How to create a personalized user dashboard in Adalo?

Step 1: Create a Database Collection for Users

Open your Adalo app.
Head over to the "Database" tab in the sidebar.
Click "Add Collection" to start a new collection.
Name it "Users" and add properties like "Name," "Email," "Profile Picture," "Bio," and any other user details you need.

Step 2: Set Up User Authentication

Go to the "Add Component" section by clicking the plus icon.
Look for "Signup" and "Login" screens and add them to your app.
Link these screens to the "Users" collection for registration and login.
Configure actions so users are directed to their personalized dashboard after they log in.

Step 3: Design the Dashboard Screen

Create a new screen by clicking the "Screens" tab and then "Add Screen."
Choose a blank screen or a pre-designed template.
Name this screen "User Dashboard."

Step 4: Display User Information

On the "User Dashboard" screen, add components like "Text," "Image," and any other relevant components to show user-specific data.
To bind these components to the logged-in user’s info, click on each component and set its content to database properties from the "Logged In User" collection.
- For example, set the "Text" component to display "Logged In User -> Name."
- Set the "Image" component to display "Logged In User -> Profile Picture."

Step 5: Add Personalized Features

Add forms or buttons that let users update their bio, upload a new profile picture, or view their interactions.
Make sure these components are linked to the "Users" collection, so any changes reflect in their database records.

Step 6: Configure Dashboard Navigation

Set up a navigation bar or menu that lets users reach their dashboard from any part of the app.
Link the navigation elements to the "User Dashboard" screen.
Ensure proper redirection after login, so users are taken directly to their personalized dashboard.

Step 7: Test and Refine

Test the whole flow by signing up as a new user and checking if all personal information is displayed and editable on the user dashboard.
Make necessary adjustments for design improvements or functionality enhancements.
Ensure all database bindings and user-specific features work seamlessly.
