Hi, I’m building a community with 100s of people. I would like to offer them the option to find each other via a gallery but I’d like that to be only accessible by the community members. All of them are now in the same contacts table with email and other information. With a portal I can create a login option, but than it’s impossible to select the Contacts table as the content. And with a gallery view of the contacts database I don’t see an option to login. Any ideas?
Hi there! Thank you for your message.
This should be possible by linking the contacts table to itself (using a linked record field) and then enabling “show all records” in the portal’s view for that table! This way any user would be able to see all records from that table. You would just need to ensure that they can’t change each other’s records by setting all fields to read-only! Otherwise things may get chaotic! 
Here’s how you find this setting (once you’ve added the Contacts table to your portal):
- Click on the Contacts table
- Under Views, select View 1
- You’ll then see the settings below:
Please let me know if you need any further assistance with this. I’d be happy to help!
Brillant, thnx! it worked
