Resources

Nested Forms | Auto-attach Uploaded Files from Child to Parent Notifications
Attach files uploaded on a child form to a notification on the parent form. If the parent form has its own File Upload field, this can be enabled by checking the “Attach uploaded files to notification” option in the parent notification.

Gravity Perks

• Fixed issue where Read-Only-enabled Datepicker fields were not correctly evaluated when the datepicker was disabled.

Date Time Calculator (v1.0-beta-3.5)

• Fixed issue where the calculation result would be 0 in some cases when a date before January 1, 1970 (Linux Epoch) is entered into a date field that’s part of a calculation.
• Fixed issue where delta verification check on submission would fail if using commas as decimal separator or if using the currency format.

Limit Checkbox (v1.2.11)
