Custom Colors/CSS for individual series in a page dashboard
Hi, I have a gauge chart that shows me a count of ticket status ie. in progress/late/done/not started. At the moment they chart can be styled with set colors or on a color scale. Is there anyway to specify a color based upon the series/field - late is red, not started is grey etc... ? The fields are based on a fixed drop down so there is no chance of mis-spellings or accidental additions. Thought this would be an abvious feature given how customizable Zoho is. Maybe I've just not found it yet :)
App for recording delivery of consignment of blood products
Hi everyone I've recently taken on the role providing technical support to a charity here in the UK. We provide emergency out of hours transportation of blood, platelets, human milk etc. for the health service here in the UK.

How to post data from a web page to Zoho database with no network!?
Firstly, an apology - after much reading I'm not even sure I have the right forum. I was looking for the forum relating to the Zoho database our charity uses - I think it's Creator? But all the docs talk about Creator being an app platform, not a DB, so I'm not sure. Apologies if I'm in the wrong place. Secondly, we're looking at how to allow our mobile end users to submit data to the database when they have no network. Yes, I know, bear with me... We're considering a few options but one of them
Bulk Edit a Log
Hi I saw this post and want to know if this feature can be done using bulk edit? I have a courier company and want to update the status of multiple packages at the same time? It started as a simple long text field "Notes Log", and then we added a feature that: User enters new text in a separate field "Add Note". Upon submit, scripting prepends what they just entered at the top of the "Notes Log" field, AND it automatically adds the current date (we decided against date/time), and a visual divider

'Application' vs. 'Solution' in Zoho Creator Developer Zone?
1. What is the difference between building an 'Application' and a 'Solution' in Zoho Creator Developer Zone? 2. I want to build an app and have customers subscribe to my app rather than sell the app to them. What is best for me? 3. Is there a way for a client to subscribe to my software and for them to add their own users like you would using any other software out there? I really like the Zoho Creator platform but I have no idea how to get my app to market in an effective way..
Triggering an 'On input' script for existing records
Hi, I have a form with some simple automation whereby editing one field dictates the input of another. This was achieved using an 'On input' deluge workflow.

I believe it can be achieved with a function but I'm not sure where to start. Any help would be much appreciated.

one to one relation in a function
I have got a new issue to work out. Form Profile is linked to Form Person through lookup field Lookup_Profile. I want to allow only one entry of Profile for each record in Person. And create a function (with a button in Person records) that opens a new Profile record OR the existing one if it already exists. I didn't get much further than fetching all records of Profile in a variable. Like recProfile = Profile ( ID != 0 ); After that I would need to check if the Lookup_Profile already is in recProfile.

Ability to Create/Set Custom Form Templates in Creator 5
Hi! I have been developing a course/operations management application for a client. We tested concept in version 4, then switched to version 5 to develop the application. I noticed that while there are many form templates to choose from in version 5 (which is nice), there isn't a way to set a custom form that I develop as a template. In my client's situation, we are handling course registrations through the application along with other operational functions. I tried creating one 'master' registration

Show records in the last x weeks
I know this should be simple but I seem to be tying myself in knots trying to get this done. Form1 has a list of week no's. ie 1,2,3,4,5 etc as type string (so they sort). Form2 has a lookup to the week no's in Form1 as well as an errorName. I want to count all the errors that have occurred in the last x number of weeks. ie count of Form2 where week no is todays week no - 12. This would give me the total number of errors in the past 3 months. Any help is much appreciated, thanks!
Reset and Submit button not working
I am having an issue with the form Reset button and Submit button. Both work in the application however, on on the published link neither button works correctly. The Reset button will not reset the form. The Submit button sends the data in the form to the report but it does not reset the form and give the "Successful Submission" message. This is happening for all forms in my account. Thanks, Matt

Merging Records
Has anyone (Damien Cregan) written a script that will do a suitable job of merging Zoho Creator records? Zoho CRM has this functionality on the front-end, but I haven't seen anything on the Googles or the interwebs to indicate that anyone has tackled this for Creator. Thanks!

Creator 5 - Edit Record based on Record-ID
What URL pattern can I use in Creator 5 to open a form and edit a specific record using the record ID? I have a list report with an onClick function. OnClick executes a deluge script to open a stateless form using the selected record's ID. Example code is below. All of the variables correctly populate. However, I cannot figure out the correct URL pattern for 'Editing Records via Record-ID.' The form will open, but it is always blank and it does not reference the record. openurl("https://app.zohocreator.com/"

Problem updating new row in SubForm
I have created a form that contains a SubForm. I have actions through a workflow that automatically set field values, for example: Form > Created or Edited > User input of SubForm.Frequency > Calculate Next Date if (SubForm.Frequency == "Annually") { input.SubForm.Next_Date = input.SubForm.Date.addMonth(12); } This works as intended and updates the field value for the first row entered; however, if any additional rows are added, the first row values are updated based on actions in the second row

Redirect to A New Form (Without Submit & Reset buttons)
I have created a form for covid-19 contact tracing. Form is working well, after scanning QR code.

Change text when no records are found in report
Hi, Is it possible to change the default text and appearance when no records are found? I am getting the "No records match your specified criteria!" and then the buttons "Add record" or "import data" See screenshot. This is kind of relevant as I am displaying a report on a page that only occasionally will contain records. I would rather see no text at all and definitely no buttons. Thank you btw, I could hide the wrapper with css, but wondering if there is also a way to change the text
