Hello! Just started on WeWeb yesterday and loving it so far, but having an issue I can’t see to find an answer for.  
I have setup a workflow when a clicked to change a variable (easy enough).  
But when I click it changes the variable AND some unload workflows run??? where are these so I can stop it or identify what is going on?

You might check the Page → Gear icon → Trigger page workflows

Otherwise, there are also “App workflows” that you can check by going to More → Trigger app workflows

I think tho that it’s just a thing even if you might not have any workflows, i wouldn’t worry if you don’t have any workflows there. It probably happens since you probably are changing pages.

Thank you @Broberto, turns out they were linked to the index page (my main home page) so when they were clicked they were redirecting. Once I figured that out I was good to go!

Hello,

i have the same problem, that in a working workflow there starts an “page unload workflow” that redirects me to an other page (where i don`t want to go to).

I used a global workflow that can be started from the page itself or from an other page. if i start the workflow from an other page it works fine (no page unload workflow) but if i start the workflow from the page itself it happens and i will be redirected to the other page.

i have an app-workflow but it only reset some variables. and i have a page-workflow (trigger: on pageload - not on unload page…) but there is also no redirection in it (only loading some data from xano).

i have no idea from where this redirection can come…

Someone has an idea?

Thanks Stefan

Here you can se the workflow from the page itself:

Here you can see the workflow started from an other page:

I found the solution:  
on the button that starts the workflow, was added a link. after remove that, tehre starts no “on unload page workflow”.  
great!
