One Year Anniversary

The FormAssembly.com commercial service is now one year old! I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the people who contributed to the success of this site.

First, to everyone who reported bugs, suggested improvements, provided feedback and simply put our service to test and adopted it.

To the users and the designers who provided templates and stylesheets and made it easier for others to get started.

To the developer community whose invaluable contribution has made the open-source libraries Freja and wForms better.

And finally, we are very grateful to those who took the time to provide translations. Thanks to them we can offer localized web forms in over 20 languages.

In no particular order, here are a few of them (with links when available). Thanks again!

New Features Released

You might have noticed a few changes in the site in the last few days and in case you are wondering, here is the official notice of the latest updates.

Email Notification Customization

You can now customize the email notification that you receive each time a response to your web forms is submitted. This means you can translate it to your native language, you can remove the formassembly.com branding and you can also remove the submitted data from the notification. This last option is particularely important if you are collecting sensitive information that should not be transmitted over an insecure protocol like email.

At this time, the notification is still being sent from the ‘report@formassembly.com’ email address, but you can change the sender name. Support for a fully customizable address is coming soon. You may ask to be notified when this option is available.

Email Notification Customization

RSS Feed password protection

You can now activate the password protection on your RSS feed. This is the default setting for new users. Password protection adds a layer of security to your data in case someone gains access to your RSS subscriptions (please note that the address of your feed cannot be otherwise guessed or inferred).

Miscellaneous

  • Form Builder bug fix that prevented some conditional sections from showing when needed
  • Site layout fixes in IE6 and IE7
  • Email notifications now include by default the links to any uploaded files
  • If you try to access a page in your account without being logged on, the login prompt will now redirect you to the desired page instead of the default form tab.

As always your feedback is appreciated. You can post a comment here or in the support forum.
