  1. export csv file should not have quotes in each field value

    when create an export csv file without having all the quotes on each value. Most of the time the file export is used for interface and all it needs is comma delimited. It should also provide an option to say include header or not.

    Caspio currently create file this way
    header row with - "Name","phone"
    detail row with - "ABC","9201930000"

    I suggest the header row should be an option, the detail row should not have the quotes e.g. ABC,9201930000

  2. allow me to select an autocomplete value field that is separate from the field filtered on

    When adding an autocomplete field to a form, I would like to be able to select the table/view, the field to filter on AND the field value to store in the record. So that, for example, if I am using an autocomplete field to let someone choose a person, I should be able to choose the 'fullname' field for autocomplete to scan, but 'personid' should be the value that gets stored in the record when it is submitted.

  3. Multi Language posibility

    I like to have the posibility to create a multi language app. Now I can only supply my customers with our native language (dutch), but for our international clients I want to supply an english portal. I cannot set this with the current labeling system in the tables. Is this possible?

  4. allow views on views, so the data source design can effectively become a bit more "object-oriented" and more maintainable

    and also allow "full SQL" definition of views - set unions, set differences etc.; plus creation of combination / concatenation fields in views; would be great in itself but also provide solutions to some of the front end limitations like drop downs can't be sorted on some other field etc.

  5. create an instant app with contest form and submissions for approval and rejection process

    I would like to conduct or host a contest for our newspapers, I would like to have an instant app that would be a generic form with registered users within the database and would be unique. Step 1. Fill out form with information. 2. Make submissions to enter into the contest 3. Admin will go in and approve or reject submissions. 4. Contest will run till a certain date and then the system would randomly pick winners or we can manually pick a unique id at the newspaper.

  6. documentation

    Documentation is key to good database design. There is no where in Caspio to document what I'm doing for future staff. Each Data Page should have a description field that is optionally displayed as a column in the Data Pages view, so that one can scan all data pages within a folder and read the purpose of each. Thanks!

  7. Provide more graph options like Scatter Graphs

    The graph options are very limited in Caspio. The ones there are the most commonly used but sometimes a Scatter Graph or Stack Graph just works better.

  8. Filter a View by comparing two fields like a calculation.

    For example. I would like to be able to create a view by comparing two separate fields.

    1. Field1 Equal to Field2...
    2. Field1, Greater Than or Equal to Field2..
    3. [Sale_Price] - [Cost] < "500"
    4. [LastImportDate] = Max of [LastImportDate]

    Examples, COST vs SALE PRICE. Create a filter that allows me to show

  9. Add analytics to report forms to track keywords used in search

    It would be fantastic for us to track what keywords users are inputting when using our report search in order to determine what topics/issues are most important to our users and provide them with products (research, policies, innovations) based on those results.

  11. Cancel Button on all DataPages

    To create the best interface for users, I have tried different ways of navigation between DataPages. Sometimes users will open a DataPage just to realize that the DataPage was not the right one. An obvious thing would be a cancelclose button on all datapages which does just that: Close the datapage without having to navigate back in the browser "Back-button". Setting the destination wil not solve thes issue as I want to open the possibility to submit several submissons before closing, and also to close without submitting anything at all.

  12. Can you introduce a WYSIWYG DataPage Editor in Design mode

    Can you introduce a WYSIWYG DataPage Editor in design mode where you can drag and drop elements: like views, reports, charts, geomaps, butttons, virtual groupby totals, images, text, etc.. in the header, footer and content area, incl. interactions between the elements.

  13. Report Filter

    Instead of two data pages to accomplish a dynamic filtered search on one page, just include the fields that can be filtered on the report just like the sort option. Even if it is a single filter field and filter value it would be better than nothing or having to using two data pages. If it could be completely dynamic like the designer datasheet view of tables in Caspio, that would be AWESOME!

  14. automatic search based on a user's current location should be built in, rather thank clunky JavaScript add on

    Caspio is great but the map mashup is a little out of date. User's should be able to search using their existing location as a standard feature (not with extra JavaScript) and the maps should be responsive to different devices (as all data pages should be really)

  17. Provide a way to maintain auto-login between sessions. Perma-login.

    Like the way you never have to re-login to facebook, Google, etc. Feature would probably also need a checkbox to disable perma-login if the user is on shared/public computer.

  18. rules

    Allow to modify/evaluate the same field in more than one rule.

    I find it extremely limiting (and unnecessary) that I can only alter the behavior or a field with just one rule. If I need a rule that makes a field visible, and another that makes it required, I can't do that. Even with the help of sections, there are many things I cannot do. Plus, sections bring other limitations (some just aesthetic, but still, unnecessary), and when a Data Page has way too many sections, it breaks, literally.

  19. Increase the limitation for records that can be displayed on charts about 1,000 at a time

    Currently the limit is set to display a maximum of 1,000 records at a time. This is a limitation that cannot be surpassed even with custom coding. Allowing for a greater quantity of records would help us as to not have to break up large databases into several charts to summarize data. It gets messy.

    Thanks,

  20. Create ability to allow for multi-select of primary keys.

    Multiselect is important and available through embed scripts but those are merely for text data type. There are many scenarios, CRM for example, where user is entering sales activities for a company and they want to choose multiple contacts for that company. Since a contact has a unique PK there is no way to choose more than 1 value since the table that stores the "Contact_ID" only stores a integer. There are complicated workarounds using arrays and looped insert functions but not having access to the SQL Server to do triggers or stored procedures places a limitation and puts the…
