Submissions: Ability to make the data submitted capitalized on submission page and grid listings

    Asked on February 4, 2016 at 4:37 PM

    I would like to have the submitted data capitalized in both the Submissions and any grid listings Is there a way to do this in the source code at all, I have tried various bits of code but as my coding skills are not that good nothing has happened.

    This  was asked in a posting in Aug 201, has the Dev Team managed anything on this yet.

    See   https://www.jotform.com/answers/636263-Ability-to-force-capitalization-of-text-for-submissions

    It seems rather strange that it is possible to capitalize in the input and in the Notification but it falls short on the important bit, displaying in a grid listing with random lower and uppercase just because the user can't or won't use the shift key Arrrgh !!  

    Could you maybe give me the code to insert into the source to make this happen. It would make the things look a bit more professional, especially on the webpage where it is displayed.

    If I could get all users to use autofill with the correct capitalization in the first place it would then happen automatically ... dream on !!

    I would like to apologize for any inconvenience, however, this has not been implemented yet. I will be submitting a request to add this feature to our developers on your behalf. The more users requesting for the same feature would make the feature, more likely, be prioritized.

    You will be notified via this thread for updates if there are any.

    Hi Beau and Willy,

    Unfortunately, this request hasn't accepted by our higher team at the moment. I assume that current workload is not allowing to do extra features like this one. However, this one has stored in our "To do list" now, so it will be evaluated when the available time comes. Thank you for your suggestion.

     

    Regards.

    It is quite a number of months since a request for this feature was first raised.
    Is there any chance that this be implemented soon?

    I would like to apologize, however, I'm afraid it would not be available anytime soon. I will update the request made for this thread for you. I'm sorry if we cannot provide any ETA to when it will be implemented, but rest assured that this thread will be updated once it becomes available.

    Thank you.

    The feature request I opened for this request on your behalf is still opened. However, please be assured that this is already included in our "To-Do-List". Again, apologies if we cannot provide any ETA to when this feature will be available or a guarantee that it will be available anytime soon. You will just be updated on this thread the time it becomes available.

    Thank you.

    Original request Feb 2016

    Have they lost this request ? Its a year and six months since they got the request.

    Any chance of implementation at all? They must be clear of V4 build by now !!

    Yours patiently waiting

    Unfortunately, I'm not sure what is the status of this request.

    But I'll forward an inquiry to our backend team for a possible update regarding this ticket.

    Thank you for your patience.

    It is 2years plus since I requested this feature. has nobody asked for it at all.

    It seems strange to me that this was not a standard feature originally.

    Any update, maybe a wee poke in the ribs might help :)

    Unfortunately, there isn't any updates, or plans to have this implemented yet. It seems like no more similar request have been received.

    It, now 6 years old surely their "To do list" is not that long and it has been asked by quite a few others as far as I can see.
    Is it not that easy a task?
    Can you send them a reminder, maybe they have lost it.
    and if they have not lost it, please ask them why they cannot do this, I'd be interested to know why they cannot do this.

    Hello Willy,

    Unfortunately, I don’t have an update yet. I know that it’s taking some time to resolve and that is very stressful. Please note that feature requests will be developed depending on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users request them. However, I’ve reached out to our Developer Team again to request an update. 

    We’ll let you know as soon as there is an update. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

    OK, looks like they are not interested in doing this, that's a shame. I find it hard to believe that some of the other additions that they develope are that well used, maybe I am wrong though!
