[Feedback] custom action to open form
I have a custom function that opens a form from a view. It works correctly when I am logged into my Zoho account. I have embedded the HTML view in my website. When I click on the Action button to open the form the Loading message shows momentarily but the form does not open up. If I open another tab in the browser and log in to my Zoho account then go back to the first tab the Action Button does open the form correctly. How do I get the form to open without requiring a login? Herb Wexler MBA www.PreventingMediocrity.com
View's criteria based on list returned by a user function?
Hi, I am trying to create a sort of e-commerce application where dealers can purchase items from a manufacturer directly, or distributors can purchase the items on behalf of them. I am currently building out the functionality of a sort of "shopping cart", which is stored server-side. My goal is to create a view where dealers can view all of their orders, whereas distributors can view the orders that are made by dealers that they are associated with. I have a user function ViewableDealers(email_address)

Hello. I've exported the data as a backup of my Zoho database, deleted the data, and now and want to restore it using the Import tool. I keep getting an import error.

DATA LOSS SHOCK: Records gone missing
I have recorded close to 100 records under my Zoho creator application 'Top Runners Item List' spending 10 hours during sleepless full night. When I open today after a week I was disapointed to see only 2 records remaining and other bulk of records gone missing. Is there any way to recover this missing records? This is very frustating and disappointing after I had much hope on Zoho. Any help is much appreciated -Jag jag@singaporeitservices.com

I am getting an error message when I try to import 360 records into my new Zoho Creator database. When I import only three records at a time, they import fine. Please help.

[Feedback] Project Manager Plus
I suspect many of your users have Projects that follow a similar and precise timeline. For this reason, the ability to set up a template for milestones and tasks woudl be valueable. For instance, I could have 100 projects per year that have precisely the same 5 steps. Each of these steps has the same 5 tasks. The dates will be different. Notes for each might be different. But my Milestones and tasks to meet each one are exactly the same. A template would save a lot of time.

Problem creating views - they work fine for me but not for other users
Has anyone else ever experienced such a problem? This is an application that we've been using for more than a year, it's been working fine. I'm adding some forms to it, that was working OK ... however, now when I try to add new views, they work fine for me but not for any other users, although they're shared. The other users either get a blank page, or the page hangs, or they see two sets of navigation tabs and nothing else. This happens when I log in as another user also. There's nothing wrong with

API access to Deluge functions (e.g., email)
Hi, a sorta complicated feature request. I have a Creator db for the membership of a community organization. There are over 100 members, and only a small number of them should have access to the entire list. Those people are users, can log in, and everything works more-or-less fine. But I want to give everyone else read access to just their row in the database. I already have a user-defined Deluge script that allows me to select people in a Creator view and the db will automatically email them their

Filtering by a field in a related Form
In my TradeMaster (shared to Support), the View "Test reports & Certificates" shows info in Form " test reports" as well as some fields in a related Form "PO_items".

[Feedback] Make a form "active" at a certain time/date
Is there any script right now that would allow me to embed a form into a web page and then make that form not work or show up with a custom message stating that it won't be active until January 1 2009 or something of that nature? The client has their form created but they don't want users to touch it until a certain date. I'd like to be able to provide a systematic solution for this problem rather than saying, don't post it until then. Any thoughts?
