Building Alerts in Bubble

What are Alert Elements?

• Alert elements are temporary messages that pop up, hold, and then fade out
• They are used to provide visual cues to users when something has been changed in a Bubble application
• Alerts are useful when changes are not necessarily visible to the user, providing a way to notify them of updates

Building Alerts in Bubble

• To build an alert, go to the Visual Elements field and scroll down to Alert
• Place the alert anywhere on the page, but for standard UI design, it's recommended to keep it at the top of the page
• Check the "Fixed position at the top" checkbox to ensure the alert always appears at the top
• Make sure to uncheck "Fixed width" in the Layout tab to allow the alert to expand to the full width of the page

Customizing Alerts

• To customize the alert message, go to the Text field and update the text as needed
• To change the duration of the alert, adjust the milliseconds in the Show Message in Alert Box action
• To attach a workflow to the alert, go to the Update button, right-click, and select Edit Workflow, then add the Show Message in Alert Box action

Dynamic Alert Messages

• To make the alert message dynamic based on which input value has been changed (e.g., name or password), use conditional statements
• Move the Show Message in Alert Box action to before the Update User action to access the current user's values
• Use conditional statements to differentiate between the current user's values and the updated input values
• Use the Initial Content feature in the Design tab to access the current user's values in the input fields
