This guide is the beginning of the documentation with the built-in Notes for the database. Will help you gain a better understanding of how the template and Bubble works.
Starting with the Template
Once you have bought or added a template to your account, you will see a dropdown in the New Application popup that lets you pick a template as the basis for the new application.
Note: this can only be done when you create a new app.
After you’ve selected a template you bought, complete the other fields with the necessary data (i.e: Name of the new app, What kind of application you are building, etc) and press Create a new app.
Tip: A template isn’t a theme for your app, but a pre-built set of elements and workflows. You can modify the template as you would modify another app.
Wait for Bubble to load the application with all the data.
After the application has loaded, you’ll see the Bubble Assistant on the left side for New Application. You can close it or follow the assistant steps to adjust different settings. Now you’re ready to go and dive into the Bubble no-code development toolset.
Congrats: You have successfully created a Bubble app based on your template. Now, you can proceed with the setups.
Payments
This template uses Bubble’s Stripe plugin for payments. Please follow the Stripe payments instructions below to configure.
Payments: See the documentation on how to set Stripe Payments in Bubble App.
Note: You will be allowed to access your dashboard once you have successfully verified your email address and activated your account.
Note: By default, the Zoomio template comes with paid subscription functionality.
The application allows you to choose the desired plan: Free Trial, Starter, Growth:
- Free Trial Plan - Allows access to the application for 7 days from the date of selecting the plan and includes 2 video sessions.
- Starter Plan - Includes 5 video sessions and the monthly cost is $ 10 for a month.
- Growth Plan - Includes 15 video sessions and the monthly cost is $ 29 for a month.
If you decide to use the default subscription model that is available in the template, please proceed with the following steps:
- Go to your Stripe dashboard ->
your account name> Products tab.
Now, it is required to create 2 different Products that will be your 2 subscription models: Starter, Growth (the order doesn’t matter). The Free Trial plan is the default one and doesn’t require registration.
You can later add additional plans for the same product (e.g. monthly and yearly plans for VIP subscription).
Tip: More on Stripe subscriptions: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/overview
When creating a Pricing plan, you can add a name and set the following fields this way:
So you need to have two different subscription plans with their own pricing.
Go back to the
room page, locate the 2 workflow events responsible for creating the subscription models, and select the plan that corresponds to the subscription:
If the subscription plans come with more than 10 USD and 29 USD prices, please do not forget to change the prices indicated in the application accordingly.
Tip: Genuine card information cannot be used in test mode. Instead, use test Stripe card credentials.
Jitsi Video Calling plugins
For video chat, the template has integrated 2 of our Jitsi plugins:
- Video Meet - Jitsi Plugin - free plugin (due to demo purpose, the meeting time is limited to 5 minutes only). No additional setup is required.
- Jitsi 8x8 Video Calling + JWT Token - paid plugin (no time limit for meeting).
If you decide to keep and use the Jitsi 8x8 Video Calling + JWT Token (paid plugin), please follow these steps:
- Subscribe or purchase it within the application's Bubble Editor, in the plugin’s tab.
- Access the
roompage and select the following workflow:
- replace the default values within the “
privateKey”, “appid” and “kid” fields with your values.
To do that, you must generate an API Key in your Jitsi Dashboard.
Once the API Key is generated, make sure to download the secret key. You can open the file using a program like TextEdit.
Make sure to add "\n" to the end of the heading, so directly after -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- and also add another "\n" before the closing line, so directly before -----END SECRET KEY----- .
Add "\n" without any spaces and quotation marks.
You will have to copy the API KEY ID for this API Key and paste it into the field called "kid".
In case you would like to use other platforms for the video meet feature, you can replace the default plugins with any other, by removing the mentioned ones.
Remove Demo Login
This template comes with demo accounts and demo buttons for testing purposes, which do not require a full sign-up process in order to test the platform features. Feel free to delete these login options in your app.
Tip: Please note that deleting the demo buttons will delete the button workflows as well. Removing these demo options doesn’t affect any other aspect of the template.
In order to delete demo items, delete “Demo Login” button from the
login page:
Remove Banner
This template comes with a promotional banner above the Header element. Feel free to remove it from your app.
Banner: See the instructions on how to remove the Rapid Dev Banner in your template.
