You need to allow implicit FTP site connections
Hello
We have a new FTP provider and I cannot make a new site because Caspio does not allow implicit FTP connections. This is really important because it prevents alot of customers from making a site connection.9 votes -
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.

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.

Allow list strings read data from another table
Allow 'list strings' in tables to read data from another table
(instead import data).In many cases the list is incomplete after some hours. Because users have entered new data.
For example:
I need a the selection of multiple products, which is continuously extended.7 votes -
Enable Forms To Expire
It would be nice to have the ability to set a form to 'expire' or become unusable after a set amount of time. This would allow us to do things such as have trial accounts and offers, prevent unwanted submissions, and give additional security to our forms.

Time stamp your messages with the TimeZone of the user
Looks like you are not respecting the timezone of the user for message timestamps. Example:
9/1/2019 6:48:15 PM Greg Checking validity of time stamp. Should be 9/1/19 12:48pm4 votes -
Allow the count of the number of times that the List - String is selected in a table
Currently you cannot count the number of times a List - String is selected in a table. Assume the List - String has 10 options and there are 5 records in the table. So if a user chooses 3 out of the 10 options in each record, you need the answer of 3 x 5 records, the COUNT would be 15.

Application Parameters In TASKS
It would be great to be able to use Application Paramters in TASKS.
For instance, we will want to generate reports on a pre-set basis (e.g. daily, weekly, etc) to be sent from a particular email that's used application-wide and to another particular email that's used application-wide. FromEmail and SendReportsToEmail would be the application parameters.
But when I try to put the application parameters into the task input fields, they won't validate. I can use them in DataPages, e.g. for password recovery and submission acknowledgements. Very frustrating to not be able to use them in tasks as well.

Show the Type of Datapage within the main App and Datapage listings view.
I am constantly having to open a datapage to see what kind of form, report, calendar, etc. that it is. Please show this information within the main App listings of the datapage properties available. This is in the donut for the "Columns Displayed" for viewing where you can show the date created, authentication name, date last updated, etc.

Create 'self-sufficient' copy of an app
At the moment when you copy 'duplicate' an app from the admin panel it creates a copy of the app and updates the table names with "1". However, the triggers are not updated. This leads to the dangerous situation that a user could be modifying a copy of an app, but actually impacting their original data. I'd like to suggest that users are given the option to create a 'self-sufficient' app that updates all the references and triggers within the app to use the copied data instead of the original data. For example, if a table is updated to…

Use Map as an input (ie add marker etc) & store location in Caspio field
Ability to use the map as a data input source. I specifically would like to allow users to add a polygon or a line to a map and have the area or length returned and stored in a Caspio field.
Currently the map mashup is being used as an "output or reporting only" fashion.

Ability to programatically modify Application Parameters inside Caspio application
Since the purpose of Application Parameters is to hold "application wide" parameters we should have the ability to set application parameters inside the application itself. This request is an expansion on the following IdeaBox request (http://ideabox.caspio.com/forums/164206-caspio-bridge/suggestions/34038961-include-app-parameters-in-api)
A simple use case is to hold users specific "preferences" or other application level controls. You could use authentication parameters for preferences but simple access to them is not always possible. I wanted to use Application Parameters as a "licensing variable" to control access to various parts of the application dependent upon the feature set they "purchased" meaning all users registered to…

A Better Way To Create Multi Step Forms
The way Caspio has us create multi step forms creates numerous problems. First, the limited styling makes the form look very outdated. Next, there is no back button besides using browser history, which would inevitably submit an unwanted record.

Is there a way to be able to send a single message to multiple results
Just to start I am very new to this! So a gopd place to start with the example database that is preloaded on my Caspio, (the surgeon one) and also the you tube video for the doctors database linked to word press. On this can I say that it's a fantastic guide for some new to this.
I would like to give users the option to carry out a search and have a list of possible results that they can contact (in the video guide it would be doctors). Is there a way that the user could select suitable candidates…

Run Tasks outside of Caspio Website
I would like to see the ability to create a button/link to run a specific task inside of a Datapage. For example, I have many tasks that my staff need to run on demand. Currently, I have to set these tasks up to a schedule, or log in and run them on demand for my staff.
If we had the option to add specific task buttons inside of datapages, or even a specific link that would trigger the task to run, then my staff could run these tasks as they complete their work.

Allow us to create a dropdown that default's to user's data in first item listed
It would be helpful to be able to customize the order of a dropdown list. Specifically if it could default to the user's information but also allow him the option of selecting another item from the dropdown if necessary.
