Limit Columns by View specify which view you want to use to return the list items. In the screenshot, I'm using a view I called wfView. This will return the columns of that view, plus some of the SharePoint default fluff.
I want to show a placeholder in a ComboBox if no values has yet been selected or the previously selected one has been removed / deselected. For single-column ComboBoxes that works like a charm using #;"My placeholder" as the Format of the ComboBox. So far so good.
The problem starts if my ComboBox has more than one column. How can you set the placeholder value for a multi-column ComboBox? More general: How can you specify the Format for a multi-column ComboBox?
Is it for example possible to color the first column green and the second one red? And if it is possible, please tell me how.
I could not find any specification on how to set the format for multiple columns. Neither on MSDN nor on support.office.com.
P.S.: I do not care if a working solution relies on VBA or if it can achieved just by entering something in the layout or design view.
Sounds like you are outgrowing what a ComboBox can easily provide in Access.
First, combo options, and then my real suggestion.
Here are your ComboBox options:
Try conditional formatting, and see if you can get the combo's text box to change color if the value is null.
You could make a UNION query that appends your placeholder record to the top of your Combo's real recordsource
You could try to get your users used to the idea of 'blank' = null, and fix it with training.
I have never seen a way to do different combo column colors in Access.
My REAL suggestion:
Ditch the combo and go with a modal dialog form that pops up for the user. This will let you format everything much more closely to what you want.
You can put textboxes on your main form to display the placeholders.
The user clicks on the textbox to open your dialog form.
im totally new when it comes to trying to make HTML code. I was wondering if its possible to make certain rows/columns in a HTML chart modifiable by random users that view the page.
And if so is it possible to make it so that once modified they click a button and it changes some other rows like a calculator does, based on what i have preset (numbers)
hopefully that makes sense...
thks
btw im using a Google site i made
You can use <input> elements for allowing people to input text, and javascript for any computation involving their contents, or for changing what's on the page.
See https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/Input and https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript for more info on each of these.
HTML tables are columns and rows of static data, not modifiable. One solution would be using javascript and do an .onClick method on each <td>. That method would convert text in to something like <input type="text" name="cell_x_y" value="original_value" /> and then another method which would handle ENTER key or leaving that text field and would submit value to server.
I have an HTML table with rows (20 rows).
Every row has a listbox of countries (about 250 countries) that are filled using a single dataset from the database.
Loading time is quick enough, but rendering time is really a mess.
Is there any way I can speed the rendering of those listboxes?
You could load it only once, and then copy the DOM element everywhere you need it...
I'm not sure if this would improve a lot since it would rely more on the user's computer, but I guess it's worth trying if it's too slow the way it is right now.
edit: here's how I'd do it. Use with caution, I haven't tested it and there is most likely tons of errors with this code, it's just to give you an idea of what I was saying.
<mylistbox id="listboxtemplate"> ... </>
<div class="thisPlaceNeedsAListbox"></div>
<div class="thisPlaceNeedsAListbox"></div>
<div class="thisPlaceNeedsAListbox"></div>
on document ready, using jquery:
jQuery(".thisPlaceNeedsAListbox").append( jQuery("#listboxtemplate").clone() )
You could try to add next select box only after user has selected previous one (using JavaScript).
I'm quite sure that you can rethink the form or the process, but I can't suggest anything specific since you haven't given enough information. For example depending on situation you could use multi-select or some fancy JavaScript widget.
EDIT based on your comment:
Then how about serving the table without selects. And if user double clicks on a country field you change the text element to select element using javascript. And once user has selected the country you can change back to text element. You can submit results back to server using Ajax (after user has selected the country) or using hidden fields a submit button. This way DOM will never contain more then 1 select element.
You can pass countries to javascript using inline JSON object/array (in script tags). To make things even more faster after user has edited the first element, just hide (css: display: none;) the first build select element and clone/move it around each time user wants to edit a row.
As you can see there are a lot of paths you can take using this approach, it all depends how much you want to optimize/work on it.
