Re: Relationship Condition Dropdown stopped to work after formula update
Thanks for being on the ball with this one AdamKrzyzanek and sharing the Service page below. Super helpful to anyone who would have been impacted last week to learn there was a known issue being worked on back here at Quickbase. Thank you!Re: Boston Qrew Meetup - May 21, 2025
Awesome seeing everyone at the meetup last night!!! Looking forward to seeing this Boston Qrew continue to grow! Thank you to heatherKaras for an awesome presentation on balancing new and old forms! Major takeaway for me was that both versions of Quickbase Forms offer value today, and that workaround with the code page was slick! Share it here!The Admin Getting Started Hub

I wanted to +1 this post to let anyone seeing it that Robert is awesome, he knows his Quickbase inside and out, and would be a valuable person to know if you're someone living nearby in the Twin Cities. Robert, I'll keep my eyes and ears open and make connections back here if I come across anyone interested!Re: FastField Integration Is Inappropriate
Thanks for showing me examples of what you're seeing, Krista, that's helpful. Joel, thanks again for getting this started as I can see now what you're referring to. This was a recent change to the product made in March. Just so we can make sure this type of feedback gets into the right place, I'd suggest we get a product feedback idea submitted on this topic. "Provide customers with a way to hide FastField ads in Quickbase". One thing to clarify here, and I realize this is secondary to you because it's unrelated to your frustration. But it is important to distinguish. FastField is not an "add-on", nor is it a third-party application. FastField is Quickbase product. An example of an add-on is Audit Logs retention. Customers can purchase Audit Logs retention as an add-on to their existing plan contract with Quickbase. App Restore Assistance is an additional example. Here's the announcement of when Quickbase acquired MergeMobile and its flagship feature, FastField. Here's a blog on how Quickbase and FastField products can work together between field and back office workers. Only sharing the above to ensure we don't confuse anyone as this is public forum and I'd want anyone reviewing this discussion to have accurate information. Most important to you both, I've shared the feedback you provided internally so people in product are aware. As mentioned above it would be great to get this feedback into our product feedback portal to ensure this is seen by the appropriate teams. As this was recently introduced, we'll want customers to voice how it's impacting them and offer ideas on how we can improve. Let me know if there's any questions on the above.Re: FastField Integration Is Inappropriate
Hey JoelHickok and KristaSibery, sorry this has been a frustrating experience. I'd love to learn a bit more about what you're seeing. Can we find a time to meet so you can walk me through the areas you're seeing FastField? I want to be in a place where I know exactly what you're referring to so I can take back to internal teams. Calendly - Ben Simon Calendly above if you're game for a quick call. Thanks for raising this, let's see what we can do here. -BenRe: Empower exceeded all expectations!
Thanks for sharing this Mike. We loved how engaged you were this week in New Orleans. You asked great questions, provided awesome feedback, and you showed genuine excitement towards the improvements being made in the product. We're pumped to have people like you in The Qrew!
