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…

Create a combination single record update and submission datapage
I would like to see a feature that essentially allows for one form to be both a single record update and submission datapage simultaneously. The practical use for this type of datapage would be edit an existing record based on a unique ID and if it does not exist, create it.
For customer (and even employee) facing applications, simplicity is key. One datapage that would look up to see if they have a record in a particular table to allow them to edit its contents and if not create one would be quite useful. I imagine other caspio users could…

make Recaptcha available
Instead of just Captcha also make Recaptcha available so people that are interested can move away from numbers & letters, which can sometimes be difficult to enter, & allow the use of Recaptcha with pictures or the click of a box. This would reduce frustration for many users.

In LookupTables, enable Sort By a field other than Value or Display
I am regularly running into this limitation. I have an item # (value) and an item name (display) in my Lookup Table. I also have an item category, which is what I'd like to use for the Sort By - but the options currently limit Sort By to either value or display.

Date formats
In Australia (where I live) the usual date format is dd/mm/yyyy. In the US it is usually mm/dd/yyyy.
I appreciate there are localisation options, but when selecting date as a field type, there aren't.
Can the default be the international - yyyy/mm/dd
At least then that column will sort correctly and display in date order.11 votes -
Improving User Roles and Permissions on Bridge Accounts
The User Roles in the Bridge Account need to be updated to seperate user roles and access to tasks within the Admin console. eg: Import/Export and Scheduled tasks should have there own user group as well as adding users. These tasks need to have seperate selection under the user/permissions access so specific user groups can be assigned to these features without compromising development access.
In Corporate Organisations roles between development, tasks and user management are segragated duties.11 votes -
Accessibility for Section 508 Compliance
Authentications do not have page titles - When a Datapage uses an authentication, I noticed that the <title> element within the <head> code for that page is empty. But once a DataPage is launched, the <title> element is the same as the DataPage name (which is good). WCAG 2.0 SC 2.4.2https://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/navigation-mechanisms-title.html states that all Web pages must have a <title> that describes the topic or purpose of the page. Currently, we are out of compliance with this success criterion since our authentication pages do not have titles. This is something we would like to work with Caspio developers to…

Add NavBar Menu datapage
Currently we are using an HTML datapage to add a navbar menu on every webpage. The reason for this is to not duplicate code and have the ability to dynamically change the menu with different user authentications. Unfortunately, we cannot authenticate the navbar menu differently than the datapage on the webpage, so we had to resort to authenticating all datapages the same and re-direct the user manually if their authentication doesn't match.
It would be really convenient to have a navbar menu datapage that you could add menu buttons, drop downs, etc. And assign URL's to the buttons for redirecting.…11 votes -
Allow me to close or move the "Live Help" box
While having the "Live Help" box directly inside Caspio Bridge is fantastic, it is in an inconvenient location. The It is right over the scroll bar and can be in the way if trying to move around a table. If there was an option to close it or move it to a different part of the screen that would be great.
Same thing if it's moved to a bubble, it covers the scroll arrows in the corner.

files
When uploading a file, the "Save to folder" option permits a hard-coded value. It would be useful to pass a value to this, such as User ID, so that different users' files aren't co-mingled, but instead placed into their individual folders.

Websites builder hosted by caspio where we embed our codes
Many website builders have limitation when it comes to hosting caspio’s pages where advanced features are embedded. Wix can’t handle caspio’s advanced features even though their websites are probably more esthetically better looking than weebly. Can caspio not offer white labeled or blank sites that one can purchase and deploy code in?
Simply blank sites but that can handle the deployment of all caspio’s features

Should be able to have "download data" for PDF above header
For our customers it is really confusing to find the download PDF option when it is below the header - tucked right above data
It is far far far from idiot proof
The PDF option needs to be super simple for people to use
I also agree with other posts where it should just be able to populate for print and not force a download11 votes -
See All Connections To Specific Table Field
Currently, the only way to view all connections related to a certain FIELD in a table is to click on DELETE for that field in the Table Design and view the Connections popup.
This seems like a horrible place to view this, being only 1 misclick away from ruining your database.
I am looking for a way to view all connections to a field (not an entire table) without having to go through the delete process.

Style Theme
It would be nice to select a theme (colors + icons) so we don't have to configure each element one by one in the style. In the same way that word or excel are doing it. Each element of the theme are still editable.

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?

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.

Keep the formatting
I wish the Caspio program would allow users to download the exact same report as seen on the report display to MS. Excel. For example I have spent time formatting my data elements as a percentage , or with an extra decimal place, or currency as dollars with the two extra decimal places. However once I downloaded the report I notice that all formatting is gone. I am fully aware that I can make format changes in MS Excel but I feel like I am doing the work twice I wish that these items would export automatically.

implement Front End Data Validation
Customizable validation for data submission forms and update reports and forms would be very nice.
i.e...
0 < DOBmo < 13
0 < DOBday < 32
1900 < vehicleYear < DATEPART(year, now())
FirstName (Not Like "[!((a-z) or (0-9))]")

allow checkboxes to be displayed as toggle switches
Have more style options for check boxes and other form fields. Suggested use of toggle switches instead of check boxes for better UI. Similar to bootstrap toggle (http://www.bootstraptoggle.com)
