Hi @jxbclothes69gc7 - thanks for being an active contributor to this community. It’s possible that you’re not familiar with online communities (and there’s nothing wrong with that!) but it’s worth pointing out that every group or community - both online and offline - has its own guidelines and rules.

In the Thunkable Community you can be find these in the #communityguidelines. Please pay careful attention to them.

In particular, please take a few minutes to read this post, which was written so that you can everyone can have the best possible experience here.

How to ask Great Questions

Here are a few things to consider before you create a new topic in the forum. Before you Ask Do a search of the forum to see if your question has already been asked. Check the Thunkable Documentation to see if there’s an example you can use. Have you watched the beginner tutorial videos on YouTube? Make sure you have a really descriptive topic title for your post. Creating A Helpful Topic Title Avoid using titles like, “my app is broken” or “HELP ME!!1!”, instead try to briefly describe the …

In particular, please be careful when creating your Topic title. For example, your original title does little to communicate the nature of your question to your fellow community members:

Since this is bit difficult i would like if thunker expert could help me

Since you have a question about creating individual user profiles, I have updated your title to reflect the nature of your question.

In relation to your question about gathering user data, I would advise that you start by looking at this sign in example, study it carefully, and when you have fully understood it, start by adding one extra field at a time.

Part 1: Firebase This post will walk you through creating a Firebase project, adding Email Authentication to the project, and adding your project to a Thunkable project. You can also follow these steps to add a Firebase DB to your Thunkable project - just don’t follow the steps for adding email authentic…

For example, can you store the users City and then display it in their profile? Then add in the job title and so on, taking one small step at a time.

App development is incremental and iterative. It will require lots of patience and perseverance, and of you try to add in too many features too quickly it will cause headaches and hardship.

Best of luck with it.
