How to create a step-by-step wizard in Glide?

Step 1: Set Up Your Glide App

  • Head over to Glide and either sign in or create a new account.
  • Click "Create App" and decide if you want to start from a Google Sheet, an Excel file, or a template.
  • Just follow the prompts to get your app going and make sure your data is organized nicely.

Step 2: Create Tabs for Each Step

  • On the left sidebar, find and click "Tabs".
  • Hit the "+ New Tab" button for each step you want in your wizard (like Step 1, Step 2, Step 3, etc.).
  • Name each tab to match the step it represents.

Step 3: Design the Layout for Each Tab

  • Click on each tab to open its layout settings.
  • Use the components available (like text, image, form, button) to design the content for that step.
  • Make sure to add clear instructions or content relevant to each step of your wizard.

Step 4: Add "Next" and "Back" Buttons

  • For navigation, add buttons labeled "Next" and "Back" at the bottom of each step.
  • Set up the "Next" button to link to the next step tab.
  • Set up the "Back" button to link to the previous step tab.
  • If you want, customize the buttons' look for a better user experience.

Step 5: Implement Conditional Visibility (Optional)

  • If you want to show or hide components based on user input, click on the component.
  • Go to the "Features" tab and set conditions under "Visibility" to show or hide the component.
  • Use these conditions to fine-tune the user journey based on their interactions.

Step 6: Test Your Wizard

  • Use the Preview button at the top right to test the step-by-step wizard.
  • Make sure all navigation buttons work correctly and all components show up as they should.
  • Make adjustments as needed based on your testing.

Step 7: Publish and Share

  • Once you're happy with your wizard, click "Publish App".
  • Follow the prompts to get a shareable link or QR code.
  • Share the link or QR code with your audience so they can use your step-by-step wizard.

By following these steps, you can create a comprehensive and user-friendly step-by-step wizard in Glide. Adjust as needed to fit your specific project needs.
