I have a company planner in airtable that I want to print in a year view colour coded with the project name printed.  How do I do that?  It doesn't have a year view option so I added the calendar to my google calendar but year view in that doesn't work either!  What do other people do??  

Hello All, I have a question about creating a custom synced calendar for each user.  I own an RV van rental management company and am trying to figure out how to have a unique calendar link for each customer that we can sync up with our user interface.  Currently, I am creating a new view for every user, but I don't see this as a scalable option as we expand. I would like a unique calendar showing each user's reservations created automatically rather than manually creating it every time we onboard a user.  I hope this makes sense.  I also don't want hundreds of views in airtable so each user can have a unique calendar.  I am using stacker as my user interface and would also like to figure out how to embed the calendar there so customers don't have to rely on a link.

Hello, I recently added a field to my calendar view and it appears at the top of each new entry rather than at the bottom where I would like it. Is there a way to change this order?

I have a “Links” table. The primary field is a friendly name and the second column is a URL. When I view this record from a linked table, the URL is the 3rd entry down. There is another field above it. How can I reorder these? And here is the column order in the links table: Name | URL | Namespace | Type | Server | Participants

I have two tables: one called companies and one called candidates.  I'm creating a form for candidates to fill out which will add them to the candidate table.  One of the questions on the form is "where do you live?".  I want to match them with companies that are in their same city, so I want the company locations I have in my companies table to be the options for the "where do you live" list in the candidate form.  Is there a way to sync these up?  I tried linking the record, but I get a message saying "this is read only and won't appear on the form".  Ideally I want new locations to be automatically added to the candidate form when I add a new company with a new location.

Say I have a table in which each record has a Single Line Text "Notes" field with content like this:MondayGood FridayTuesdayTaco TuesdayGood FridayTuesdayI want to find all records where the Notes have exact matches, in this case for Good Friday and Tuesday, and display them together.I figured I'd have to add a field to check for uniqueness somehow and then filter for non-unique records, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Hi,Is anyone else experiencing views not currently loading within their database?We have multiple users reporting seeing a error message "Loading this view...This view may be loading slowly due to a large number of records or fields". Some users are experiencing load times of 20 minutes. Looking into the account the record and storage limits are no where near capacity.The offices internet speed is fast and all other web based platforms are working. Any insight here would be appreciated.

For the last 2 to 3 days, we have found Airtable almost unusable. Very slow and advanced functions won’t load at all. Any solutions appreciated

Very simple, but I couldn’t seem to find it anywhere. I have a “date contacted” date field, and a “follow up” date field. I want the “follow up” date field to automatically populate a date that is one week out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I created a "lookup from another field" field, and set it up to pull 4 other fields from another table. It pulls the first field just fine, but then does NOT pull the other 3 for no apparent reason and it's driving me crazy haha. The field I'm using to test DOES have values in those 3 fields to pull, so that's not why. I don't get it. 

Hi Airtable Community! I have a process that requires specific people to provide updates on the 15th of every month. I’m looking for an easy way to create a calendar that will trigger these emails automatically on the 15th of the month at 8 a.m. I’ve had some success with creating a calendar table and developing a formula that flips a field (when criteria met) to a new view that triggers email but the process is a little clunky and I haven’t been able to figure out how to send it at a certain time of day. Any advice/help is greatly appreciated! Thank you.

I cannot figure out how to get a Vega-Lite chart to sort the Issuers in the y axis by the max APR value.

Hi all - I’ve built a quick database to better understand who I’m following and who’s following me on Twitter in Airtable using syncs from Integromat + Zapier. Works great, syncs info to column headers for things like bio, # of followers, locatiton, title, etc. All things that help me understand who I’m connected with and can easily search through the database. My question is if I can turn this into a SaaS of sorts where a new user can signup, authenticate their Twitter account, and have a new base spun up specifically for their Twitter account (including followers/following). Is this feasible or goes beyond the strengths of Airtable and require custom code solution? Thanks for your help! Patrick

Hi, friends! I’m looking for suggestions on the best method to combine multiple attachments within a record. Essentially I need a button/formula/automation for each row in my table to act as Adobe’s “Combine Files” function in Acrobat. I use miniExtensions and they have an app to combine multiple attachment field into one, but they are still separate files whereas I need to merge them all into one. Is there an Airtable or Integromat function that can perform this task? Thanks in advance!

How do I change the name of an interface with the new layout? Can’t figure out how to edit.

I am creating an application using an AirTable form. We are asking applicants to rank their availability preference for five single select choices. Since there is no ranked choice voting option available on AirTable currently, my workaround is to create five single select fields (questions in the form) with the same answers in each drop down. It's a little cumbersome.The functionality I'd like is, for each descending selection, the choice(s) made previously to be removed from the list (Ex: If Monday at 5pm was the #1 choice, then I'd like that choice to be removed from the 2nd choice question and so on). This would make it more user-friendly and avoid duplicate days/times being selected.I've a feeling this isn't possible quite yet but, if anyone has a workaround or better option for ranked choice voting in AirTable forms, please let me know. Thanks!

I’d like to expand my base that I use to manage my orders for meal kits. I have a table that calculates packaging cost by entering the case price, then units per case, then it gives the cost per unit. I’d like to add this cost to the different meal kit entries which are on another table. The way that I WANT to do it is to use the “link to another record” field, then use the “lookup” field to pull the cost per unit, then use a “formula” field to sum these together. The problem is that I can only select each entry once in the “link to another record” field. So if I use, let’s say, 3 black plastic containers, I can’t calculate it properly. I guess I could have multiple entries for eack packaging item, but that seems like a weird workaround. Is there a function that might do what I want? I’ve added “food costing” base templates, but each of those uses a separate entry for each ingredient amount (i.e. one cup of flour and two cups of flour are separate records) which is frankly a real

Our main People table is linked to a Work History table that shows the date and position of each shift worked. I want a field in the People table to show only the most recent date that a person worked. Lookup fields do that, of course, but return all of the shift records for each person. TIA!UPDATE: The date of the shift worked is stored as text.

All of the charts on my interfaces are suddenly showing a legend (despite the legend setting still being set to 'hidden')For the amount of categies in the data I have a legend does not work at all (my users now see an incomplete list of categories which is misleading and a smaller and harder to read chart).Has anyone else expereinced this?Help! 🙂
