Adding and removing items from the list picker


When I open the text I added to the list item, I want it to edit it again and save it under the tag again. But when I select the item from the list and edit it, it changes the content but adds a second item to the list. How can I solve this problem?

Note : Make it as easy as possible for those who are helping . Especially:
→ Write in English and
→ use English blocks (set the language in the Designer - temporarily - in English).

OK. I translated all of them into English. Can you help now?


blocks (4)

from your blocks,

if article is in the list 
then display a message
else save article in TinyDB and add it to the list

which means, the if statement does not work for you?
use Do it to debug your blocks, see also tip 4 here App Inventor: How to Learn | Pura Vida Apps
see also Live Development, Testing, and Debugging Tools

also shouldn’t it be like this?

save article in TinyDB 
if article is not already in the list 
then add it to the list

**"save article in TinyDB **
**if article is not already in the list **
then add it to the list"

YES IT HAS TO BE. BUT I COULD NOT.

save article to TinyDB
If the article is not already listed
then add it to the list. Update the list if available.

I want it to be as I wrote above.

like this

additionally you might want to check, if the article is not empty like this

if article is not empty
then save article to TinyDB
     If the article is not already listed
     then add it to the list. 
else display a warning
