How to create a user profile screen in Adalo?

Step 1: Create a New Screen

  1. Open your Adalo project.
  2. In the Adalo editor, click on the [+] icon next to Screens to add a new screen.
  3. Choose a Blank screen to have complete control over the layout.
  4. Name your screen, for example, "User Profile".

Step 2: Add Required Components

  1. From the left sidebar, drag and drop the Image component onto your screen. This will act as the user's profile picture.
  2. Drag and drop a Text component to display the user's name.
  3. Add more Text components as needed for displaying other pieces of user information, such as email, phone number, etc.

Step 3: Link User Data

  1. Click on each Text component to open its properties in the left sidebar.
  2. Under the "Magic Text" option, link the Text components to the Current User data. For example, link the first Text component to display the current user’s Name.
  3. For the Image component, link it to the Current User's Profile Image URL.

Step 4: Create Edit Profile Button

  1. Drag and drop a Button component onto your profile screen.
  2. Change the button text to "Edit Profile" under the "Properties" panel.
  3. Under the "Actions" section of the button properties, add an action to navigate to an "Edit Profile" screen where users can update their information.

Step 5: Set Up Database Collections

  1. Go to the Database section from the left sidebar.
  2. Ensure you have a Users collection with all necessary fields like Name, Email, Profile Image, etc.
  3. Add additional fields if required by clicking the [+] icon next to the collection fields.

Step 6: Link the Profile Screen

  1. Ensure the Profile screen is connected to a way a user can navigate to it, such as from a Menu or as part of an app flow.
  2. Use the "Actions" tab on other screens to add navigation actions that direct users to the Profile Screen.

Step 7: Testing

  1. Click on the Preview button at the top-right corner of the Adalo editor.
  2. Navigate through your app to the Profile screen to ensure that user information is displaying correctly.
  3. Check the functionality of the "Edit Profile" button and make sure it correctly navigates to the Edit Profile screen.
