SeaTable 5.2. out now!

Today is a great day: We are happy to release SeaTable Version 5.2! Self-hosters, please proceed to download version 5.2 from the well-known Docker Hub repository. SeaTable Cloud users can lean back and enjoy the newest features and improvements. We updated the system this morning at 6 am CET.

The following highlights are available to all users:

  • Complex filters: Filter your data sets like never before
  • Powerful conditional formatting: Color rows and cells using values in other columns
  • Improved single record page type: Manage access to fields and build more user friendly pages
  • Improved form page type: Design workflows by redirecting users to other pages or websites
  • Improved individual page type: Present multiple tables on one page with the new element “basic table”
  • New whiteboard plugin: Collaborate on whiteboards in real-time

Additionally, enterprise users benefit from enhanced permission control on the calendar and timeline page.

You find the Release Notes for the new version in the SeaTable Blog. The complete list of changes is – as always – available in the Changelog.

Note to developers: Please take note of the deprecation notice for some API endpoints.

Great progress!

Question:

When will comments also be displayed in the universal app?

Comments are displayed on table pages.

Good update! :star_struck: New filtering is what we need! Setting the color parameters depending on the parameters of other columns, displaying the comment icon. Super!

Yes but not on the other views, even if the comment section is visible.

The rights for changes in the Kanban view in the app were reset to nobody.

Were comments ever available in the universal app builder on the kanban page? I updated to 5.2 yesterday, and my team swears that they had the ability to leave comments and view them inside the kanban board. But now when you click on a card, it doesn’t show the sidebar or comments feature.

So just wondering if this is a bug in the new update, or if my team is mistaken and the comments feature was never available on the kanban.

It’s the same on the cloud version. In the universal apps, there are no comments on kanban boards.

Thanks
Kevin

Comments are ONLY available on the pages of type table.

It is correct that a comment pane was also displayed on pages of other types. This has been changed. Please see the Changelog.

Great update! However, we’re still experiencing the Forms bug, where if a form field is autofilled (e.g with the browsers auto fill contact feature) the form cannot be submitted. Anyone else still having this issue after the update to 5.2?

Yes, we still have problems too. We use a form for the transmission of our customers’ order data. Some customers have also reported problems to us after the update. The form cannot be sent and there is no clear error message. We then tested again and realised that the error still seems to occur with the autocomplete function.

I noticed some filters and settings in the app are false now.

Would you be so kind and substantiate your comment with some reproducible instructions?

Sure, in the app I saw the following issues:

  • the user settings for one Kanban were totally reset to view only.
  • filter options for one page were falsely reset.

In one base:

  • the date column was set to default value

You are mentioning “one Kanban”, “one page” and “one base”. So we are talking three individual issues that you observed?

correct.
