The new "sidebar" navigation sucks.
The new "sidebar" navigation sucks. Everyone in my organization hates it. It is needlessly cumbersome to do anything now. It is also really stupid that you guys aren't going to let us, the paying customer, simply have the choice in how we prefer to use it and instead force it down our throats after the new year.Solved2KViews8likes27CommentsSide Bar Navigation SUCKS.
Am I to understand that top navigation is going to be permanently moved to side navigation beginning in 2025? If so, that is one really dumb move. We have ALOT of reports that are designed to fit on the screen exactly as they are. Now they will all have a horizontal scroll bar which makes it an unnecessary waste of time having to scroll left to right to see the entire report. Why do you guys arbitrarily change stuff nobody really asked for? And why don't you just give us the option to stay with what we are comfortable with. Removing choices in preference is really stupid.382Views3likes3CommentsWho picked this new ugly font?
Guys, seriously. Is QB on a speed-run to ruin the platform as fast as possible? I wake up today, and have dozens of complaints from users on the new system font that is harder to read that the previous one. Seriously, what was the point of this change?239Views1like10CommentsUse AI to create a field based on another text field
Is it possible to use AI to create a field "Category" based on another text field "Description." The field description is of-course is verbose and all over the place. But technically LLM should be able to create a succinct 'Category' field for me by parsing the actual topic of discussion captured in the description field. Is this possible within Quickbase?185Views1like5CommentsDocument Template/Creation (PDF)
First off, loving the document/pdf creation function. Has opened some new areas of opportunity in a few tables. One thing I am having trouble with, maybe a setting/enablement I am overlooking , but I want to enable a user to generate a document from any given filtered view or a customized report view. For example I have material requests for various jobs, if I create a report to filter to just by job and visibly only see that job's requests, we'd want to a user to have the ability to just click generate a document and it makes it off that view's records. If I do that now, it actually generates the document for the whole overall table, not what report I'm in and what records I visibly see from that report.482Views1like3CommentsThe New Pipeline Builder UI is a downgrade overall: Please adjust it
This will probably be a hot topic, but it needs to be said since the better legacy builder UI is being removed soon. Posting here rather than a "suggestion" because in my 6 years of doing QuickBase Development, the suggestions page has proven to be basically useless at getting the word out on issues. Overall the new PL Builder UI only offers ONE feature that is a benefit, which is full step-reordering. But, this should have just been added to the old UI. Who asked for a new UI? The new UI, overall, is just cumbersome/slow and annoying to use. I have waited for a long time now, expecting the UI to be improved, but I've see no such fixes to the issues the new UI has, as such it is now time to talk about it. See my images below with added notes. Below is probably one of the absolute worse design choices overall; Why do we have to OPEN each section of the step? What value does this add? All this does is slow down the process by forcing me to go "open, open, open" when in the old one I can see ALL THREE items at once. The old view is beyond better: Open the step, take a glance, bam, done. This adds literally ZERO benefit to admins/devs. The old UI has too much white-space, but at least I can see everything.107Views1like2CommentsHow to add a link to new notifications?
Does anyone know how to add a link to new notifications? In old notifications you can simply make a rich text link and reference the field, but in the new notifications it just shows the rich text field as text. My use case is: The notification fires from a child record, but I want to be able to have a link to the parent record in the email.206Views1like2Comments
