Unorthodox post - when your brain just won't "Quickbase"
Hey all! This is going to be a vulnerable post and I deliberated whether I'd post, but this has always been an incredibly supportive community. I am going through a challenging time in life having lost my mom a couple of months ago, and one of the most surprising ways this has affected me is -- my brain is just "off" for Quickbase. I'd been asked to head up a project cleaning up a former app developer's less-than-ideal-state work, which is something I very much would like to do; but I'm literally logging in daily and looking at my screen, with Quickbase being a small percentage of what I'm generally responsible for day-over-day, and I am just unable to get started. Has anyone experienced this? Any tips for snapping yourself back into shape? As a musician outside of work as well, I realize Quickbase is very much also a creative space, and when I think about whether you could just command yourself to write a song on demand, it feels like a similar mental lock-out where you don't have a lot of control over when your creative energy is going to come back. Would love any feedback and apologies for the sort of odd post. I've been sitting with this project for about 6 weeks now and it's going exactly no where. I either need to take a full pause from the project, or figure out how to get my head in this game.2likes6Commentsgantt chart adding a field to tasks
We are looking to use the gantt chart plug in but have the need to add a field to the tasks. We have added the field but can't add that that new field as a column in the gantt chart view. Any thoughts how to connect this field to this plugin view? Thanks0likes0CommentsQuickbase Related Web Sites Impacted by Microsoft Azure Outage

Is it possible to use AI to create a field "Category" based on another text field "Description." The field description is of-course is verbose and all over the place. But technically LLM should be able to create a succinct 'Category' field for me by parsing the actual topic of discussion captured in the description field. Is this possible within Quickbase?0likes1CommentChanging from steps to tabs based on roll
I have a form where a requester enters the information in a form using steps. After submission an approver will approve the request in the same form (pipelines are used to push the approval info to the approval table). I don't want the approvers to see the steps when they edit the form. Is there a way to changed the view from steps to tabs in edit mode based on role?0likes2CommentsDocument Template Spacing
Hello, I am looking for any advice/help on QuickBase's Document Template issues I have been experiencing. I have a word template that I have uploaded that is a single page, however it keeps spanning multiple pages when I uploaded. Has anyone been able to adjust the spacing in Document Templates? I can't find any way to do it, it seems to default to a double space and I want single spaces. Has anyone been able to find a way to keep their documents templates to just a single page easily? Thanks0likes0Commentschange navigation button so it opens the new location in edit mode
My app has a button that redirects to a documents table, but I need that to be opened in edit mode. If I use the button, it automatically switches back to view mode. If I choose edit mode from the documents table it refreshes me to the top of the form. There is a checkbox I want people to use next to the documents table, but the only way they can get it to work is if they tab over 10 tabs to the documents table - making the button that takes them there immediately useless if they need to use the checkbox. The button uses a formula to make it work: "https://thefamilyplace.quickbase.com/nav/app/buf7b3sig/table/buf7b5kxp/action/dr?rid="& URLEncode( [Record ID#])&"&rl=dvb&page=21" how do I adjust this so it opens in edit mode?
