Viewing/Exporting a record and all its linked reco...

I see that if I upgrade to the Pro plan (I’m on the $10/month plan), there is something called Page Builder that will let me design and create a PDF file. I’m wondering if there is something similar that would let me design and create an HTML file from a view that could then be used as part of a web page.

Thanks!

There is also no issue with Airtable API limits because it does not use the Airtable Standard REST API. The WordPress data is only updated when the user clicks the button in the Airtable custom block.

Yep - that was completely clear to me and I think it’s a wise design choice actually.

You might take a look at this (make sure you read all the way through).

Are you referring to this section?

This code will add a little Excel button next to your HTML table and when someone clicks that button, it creates a beautiful and interactive view of table with support for sorting and filtering. You can even visualize the HTML table as graphs without leaving the page.

I couldn’t get this to work. The link to a live demo also does not contain a live demo for me. Does this technique work for you?

I just signed up for medicare this week, so I’m right there myself. Started programming on punch cards…LOL.

Ahhhhh, well there it is. Did you preserve a stack to show the viewers what that actually was? :slightly_smiling_face:

If you remember punch-cards you may also remember LapLink.

I wish I saved a stack! Yes, I remember LapLink. Along with 8" floppies.

Ha ha - me too. I have many and a few copies of LapLink as well. I created LapLink three years before the term “laptop” became a thing; it was used at NASA and a few other places as a desktop interchange app.

I remember those as well. One of my first jobs as a teen was working on a custom typesetting computer at a print house, and it used those 8" monsters to store project files. Good times!
