If you are building a Bubble app that requires a chat layout, you need to check out the new plugin called Reverse Repeating Group. Building a chat interface with Bubble can be challenging due to limitations on displaying data in a repeating group. In this article, we will explore how the Reverse Repeating Group plugin can solve this issue.
To add the plugin to your Bubble site, go to the plugin manager and search for ‘Reverse Repeating Group’. Once installed, you need to set the ID attribute for your repeating group. This attribute helps the plugin identify the elements it needs to manipulate to create a chat layout.
By using the Reverse Repeating Group plugin, you can achieve a chat layout that starts at the bottom and scrolls up, which is the expected behavior for chat interfaces. The plugin also allows you to set a maximum height for the repeating group to prevent it from overflowing the page.
Overall, the Reverse Repeating Group plugin is a powerful tool for creating chat interfaces in Bubble. It provides a simple and efficient solution to the limitations of displaying data in a repeating group.
