It's October. The spooky season! Sure, there are all the monsters and ghosts and what not, but you know what's really scary. The evitable passage of time...OOOAAAAHHHH! October marks the one-year anniversary of the Experience Builder Tips and Tricks Board. This group has grown to over 100 members and remains a supportive, positive place. Thank you to everyone who has joined and has stuck with my terrible, sometimes borderline inappropriate humor. I hope you have all found something useful here.
Since so many of you have joined up, it's likely many of you have never read the introductory post on this blog. I bring that piece up to say, this blog was never and was never intended to be a one-man show. Right now, I have two more topics in my head that I intend to get to one day and that's it. I'm out of ideas. I'm sure I'll think of more when new features come out or someone asks a interesting question, but still, I need help keeping this place going. I want to read you tips.
Experience Builder is huge. There's a lot I don't know. There are many parts of it I have never or hardly ever touched. And the number of possible configurations is literally infinite. Here are some topics that have never or have only been lightly covered on this blog, that I don't feel qualified to write about:
- 3D Data
- Indoor Data
- Time Enabled Data
- Survey123 (I'd personally love to see a post(s) about ways to make it interact with various widgets.)
- Related Features
- The analysis related widgets
- URL Parameters
If you've got something to say about these topics or any other, I want to hear it. And don't think, it needs to be some complex build either. One of my primary motivations for starting this was seeing a lot of what I call "button questions" on the Questions Board. These are questions that can be answered by just pointing out the location of some button. I don't think those questions are as common as they were a year ago and I'd like to believe, it's because they have been covered in this blog. If you know about some hidden magic button, let us know, too.
Finally a big thank you to everyone who has written something for this blog over the past year:
