Topic: Changed Name is not reflected in Top Navigation

rashesh patel free asked 4 years ago


Hi,

In Top Navigation I just show the Organization name using code:


{this.state.organizationName}

When I am trying to Edit that Organization name in its Edit profile, it Edited in the database but at the same time edited name is not reflected on Top Navigation.

So what should I do for that?


Piotr Glejzer staff commented 4 years ago

Did you try use componentdidupdate/useeffect?


rashesh patel free commented 4 years ago

Hi Piotr

Can you give me some example for the same?


Piotr Glejzer staff commented 4 years ago

Yes, sure but do you have an example code to show me?

Did you try to use something like this?

componentDidUpdate(prevState){
  if(prevState.organizationName !== this.state.organizationName){
    this.setState({organizationName: this.state.organizationName})
  }
}

rashesh patel free commented 4 years ago

Hi Piotr, I used

componentDidUpdate(prevState){ if(prevState.organizationName !== this.state.organizationName){ this.setState({organizationName: this.state.organizationName}) } }

but error comes "Error: Maximum update depth exceeded. This can happen when a component repeatedly calls setState inside componentWillUpdate or componentDidUpdate. React limits the number of nested updates to prevent infinite loops."


Piotr Glejzer staff commented 4 years ago

It does mean you have an infinite loop. You have to try to resolve this with another if/else conditions.
