  1. Allow datapage elements configured as Display Only to be referenced in javascript like you can reference other elements.

    Sometimes a developer may want to display, and not allow edit, a piece of data from a previous datapage. This displayed datapage element may need to be referenced from javascript which I don't believe is possible now. All other configurations of elements can be referenced, even hidden elements, but now the display only element.

  2. Increase the code editor window!

    It would sure be nice to have some real estate for editing code versus the tiny little window you provide. Further, please, oh please, support and implement tabs in the editor. Using spaces to help readability of code makes for a royal pain in the backside when editing. Come on - this window is very much reminiscent of a 90s code editor tool.

  4. Auto download data from List Report

    To download data from a List Report, it now takes 3 steps: 1. Click on Download data, 2. Double-click on (XML or CVS) file, 3. Click on "Open".

    It would be nice if there was an option in the Datapage setup that enabled automatic download and opened the file. In other words, when I launch the report it opens as an Excel file.

  5. Autosave details page like Gmail does; critical feature for longer, detailed Details page

    When I type an email in Gmail or enter a contact into Gmail contats, google autosaves my entries as I go. This is a life saver when I'm typing a long email and my browser freezes.

    My users use Caspio forms (details page of search and report) to document interactions with customers. Their business requires detailed documenation. They find it very burdensome to continually "save" (or update form) to make sure their entries are "saved" to the database. Each update also reloads the page which causes annoying delays. They also often forget to "save" their entries and end up losing…

  6. Allow radio buttons to use Yes/No data types

    When I set up my table, I naturally used Yes/No for questions with yes or no answers. Someone suggested I change the data page to radio buttons instead of check boxes, as it seemed unnatural to them (and to be fair, the change seemed to make sense from UX perspective.)

    I figured the change would be trivial, but oddly enough radio buttons cannot be used on Yes/No data types. Now I'm having to backtrack and add the fields to each data page after changing the data type.

    Could we get Yes/No data types to use Yes and No radio buttons?

  7. Labeling of virtual and html block elements of datapages

    Currently virtual elements & html block elements are simply numbered in the order created, making it EXTREMELY time consuming to locate the components of your form. NEED to be able to label these myself!

    Oh yeah, if it was all WYSIWYG editing, that would be even better!!!

  8. Add Fields for TIME of Day or Hours/Minutes (HH:MM) without having to do a bunch of coding.

    Would like to be able have codes for time of day (singularly) and hours or minutes -- all as separate fields. As it is exists today, one has to use Caspio's calendar function and go through a process to separate fields and use virtual fields. Must this REALLY be so complex to configure one field?

  10. Advanced form rules and checks based on calculations of user input.

    We would like to prevent "garbage in" as much as possible by adding constraints on webforms.

    A good example would be for a Date of Birth field to only accept dates greater than 18 years ago.

    Another example would be to say field [x] must be greater than field [y].

  11. Ability to update or submit multiple records to different tables from a single form.

    Data normalization is important for flexible databases. The ability to update or submit multiple records would allow more sophisticated normalization. We need, for example, to store several types of firms in separate tables and use addresses for individuals as well as firms. Without the ability to update or submit multiple tables to different tables from a single form, we will not be able to use Caspio for our project.

  12. Prohibit an End Date to be earlier than a Start Date or display error mesage

    On our intake form, there are "Trip Start Date" and "Trip End Date" fields. It would be helpful to prohibit an End Date that is earlier than the Start Date (e.g., Start Date = 1/15/2019; End Date = 12/01/2018). Or an error message would be helpful. Currently this functionality requires custom JavaScript. Thanks!

    We had been focusing on upgrading our platform to prepare for many exciting features including this feature in future releases. Now that is done; we are ready to work on this feature and get it ready soon. Thank you for your idea.

  14. Scheduled Reports via email

    I would like to have scheduled emails for reports, so that a report can be emailed once every week/two weeks/three weeks/every month. Ideally this could be set up when creating a report within a datapage, that you could specify when the report would be emailed and to whom.

    This is a feature available in low-end cloud based databases creators like Zoho Creator all the way to high end, like Salesforce.

  15. In Datapage Elements, suggested quicker method to configure

    To reconfigure, it takes too long to scroll fields into position when reconfiguring, especially when using large tables and making multiple changes over time.
    I suggest a sequential numbered listing of all fields in the Elements from top to bottom, starting with "1", there should be a button to "GO TO Before #" one can select once the field to be moved is highlighted.

    Also Element window is too narrow when one has long field names, such as when using Source from Views.
    I suggest a drag arrow on right edge of the window to resize and widen. better use…

  17. Pass a file as parameter to a new data page

    It would be nice if we could pass a file as parameter (http://url?file=filename.txt) to another data page and assign that value to a field in the data page to save it in another table.

  18. include bulk edit records on different pages

    Can we include the possibility of bulk editing records on different pages?

    for big databases its not right that every time you select records on one page as soon as you click on the next button, all your previous selections are gone
