  1. Create an "On Open Trigger" and "On Close"

    There are currently 3 trigger types on a table (Insert, Update, Delete) - I was thinking of potentially having two more: an "On Open" and "On Close" trigger - possibly best used when you open a datapage form instead of a table, where you want it to go and get values or make a calculation on the fly and load them into the page. At present the datapage is only populated by the table you have connected to the page, but with the on Open Trigger I could imagine being able to select from other tables (ie: Select the relevant…

  2. Allow github markdown in text area fields

    I often hold notes in github markdown flavoured text. When copying these notes into a caspio application i either have to re-edit them or lose the formatting.

    It would be really helpful if a long text box could be indicated as having markdown text inside it rather than plain text, which would then be rendered when the box is displayed as a display only field.

  3. Setting a default value on a regular dropdown field (not cascade dropdown)

    Currently the datapage can show the first/last item in a dropdown list (depending on the sort order). However, it does not allow for setting a specific item as a default value on the dropdown field. The selected default item can be any element in the dropdown.

  4. Email from should be dynamic

    It would be awesome if we could set the From field in an email notification or acknowledgement to a dynamic data type based on the user’s authentication field.

  5. Ability to indicate a page break for printing

    We do sometimes print our pages. But there is no way to control where page breaks occur. Could you add a simple feature, or provide a simple way with code, to indicate where a page break should be for printing from the browser?

  6. Allow for stacked columns in a combined chart

    I need to be able to have stacked columns (showing actual activity) along with a line (showing the goal). Is this something you can add? Sample attached.

  7. Being able to add additional Containers to forms/details pages

    Right now, it is difficult to get information outside of the main container. For instance, if I wanted to put a section to the right side of the search form, I would have to do so by adding additional columns or using the "continue on same line" checkbox. This creates whitespace issues and usually doesn't look good.

    Being able to add another section, outside of the borders for the original form, would expand the customization of Caspio apps.

  8. Enable Destination Options on Datapages with no details page

    Currently, when creating a Datapage type Reports / Tabular used for updating records unless the details page is enabled "Destination Options" isn't available on the "Destination and Messaging Options" section of the setup wizard. It would be useful to have this enabled when there is no details page too, so that the we can have the option to open another page on update and pass parameters to it too.

  13. On datapage, 'Configure the filtering criteria for each selected field', add option "In" to the Comparison Type dropdown.

    Adding the "In" option will allow for searching data that match the "OR" condition. This will be very useful for text search.

  14. Ability to use Calculated Fields in a Chart Datapage

    I would like to use a calculated value as the basis for a Chart Datapage. The only current option is to use a calculated field in my table and that could hurt performance. The other option is to somehow suppress the report in a report/chart datapage. Neither of those options is viable at present. Ideally the calculations would be in a Datapage. I don't want to risk performance on my site.

  15. Add the option to count words, rather than characters, in a text area.

    I have users that want to be able to count the number of words in a text area. Having the option to choose characters or words for the count would be helpful.

  16. Allow Cascading elements with less than or equal to & greater than & equal to results functionality

    Please add functionality for cascading elements to filter cascade results using Less than & Equal to or Greater than & Equal to comparison types. Currently cascade results filter only using Equal to comparison type.

  17. I am having a serious problem with something basic that Caspio does not yet include and I find in many services like Google Doc forms

    I am having a serious problem with something basic that Caspio does not yet include and I find in many services like Google Doc forms.

    I have a form in Caspio with some Radio Buttons fields, but unlike Google Docs I do not have the option for the user to enter a different value from the ones suggested, I think this is a basic thing in every form and I do not know why Caspio does not include this option.

  18. Create a new datapage for logon forms. A user needs to be able to enter their ID and password, then Caspio sends them to a URL based on data

    Almost every web site has a logon screen where a user inputs their logon ID and password. Caspio needs a new type of DataPage to easily create it.

    The program then needs to be able to direct the user to the correct web page after looking up if they are an admin, manager, associate, and other criteria. The existing technology of views and authentification could be the building block.

    I was surprised when your Chat help said I needed to build this myself with HTML code.

  19. Add ability to designate which groupings the aggregate fields should total rather than just first or all.

    We currently have the option to show the aggregate totals on the first group or all groups. I have a need to exclude the totals from the first two groups on my report and just show it on the last group. The totals are wrong on the first two groups because the calculation is MAX(field) which works at the lowest level perfectly, but not higher. The request is to have a list of the fields that are grouped on the report and checkboxes to indicate which groups the aggregate should appear.

  20. Provide Users with a standard option for working with List-String data elements.

    In my case, I have designed a table with one of the fields defined as a List-String element. The List-String element is filled with Work Codes from production. A manager is provided a datapage where they can set to TRUE specific workcodes that an individual employee is certified to complete. In another datapage, I wish to fill a dropdown box with the names of those employees that are certified to complete TaskA.
