Claromentis is happy to announce that we have added a couple of new features to the InfoCapture application in 5.6.

1.    HTML field type: HTML field type can be used as a WYSIWYG editor, which helps a user to insert click-able links, allow text formatting, insert an click-able email address link within an InfoCapture form

2.    Codename: Codename is used to simplify the URL for users to list, add, view or edit issues in InfoCapture forms.

Example:  You have an Infocapture project to collect information about suppliers.  The project is called “Suppliers”, and the Codename is specified as “suppliers”.

The original URL that would be used to list all forms submitted in the “Suppliers” project is:

http://forms.claromentis.com/intranet/infocapture/issues.php?project_id_select=*id*

Replacing *id* with the ID of the “Suppliers” project.

This is too often a long a complicated URL for users and admins to remember.  This is also not particularly user friendly.

With the use of a Codename, an alternative (and more user friendly) URL is automatically created as:

http://forms.claromentis.com/forms/suppliers

This ensures that the end users are not confused or mislead by any URL that they are sent via email or linked to from other areas of the site.  The practicality of this is self explanatory!!
