Add "Download PDF" option for the details page as an option in the results page.
Currently, users need to open the datapage, then click the download pdf button. This becomes cumbersome when the user needs to access the details page, fill in the form and update, then re-access the details page to download a pdf. It would be helpful if we could link the Download PDF feature as a column option in the results page along with Edit/Delete/View Details

Data range search functionality
A search and report datapage should have the ability for users to add a date range as a From: [Date] & To: [Date] to pull a months in the past rather than as a relation of today.
EXAMPLE: Registration Date From: [Jan 1, 2010] To: [Jan 31, 2010]
3 votesThis is possible by adding a second criteria to your date field in the search form. One criteria set to >= and the other to <=.

Create an autonumber field that will use a prefix, such as Proj100
Autonumbering with a alphanumeric prefix would be a nice feature.

Time Out & Redirection - Please allow 8 hours of authentication ( a full work day ) before forcing new login
Employees use (any system), but the authentication rules force them to login twice per day (unless you give them 12 or 24 hour access). It would seem to make sense to allow for a 8 hour authentication rule before forcing them to log back in, since most employees work an 8 hour day. - Unless there is some way to customize this that I am unaware of!
Currently the rules are:
15 minutes
30 minutes
1 hour
2 hours
6 hours
12 hours
1 day
3 days

Option to use a Value from Calculated Value in another Calculated Value field
Sometimes you need to use a value obtained from a Calculated Value field in another one. But actually when you define a field as a "Calculated Value", you can't use it in the "Calculated Value" field.

allow a copy to be made of style sheets.
It would be nice to maintain an original style sheet as a "template" and make your changes to a copy rather than the original.
2 votesSelect the style and click copy. Works on all Caspio objects.

Allow opening a datapage and a table at the same time in two windows - OR, save work without publishing.
Sometimes I've done a lot of programming developing a new datapage and I need to refer to a table's contents before I proceed. As it is now, I need to close the datapage (resulting in a loss of all work unpublished) in order to open the table and then go back to the datapage to work on it. It seems it would be efficient if I could save my work or rename it while I'm in the file OR could open up a table to review while I'm working on a datapage.
2 votesAbility to open multiple windows or tabs with tables, DataPages or other Bridge objects is now enabled in the new 8.0 release. More information can be found at http://howto.caspio.com/release-notes/caspio-bridge-8-0/

Dropdown menus for related fields in child tables
We do some data entry directly into tables. For child tables, I just discovered the checkmark to "Enforce Referential Integrity", in order to ensure that related data gets connected. But it still requires that you know, or look up, the exact spelling, etc. of the data you want to put in that field. If, when Referential Integrity is Enforced, the child table displayed a dropdown menu instead of a text box, data entry would be faster and less error prone.
2 votesIn relationship dialog window, you can pick a field in the “Value for display in Related field” dropdown to enable the lookup dropdown in child tables.

Tidy up sticky headers for a more professional look
Currently, when scrolling down with sticky headers, records move above the header and the download and search options are lost. A much more professional look would be to prevent records above the header from being visible, and to have the download and search options displayed at all times. In effect, this would be like creating a fixed, opaque banner above the first record.
2 votesThank you again for this idea. The feature is now available.

TRIGGERS ARE AWESOME, BUT NEED
TRIGGERS ARE AWESOME, BUT WE NEED TO HAVE SOME OF THEM AUTOMATIC AND NOT FORCED. EXAMPLE: IF DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DATE ENTERED AND TODAY'S DATE IS 30 DAYS, IT AUTOMATICALLY MOVES RECORDS FROM ON TABLE TO THE NEXT.
ALSO, THE NEW TRIGGERS NEED THE OPTION TO BE ABLE TO SEND THE NOTIFICATIONS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT EMAILS OUT JUST AS YOU CAN WHEN YOU USE THE DATAPAGES.
I HOPE YOU CAN IMPLEMENT THIS REQUESTS SOON, BECAUSE DOING THINGS MANUALLY IS GETTING OLD.
THANKS IN ADVANCE.
2 votesEmail and SMS options are now available in Trigger Actions in Caspio Bridge 12.0. More information can be found at https://howto.caspio.com/tables-and-views/triggered-actions/

Bulk SMS
The inability to create applications that have bulk sms functionality is part of the reasons im still deciding on developing my applications using Caspio.
Please look into this. Twilio already has tariffs for many countries, so its easy to integrate this into Caspio. please look into this.
