The highlight of this release is the new Form builder submissions report which offers improved listing and filtering of Form submissions, helping you to evaluate the effectiveness of the form.
Information includes the total number of submissions for the form, a graph that shows the date range of the submissions. For each submission data includes date of submission, IP address of the person submitting the form and each form field value. The listing of submissions can also be downloaded to a text file for use in excel.
The select box library (Select2) we use has also been upgraded from V3 to V4. This may result in nuances in the way select boxes work.
