Hey, fellow Bubblers! JJ here, your navigator through the fascinating world of Bubble. Today, we're diving into a powerful technique that I use to build dynamic and role-based navigational menus within Bubble. Get ready to wield the magic of user role permissions without breaking a sweat. Let's set sail!
0:00 - Introduction: Unleashing Dynamic Menus
Imagine having a navigational menu that dynamically adapts to user roles and permissions. No more manual tweaks or complex changes. With this approach, your navigational menus become not just functional but also intuitive, tailored to each user's role. Get ready to harness the power of dynamic menus!
0:19 - The Framework: Dynamic Repeating Groups
Step into the heart of our approach: the dynamic repeating group. Instead of a static menu, we leverage a repeating group that's powered by the current user's pages. How does this work? Let's break it down.
0:43 - The Role's Roadmap: Option Sets Unveiled
Meet our secret weapon: the Option Sets. These hold a list of all available navigational options. When a user signs up, their assigned pages are added to this list. Think of it as a roadmap of permissions tailored to user roles.

Here's where the magic happens. As users sign up or log in, their designated pages populate the navigational repeating group. The result? A dynamic menu that reflects each user's unique role and permissions. It's like having a personalized roadmap for each user.

But there's more. Need to fine-tune permissions? Say, restricting access to certain pages for specific roles? No problem. Simply manipulate the user's assigned pages through Option Sets. This way, even lower-level roles can access higher-level permission pages, all within your dynamic menu.
1:50 - Conclusion: Dynamic Menus, Empowering Navigation
There you have it – the dynamic menu approach demystified. By combining repeating groups, Option Sets, and the magic of user roles, you've unlocked a whole new level of navigational sophistication. Say goodbye to static menus and hello to personalized, role-based navigation.
