This page shows the complete change log for Dynamic Forms for SharePoint and DFFS plugins (vLookup has a separate change log for older changes).

August 12, 2024

Changed files in this release:
——————————-
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend_min.js v4.4.5.53
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend_min.js v4.4.5.53
/DFFS/css/DFFS_frontend.css v4.67

DFFS v4.4.5.53

• Fixed some internal functions related to setting choice fields readonly where getFieldValue returned duplicate values for multichoice fields.
• Changed the license code validation so that if it fails to connect to the license server on the initial request, it tries again multiple times over a minute. This is done to prevent failed validation in cases where the initial request failed, but DFFS is licensed.

June 23, 2024

Changed files in this release:
——————————-
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend_min.js v4.4.5.52
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend_min.js v4.4.5.52

/DFFS/css/DFFS_frontend.css v4.66

DFFS v4.4.5.51

• Fixed a bug where if you included the Attachment field in an accordion (collapsible heading), the field would automatically show again and not keep hidden when you collapsed the heading.

DFFS_frontend.css v4.66

• Changed the target for the style applied to a heading to apply it to the inner div and not to the outer td. This to make it easier to add space between headings when you use the accordion functionality – just use margin-bottom to space them.
• Changed the style on the built in standard heading style tabH1 and tabH2 to add margin-bottom:2px; and reduced the font size to 20px and 16px.

• Fixed a bug introduced in the previous version that clears the hidden input (the one that is saved to SharePoint) if the search field is cleared. This works as intended for single choice autocompletes, but when using multichoice it unintentionally cleared the values in the hidden field even if the selected options were listed below the search field.

DFFS v4.4.5.47

• Fixed a problem where a list with a space in the name (in the URL, not the display name) would fail to load the DFFS configuration after it was edited because the space was replaced with %20 in the title of the configuration. Please note that after updating to this version you must manually edit the configuration to replace %20 with a space in the Title column. You can find the configuration by opening the list /Lists/SPJSDynamicFormsForSharePoint

SPJS-ac.js v1.6.54

• Fixed a bug with using the placeholder {currentUserEmail} in combination with the REST email functionality when you were not using SharePoint online. In that case, the email address should be inserted, but the full login name was used inserted.
• Fixed a bug occurring when you used multiple rules that triggered on “The form is saved”. The Set field value section on ALL these rules would be run if ONE of them were true even if you had linked rules that returned false on some of the rules.
• Changed the contextual help to specify that you must select “Who can view the membership of the group = Everywone” when using a SharePoint usergroup in the to / cc field of an email.

April 01, 2022

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.44
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.44

DFFS v4.4.5.44

• One more fix on the readonly multichoice field when chaning tabs – if you used the Misc-tab functionaity to stack the options in multiple columns the options still were duplicated – this is now fixed.

March 27, 2022

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.43
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.43

v4.4.5.43

• Fixed a bug where an internal variable (spjs.dffs.data.dffs_email_baseUrl) was wrong when using it on the root site. This caused errors when attemting to stop pending email.
• Fixed a bug in the new readonly layout for multichoice checkboxes introduced in the last release. If you had a readonly multichoice field in a tab, navigated to another tab and back again all the options were duplicated.

March 19, 2022

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.42
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.42
/DFFS/css/DFFS_frontend.css v4.65

December 23, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.40
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.40

v4.4.5.40

• Fixed a bug occurring when cloning a rule that has configured setFields. When changing the selection of the setFields of the cloned rule, the values are not actually updated on the cloned rule, but on the original rule. A save and refresh of the DFFS backend would fix the issue, but you had to reselect the correct values in the setFields section.
• Fixed a bug occurring when an email triggering when saving a form is missing a recipient. This will show a dialog with options to skip the email or go back to the form to correct the recipient field, but the save of the item was not aborted – resulting in the dialog showing for a brief moment before the form was saved (skipping the email with the missing recipient).
• Fixed a bug where if you added more than one field in curly braces in the “This value” field when comparing a field with in a rule it would result in an error in the developer console:
  Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #dffs_YourFieldName1|YourFieldName2
• Added a default value of 500 in the “Defer loading of DFFS” setting in the Misc tab to try to prevent rules triggering on people pickers on form load to miss the value in the people picker because SharePoint loads the values in these fields asynchronously. Any value you add manually in this field will be added to the default 500ms.

December 03, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.39
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.39

DFFS v4.4.5.39

• Fixed a bug related to detecting if attachments are available in the form. This caused different issules like the field being invisible until you had added atleast one attachment, or in case you used custom js to loop trough all fields making them readonly.

November 20, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.38
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.38
/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-utility.js v1.356

DFFS v4.4.5.38

• Added an option to specify a custom error message in case a form fails to load because the parsing of the configuration fails. This error message must be added to the DFFS loader file you use (depending of the version your use it is either DFFS_frontend_CEWP.html, DFFS_loader.html or DFFS_Loader_v2.html) like this:

  var spjs_dffs_parseConfigFailedMsg = "Add your custom messge here.";

• Added to the contextual help on the Run these functions / evaluate these rules field to clarify the difference between this field and Linked rules and functions field.

SPJS-utility v1.356

• Removed an alert “The attribute FieldType is missing for the field…” when trying to use setFieldValue on a field that does not exist.

November 16, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.37
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.37

DFFS v4.4.5.37

• Fixed a bug related to using the Custom function trigger. The function would trigger, but would not return the correct value to the rule so it would not be executed as true.

November 13, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.36
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.36
/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-utility.js v1.355

DFFS v4.4.5.36

• If attachments are disabled in the list settings the attachments field was still showing in the form (if you had not configured tabs) and as selectable in the DFFS config when adding fields to tabs.
• Added a new jQuery data attribute called “dffs_value” to input:radio to fix a problem in some list templates (like the calendar list) related to the getFieldValue function. See details in the SPJS-utility section below.

SPJS-utility v1.355

• Fixed a problem related to a change in how values were read from a radio-button choice field in v1.353 (September 29, 2021) to fix a potential problem with using a browser plugin to translate text in the page. In some list templates (for example the calendar), the value attribute of the input tag did not match the actual text value of the option. This resulted in a field set as readonly showing the value ctl00, ctl01, ctl02 and so on. On the “custom list” template it did have the proper value in the value attribute so it did not affect lists of this type. This new fix requires that you also update DFFS_frontend_min.js to v4.4.5.36.

October 31, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.35
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.35

DFFS v4.4.5.35

• A readonly rich text field did not allow copy of text contents. This was fixed in v4.4.5.5, but needed a new fix – most likely caused by changes in SharePoint base code.

October 15, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.34
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.34

DFFS v4.4.5.34

• Fixed a bug where the value from a field used in a side-by-side configuration could not be accessed using {fin} in Set field value in a rule or when used in for example an email body.
• Added code to automatically strip away the id attribute and the class spjs_formtable_row from HTML added to a rich text multiline to prevent errors when copy-pasting the HTML from a SharePoint form into a rich text editor. This is done to prevent script errors occurring when a function searches for a field by it’s id attribute and there are multiple items with the same ID because form elements have been duplicated by copy-pasting HTML code into a rich text editor. This sanitize function is applied both on form load and on save to catch dirty HTML code already present in a RTE before this update.

SPJS-utility v1.354

• Removed an alert message [‘getFieldValue] The attribute ‘FieldType’ is missing from the FieldInternalName “Name_of_field that could occur if you had copy-pasted the HTML from a SharePoint form into a rich text editor and you tried to get the value from one of the fields that were duplicated.

October 12, 2021

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-vLookup_backend.js v2.2.162

DFFS v4.4.5.33

• Added print button to the DFFS backend to enable printing of for example rule configurations.
• Fixed a bug where a rule with the trigger “Linked rules and functions” does not reverse when “Let linked rules evaluate the parent rule on change” is checked and the overall status of the rules in the Linked rules and functions textarea is evaluated as false.
• Fixed a bug related to undoing readonly and hidden properties on a side-by-side group of fields that is initially collapsed under an accordion heading.
• Fixed a bug where fields shown in a side-by-side configuration would be added to the top of the tab if you switched between two tabs where the same fields were used in a side-by-side configuration.

vLookup v2.2.162

• Internal change related to the print functionality in dffs configuration.

September 29, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.32
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.32
/DFFS/plugins/SPJS_utility.js v1.353

DFFS v4.4.5.32

• Changed how setting a readonly field as required made it visible/editable. Previously setting a readonly field as required would force it visible/editable, but now this will happen only if the field is not already filled in when it is set as required.
• Rules checking for SharePoint group membership has never been reversed when they were not validated to true, but this was not mentioned in the contextual help. A description has now been added.
• Fixed a bug where the “Keep checked out” banner were visible when adding attachments.

SPJS-utility.js v1.353

• Fixed a potential issue with rules triggering on radio button choice fields where the internal “getFieldValue” function could get the wrong value when the user had the Google Chrome (or other translation) plugins translate the entire page contents.

September 22, 2021

/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.31

DFFS v4.4.5.31

• Fixed another issue (also fixed one in v4.4.5.27) where an HTML snippet containing a class named ms-formtable caused the “this took forever” message to appear, and the form did not load.

SPJS-Casc v3.7.48

• Fixed a bug that causes the cascading dropdowns to never initiate when using a custom datasource in the dataSource attribute – the loading icon is just spinning.

August 30, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.30
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.30

DFFS v4.4.5.30

• Fixed an issue where using a zoom level less than 100% in the browser caused the edit button in the ribbon to disappear.
• Fixed a potential problem with “This took forever” when jQuery fails to load when using DFFS_Loader.html (v1) .
• Fixed a problem where setting a people picker as readonly when it is empty triggers an exception.

• Made a change in the code to prevent the “Cannot read property ‘hiddenBy’ of undefined” when this is caused by a full page copy-paste of a form into a rich text field in a form.
• Fixed an issue where a readonly field in a side-by-side configuration would expand in width every time you click the currently selected tab.
• Fixed an issue where the display name of the author or the editor of a list item will get an additional comma in cases where a comma is used – for example “lastname, firstname”.
• Fixed a bug in an internal function spjs.dffs.formatDate where using dddd or ddd would return the wrong day name.
• Fixed a bug where settign up a rule on a choice field with a single quote in the option name (like L’agence) failed.

SPJS-utility.js v1.352

• Fixed a bug where using the function spjs.utility.setDateFieldFromDateObject on a readonly field did set the actual field value, but did not update the readonly value so the end user could see the changed date.

Cascading Dropdowns v3.7.47

• Fixed a problem occurring when you have many thousands of options in a multiselect cascading dropdown that causes adding and removing selected items to freeze up the browser for several seconds. Please note that this change does not speed up the selection when using Internet Explorer.

May 27, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.26

• Added better error handling in the email sending to ensure that the email has a valid recipient before processing it.

DFFS_i18n.js

• Added a few strings used in the email validation error dialog.

May 04, 2021

Changed files in this release:

• This value contextual help updated to clarify the user of internal name when comparing with a people picker.
• Fixed a bug where you in the triggers “SharePoint group membership: Logged in user is member of group” and “SharePont group membership: Logged in user is NOT member of group” where using {internal_name_of_field} to pull the group name from a text field in the current item did not work.

April 25, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.22

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-ac.js v1.6.52

DFFS 4.4.5.22

• Added support for using variables in Hidden tabs, Visible tabs, Visible headings or elements and Hidden headings or elements.
• Fixed an issue with using the “customFunction” trigger when you in your custom function use spjs.dffs.triggerRule to trigger another rule. Earlier, this manually triggered rule would run as the first rule when the form loaded and not as expected after the rule using the “customFunction” trigger.
• Fixed a bug in the “The form is saved” trigger where a linked rule that returned false would prevent save of the form without any notifications. The “The form is saved” trigger is only supposed to affect “Set field value”, “Run these functions / evaluate these rules” and “Send or stop these E-Mails”.

SPJS-ac v1.6.52

• Added fieldinternalname as the second argument sent to the parseFunction in the setFields section to be able to know which field you are setting in your custom code.

April 10, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.21
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.21

DFFS v4.4.5.21

• Fixed a bug introduced in v4.4.5.19 that made getting the numberformat using the internal function getNumberFormat throw an error. This would happen if you used a rule to compare numbers.
• Changed the help icon text for Set field value in a rule to clarify the use of {currentuser:Name} when setting a people picker field.

March 21, 2021

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.20
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.20

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-vLookup_frontend.js v2.2.161
/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-vLookup_backend.js v2.2.161

DFFS v4.4.5.20

• Added an override to the delete item function when an item is opened in a modal dialog to aviod the parent frame refreshing. See Misc tab in your DFFS configuration. Please note that this users the REST API to delete the item and therefore only work in SP 2013+.

vLookup v2.2.161

• Added support for using {var:name_of_variable} in the “replace” parameter in the special configuration where the variable is an object with translations for a choice field – like this:

  var name_of_variable = {
  "Option 1": "Translated value for Option 1",
  "Option 2": "Translated value for Option 2"
  }

• Fixed a bug occurring when you in NewForm of your parent list add a vLookup child and then after it has been created opens for edit and deletes the vLookup child item using the banner button. This results in a refresh of the parent NewForm to an invalid URL like this:
  …/NewForm.aspx&sTab=0
  To prevent the refresh you must also check the new checkbox “Override delete item function when an item is opened in a modal dialog” in the Misc tab of the child form config (the config for the item being deleted).

SPJS-Casc v3.7.46

• Added support for using a multichoice people picker in the setFields “from” section like this:

  "setFields": [{
  "from": "MultichoiePeoplePicker/Name",
  "to": "MultichoiePeoplePicker",
  "parseFunction": "parseMultiPP"
  }]
  
  function parseMultiPP(a){
  var arr = [];
  if(a.results !== undefined){
  jQuery.each(a.results, function(i,user){
  arr.push(user.Name);
  });
  return arr;
  }
  }

DFFS v4.4.5.19

• Fixed a bug in an internal function “getNumberFormat” that used the wrong baseUrl when used in a form in the root site of domain (https://contoso.sharepoint.com). This could cause a form using this function to fail to load.
• Fixed a bug where after installing DFFS using a later version of the v2 installer the Edit item button in the ribbon of the DispForm might send you to an invalid URL like this: https://contoso.sharepoint.com/~site/Lists/SPJS_Casc_Demo/EditForm.aspx?ID=2
  The DFFS installer uses ~site as a placeholder for the actual site URL in the NewForm, DisplayForm and EditForm URL properties of the list and while this works fine in all other places, this button in the ribbon does not respect this setting. I tried to get Microsoft to fix it in the base SharePoint code, but had to fix it in the DFFS script instead.

SPJS-casc.js v3.7.45

• Added support for filtering on a property on a lookup or people picker field using FieldInternalName/Property in the “fielterField” property.

DFFS v4.4.5.18

• Added autocomplete on field internal name in the Custom JS textarea – thanks to Amal Vellappillil for the code snippet!
• Fixed a bug where the function dffs_PreSaveAction was triggered two times when you had emils configured in the E-Mail and Print tab that was sent when saving the form.
• Fixed a problem with a missing field in the DFFS_EMail field after updating the sendmail function a while back to add the possiblity to use Bcc. If you had not edited the config for at least one form in the site, the DFFS_Email list was missing this field and would throw an error when trying to send an email.

DFFS v4.4.5.17

• Added better error handling in the REST_Email function (used when not checking the “Use custom list with workflow to send E-Mails” checkbox in the Email and print tab).
• Fixed an error causing “Email current tab” to use the DFFS_Email list (corresponding to the checkbox “Use custom list with workflow to send E-Mails” in the Email and print tab) even if this checkbox was not checked. This email will now be sent using the REST_Email function when this checkbox is not checked.
• Added support for using {var:name_of_variable} in the Dialog title in the Email current tab functionatlity in the Email and print tab.
• Added support for specifying the location of the DFFS_Email list used to send emails from DFFS enabled forms. You find instructions on the help icon to the right of the “Use custom list with workflow to send E-Mails” checkbox in the E-Mail and Print tab in the DFFS backend configurations.
• Fixed a bug occuring when you had multiple rules configured on a choice field and had one or more rules using “Validate on = Form load” with a lower index that rules using “Validate on = Field Change”. In this case the rules triggering on field change would not trigger.
• Added a new feature to the “ok” function when opening a modal dialog using spjs.modal.add from your custom js. If your custom “ok” function returns false the dialog will not auto-close even if you don’t have set “closeOnOK”: false.

DFFS Installer v2.0.1.3

• In case you try to side load a different DFFS version and have a new DFFS installer web part page where you link to the file /SPJS/DFFS_Custom_version/installer/DFFS_Installer_v2.html and hit the “Verify folder location” button without changing the default folder from DFFS to your DFFS_Custom_version it would just refresh the page and show the same verify folder screen again, but would not give an alert telling it is the wrong folder.

SPJS-utility v1.350

• Fixed a bug where getFieldValue(“Attachments”) did not return newly added attachments that had not yet been saved.
• spjs.utility.addItem and spjs.utility.updateItem: added rootFolder parameter to enable adding list item to a folder.

vLookup v2.2.160

• Fixed a bug preventing DFFS to load when opening NewForm, DispForm or EditForm in a TEAMS channel in the web browser version of TEAMS.

DFFS v4.4.5.16

• Fixed a bug related to hiding the save button in EditForm of a document library.
• Fixed a bug introduced in the previous version where an internal function used to fill in variables in for example emails failed if you tried to pull in the value from a multichoice field and use it in the subject or body of the email. The email was not sent and you had to hit save two times to be able to save the item.
• Fixed an error with saving the form where you had to hit save two times for the form to save in this scenario: You used REST email (Use custom list with workflow to send E-Mail is unchecked) and you had a rule triggering on “The form is saved” that had two or more email templates like in the “Send or stop these E-Mails” field where one or more used the stop: prefix like this: name_of_email_template1,stop:name_of_email_template2
• Fixed a bug wit the print current tab functionality where boolean fields were out of alignment when printing the tab due to a <td> tag that was misplaced.
• Fixed a bug in processEmailTemplate where a custom send date like [today]+5 would get the offset of 5 days applied twice – sending the email in 10 days and not 5.

SPJS-casc.js v3.7.44

• Fixed a problem with using the “Autofill subsequent dropdowns when they contain only one valid option” in combination with using the :multi suffix.

SPJS-vLookup v2.2.159

• Fixed a bug occurring when a variable containing certain diacritics was used in the prefill values in child – this resulted in a “malformed url” error.

SPJS-ac.js v1.6.51

• Fixed a bug in addNewItem parameter when the addToFolder parameter was set to null. This could cause an error like “Cannot read property ‘rootFolder’ of null”.
• Removed an “Invalid value” mouseover when using allowAddNew = true in combination with isLookupInSelf = true.
• Fixed a bug where the selected value wasn’t saved when using allowAddNew = true in combination with isLookupInSelf = true and useREST = true.

DFFS Installer v2.0.1.2

• Removed DEV_VERSION items from the Review installations / reinstall tab.

Changed files in this release:
/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.14
/DFFS/js/DFFS_backend.min.js v4.4.5.14

DFFS v4.4.5.14

• Fixed a bug introduced in the previous version (v4.4.5.13) related to using ~ in rules (to reverse the result) in linked rules and functions of a rule.
• Fixed one possible issue where the save function was triggered two times when using the REST Email option to send emails (not checking the “Use custom list with workflow to send E-Mails” checkbox in the E-Mail and Print tab). Not sure if this caused any problems in real life.
• Fixed a problem with rules using the trigger “The form is saved” in combination with sending emails. In this scenario any functions in the “Run these functions / evaluate these rules” section were called two times.
• Fixed a bug where if you had multiple rules triggering on “The form is saved” and you had functions in the “Run these functions / evaluate these rules” section only the functions in the last rule processed would be run.
• Fixed an issue where when using the trigger “The form is saved” and having functions in the “Run these functions / evaluate these rules” section it would not pass the rule friendly name as a parameter to the function, but would pass “save”.
• Fixed a bug in processing JSON formatted strings in the subject or body of an email template when the field value (her represented with {Title}) contains double quotes. If you have a list item with the title “This is a test” in double quotes and use this in subject or body of the email:

  {"default": "A new item with title {Title} has been created", "1044":"Et nytt element med tittel {Title} har blitt opprettet"}

  When the email is processed, the keyword {Title} is replaced with the actual title of the list item, but because of the double quotes the JSON it is not properly parsed to get only the current language. This results in the full JSON string being used like this:

  {"default": "A new item with title "This is a test" has been created", "1044":"Et nytt element med tittel "This is a test" har blitt opprettet"}

• Fixed a bug where the variable spjs.dffs.data._DFFSID was not populated in DispForm.

/DFFS/installer/DFFS_Installer_CDN.html v1.0.0.1

DFFS_frontend_min.js v4.4.5.13

• Fixed a bug occurring when you had a rule set up to trigger only on linked rules with “If this trigger = Linked rules an functions”, you had multiple rules in the “Linked rules and functions” textarea and you were using the OR operator (|) to separate multiple rules like this:

  RuleONE,RuleTWO|RuleTHREE,RuleFour

  In this scenario, the overall rule status would incorrectly be evaluated as true if only one of the rules on either side of the | symbol was true. The correct functionality would be that either RuleONE and RuleTWO OR RuleTHREE and RuleFour had to be true for the overall rule status to be true.

  Also enhanced the functionality to let you use parentheses when evaluating multiple linked rules or functions. See the help icon in your DFFS backend configuration.

  Please note that there are some changes in this check if you use OR (the pipe character) in combination with multiple other checks for different rules. If you have used AND / OR in your linked rules you must check that if works as expected – and if necessary add parentheses to group the rules to ensure it works as you want.

• Fixed a bug where using rule index instead of rule friendlyname in linked rules did not properly trigger parent rule even if the “Let linked rules evaluate the parent rule on change” option is checked.
• Fixed a bug where using “stop and jump to” in a rule did not take linked rules into account and stopped and jumped based on the main rule only.
• Added a new link directly to the DEV config under the Enhanced with DFFS button. This will only show for the person that last saved the prod config.

DFFS_frontend.css v4.64

• Fixed a bug related to spjs.modal dialog where the dffs_dlg_overlay class had a bug that made a dialog message not appear on the center of the screen if the form was scrolled.

DFFS_backend.css v4.51

• Some small internal changes.

DFFS Installer v2.0.1.1

• Changed how this form URL is written to ensure it is relative to the site and not absolute. This is only a problem if you tried to save a site as a template and created a new site from this template. In this case, the forms would have the wrong site URL and the forms would not work unless you uninstalled and reinstalled DFFS.

DFFS Installer for CDN

• Added a new DFFS Installer that lets you use your own Azure CDN to load the DFFS files and optionally host the DFFS and vLookup config. To use this new installer you must add a web part page to your SPJS library and add a link to

   /SPJS/DFFS/installer/DFFS_Installer_CDN.html.

  Read the /SPJS/DFFS/installer/DFFS_Installer_CDN_ReadMe.txt file.

SPJS-vLookup v2.2.158

• Added support for the new DFFS CDN installer.
• Added support for using variables “{var:name_of_variable}” in special configuration in vLookup config.

Cascading Dropdowns v3.7.43

• Fixed a bug occurring when you tried to pull the values from a lookup or people picker and there where an empty lookup or people picker in the data source. This would cause the dropdown to show no selectable items.
• Fixed a bug where removing an option form a multiselect field would append it to the bottom of the list of available options and not add it in the correct alphabetically ordered location.

SPJS-ac.js v1.6.50

• Fixed a bug where using multiple searchFields did not return any matches for other than the one used as showField.
• Fixed a problem with using ;# as separator in the searchFields. This caused the string to get split by ;# and only returned the second item in the array.

DFFS frontend v4.4.5.9

• Fixed a bug in the linked rules check that caused the debug output to show as “Linked rule = undefined”. Also enhanced the functionality to let you check multiple rules using and / or. Previously a check like this:

   rule1,rule2|rule3,rule4

  would evaluate to true if rule1 and rule4 was true and rule2 or rule3 was true. This did not work as expected and I have changed the handling of it like this: rule1 and rule2 must be true, or rule3 and rule4 must be true for the overall result to be true. Please check your current linked rules setup to ensure this does not make any problems for you.

DFFS backend v4.4.5.9

• Changed help text related to linked rules.

DFFS_frontend.css

• spjs.modal dialog: dffs_dlg_overlay had a bug that made a dialog message not apprar on the center of the screen if the form was scrolled.

DFFS frontend v4.4.5.7

• Moved the dffs_ready / dffs_Ready function call (used in custom js) to ensure all rules have run before the function is called.
• Fixed a bug that triggered a save of the form if you used spjs.dffs.processEmailTemplate(“Your_Template_Id”) form custom code in NewForm or EditForm.
• Changed internal functions to reposition a modal dialog when the screen is resized.

DFFS backend v4.4.5.7

• Removed one leftover jQuery “addBack” in the function “spjs.dffs.closeDlg” that I forgot to remove when I addressed an issue with jQuery v3.x in an earlier version. The “addBack” method was removed from the jQuery code and when using jQuery v3.x with the DFFS backend it causes an error when trying to close a dialog message.
• Fixed a bug where the “Loader version” in the top of the page showed “v1” even if the DFFS installer / loader v2 was used.

DFFS_frontend.css v4.62

• Fixed a bug where the radio button and multichoice checkbox disappeared if you used the side-by-side functionality in a tab in combination with using this in Custom CSS:

  .sbs_FieldTable *{
    width:auto !important;
  }

• Added padding-left to the built in heading styles tabH1 and tabH2

SPJS-Casc.js v3.7.41

• Added “localeCompare” to the sorting of values to ensure diacritics are ignored when sorting the options in the dropdowns.

vLookup for SharePoint v2.2.157

• Fixed a somewhat confusing error message occurring if you hit the delete button in the vLookup config again after you have first deleted the config.

DFFS_JSLink.js v1.1.10 and DFFS_NoJSLink.js v1.0.6

• Added a global variable spjs_path because this is used since v4.4.3.3 in the internal functions loadDependencies and printCurrentTab.

/DFFS/installer/DFFS_Installer_v2.html v2.0.1.0

DFFS v4.4.5.5

• DFFS Installer v1 and v2 updated to fix the breaking change made by Microsoft in the latest update on Office 365 that makes all form links from a modern list view to open in the sidepanel without DFFS.
  You find a tool for fixing already installed forms here: https://spjsblog.com/2020/07/30/fix-classic-form-fallback-on-modern-lists/
• Fixed an error where the text in a multiline rich text field that was set as readonly could not be marked with the mouse and highlighted to copy the text. This was caused by a mouseup event in the SharePoint built in code that automatically moved focus to the now hidden input area when you clicked the table cell. I have fixed this by overriding this event when the field is readonly.
• Added help text in set field value for “timestamp” in DFFS backend.

/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.4

DFFS v4.4.5.4

• I have fixed a bug related to using the Remember selected tab in the Misc tab in combination with the use of Show this tab in mobile or desktop browsers. If you had only one visible tab and the previously selected tab (the one remembered by the browser from the last time you used this form) was not actually rendered in the current configuration, all fields would be shown and no tab was visible / clickable.

/DFFS/js/DFFS_frontend.min.js v4.4.5.3

DFFS v4.4.5.3

• Fixed an issue with importing a DFFS configuration in the “Export, import and restore” tab where the “This will overwrite the currently saved configuration, are you sure?” prompt had no cancel button.
• Fixed a bug related to selecting the correct tab when loading the form in cases where you had multiple hidden tabs, or when you targeted only some tabs to either mobile or desktop forms, and the first one was set as hidden in the tab configuration. This could cause all fields to show in the form, and the first visible tab in the form header was not selected.
• Fixed a bug introduced in the v4.4.5.2 that causes the form to fail to load when you use a class (prefixed with .) in Hidden headings or elements or Visible headings or elements section in a rule.
• For new licenses purchased after July 4, 2020 I have changed how the license code is validated. Previously the license was validated locally, but now it is validated based on a license file located in my Azure. Please let me know if you are NOT able to access the Internet from your site, and I’ll provide you with an offline validated license. Please note: There is still no “phone home” – it will ONLY READ a file from AZURE and it will NOT WRITE anything back. The reason for the change is for me to be able to disable a license if for example the license is expired and the maintenance fee has not been paid.

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-AC v1.6.49

DFFS v4.4.5.2

• DFFS Backend: Fixed a bug occurring when cloning a rule with configured “Set field value” using radio choice buttons (for setting a choice field). When you cloned a rule, the name of the radio-checkbox-group was not properly reset so clicking one of the checkboxes in the new cloned rule would clear any selection made in the previous rule (the one you cloned it from). If you reloaded the configuration, the name of the radio-checkbox-group would be unique and the proper selection could be made.
• Added class to ms-formtable (dffs_newform, dffs_dispform or dffs_editform) to identify the form type for use in CSS selectors only for some form types.
• Using the above form identifier class I have fixed a problem with aligning tooltip in a side-by-side configuration where you have hidden the formlabel in DispForm.
• Fixed a bug with hiding a heading, html section or a custom table row by group-id in the Hidden headings or elements section in a rule. This stopped working after a previous change a few versions back.
• Fixed a bug introduced in v4.4.4.24 related to the internal variable spjs.dffs.data._DFFSID that affected the function “getPendingEmails” and caused the stop:email_template_name to fail to stop the email.
• Made one change when writing an email to the DFFS_EMail list and now appends the current list guid to the Title field. You can use this in a custom FLOW if you need a reference to the list guid.
• Added new trigger: Azure Active Directory (Azure AD): Logged in user is member of group that can be used on SharePoint Online to check for membership in an AD-group (direct and nested). This new feature uses the Microsoft Graph API.

DFFS_JSLink.js v1.1.8

• Replaced $ with jQuery to fix an intermittant loading issue. Please note that this is still not the recommended installation menthod.

SPJS-vLookup v2.2.156

• Fixed a bug with the close tooltip dialog by clicking the X and also made a change to use the spjs.modal when clicking the tooltip icon.
• Fixed a bug occurring in SharePoint 2010 related to the attachment row not having a “fieldinternalname” property.

SPJS-AC v1.6.49

• Added option to specify an array of user groups in the chooseFromUserGroup parameter.

DFFS v4.4.5.0

• Added support for mobile devices by zooming in and focusing on the form when you use a mobile browser (or emulate a mobile device in Chrome). You find a new tab “Mobile” in DFFS backend where you can turn on mobile support for each form. This currently default OFF. I might change the default setting to ON in a later version after receiving some more feedback on the solution. On every tab you can now select target: both, desktop or mobile, but existing forms will also work in a mobile browser without modifications, but these changes are made when opening any DFFS enabled form in a mobile device:
  – All fields are show in one column with field label above field body.
  – Side-by-side is skipped.
  – The Enhanced with DFFS link is not shown.
  – If you have only one tab in a mobile form, the tab row is automatically hidden.
• Added a new setting in the Misc tab to let you hide the form menu banner when opening a form in a mobile browser. Please note that if you use multiline rich text fields you must not hide it because you will loose the RTE controls.
• Changed the style of radio buttons and checkboxes to match the style of the boolean slider.
• Changed the icon to the left of the Attachment field used to add an attachment when the field is included in a tab from a + to a paperclip. Also made the label “Attachment” clickable so you don’t need to click the icon directly.
• Added a new setting in the Misc tab to force attachments to open in a new tab.
• Added a missing translation for LCID 2070 (Portuguese) in an internal function to support getting the value of a boolean field in DispForm as a boolean value.
• Fixed a problem with getting the value from a boolean field in DispForm (for use with custom code or rules). This bug was introduced when the slider for boolean fields was introduced in DFFS v4.4.4.26.
• Fixed an intermittent bug in a people picker field set as readonly on form load that caused the readonly label to show as empty even if the field was set. This happened because the field wasn’t always fully rendered when the rule triggered.
• Fixed a bug in the automatic check in of a form using the DFFS checkout functionality when a user opens EditForm, but hits cancel when the form was opened in a dialog. This is done by hiding the close dialog button to force the user to use cancel button to back out and cancel checkout. This cancel button has also been modified to ensure it checks the item back in before closing the dialog. Please note that if the user uses the navigation buttons in the outer / top webpage it will not automatically cancel the checkout of the item.
• In the Cascading dropdown tab: Added help text:
  If you are setting up multiple cascading dropdowns with the same datasource / list, you must include the “Comma separated list of fields in the lookup list” fields from ALL your cascading dropdowns in the first one you configure. This is because the first one will be the “master” and it needs to pull in the values for all fields in the datatable for use with the different instances.
• Moved the Password up to the top of the Misc tab for better visibility.
• Fixed an intermittent problem with getting the “Edit item” button text localized in DispForm.
• Fixed a bug in email current tab where you had a heading of a html section > it would fail with “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘disp’ of undefined”.
• Fixed a bug in side-by-side where a field already hidden by a rule would be made visible again if you changed to another tab where it was also in a side-by-side configuration.

SPJS-utility v1.347

• Readonly hyperlinks now open in a new tab by default.

vLookup v2.2.155

• Fixed wrong tooltip in “Edit item link visible in” section in vLookup configurator.
• Changed edit / view icons to match the style of Fluent UI / UI Fabric icons.
• Added URL parameter vLookupView=1 and vLookupEdit=1 to the URL when opening an item with the view and edit button in a vLookup table to let you set up rules in DispForm and EditForm of the vLookup child item based on the link that is being clicked.
• Fixed localization of the View item and Edit item links in the vLookup table.

Casc v3.7.40

• Added back the warning if you had multiple instances of cascading dropdowns and not all fields were added to the first instance “Comma separated list of fields in the lookup list” section because this went missing a few revisions ago.
• Fixed an alignment problem with the tooltip and required star placeholder if the first tab in your DFFS form used side-by-side settings with the cascading dropdowns.
• Fixed an alignment problem with the tooltip and required star placeholder if the label is hidden in the sbs-settings.
• Added automatic stripping of illegal linefeeds from the source data that are added by an integration writing multiline data to a single line of text field.

SPJS-utility v1.346

• Fixed an issue with getFieldValue on a boolean field in DispForm related to the boolean slider introduced in DFFS v4.4.4.26.

DFFS_Installer_v2.html

• Added missing file DFFS_i18n.js to the DFFS_Loader_v2.html file created by the DFFS installer v2. This file is used for translations for spjs.dffs.formatDate. This file was by mistake left out of DFFS installer v2 form the beginning.

DFFS v4.4.4.32

• Fixed an error causing the form to fail to load when you use the built in class “sbs_Field” in custom HTML in a HTML section.
• Tried to ensure a people picker value inserted in a HTML Section or a Table row with {{name_of_people_picker}} doesn’t show as empty on form load by inserting a delay in the execution of the function.
• Fixed a bug where a rule triggering on change of a date and time field did not trigger when you used the date picker (by clicking the calendar icon) and you had a tooltip icon on the field.
• Fixed a bug where when comparing two date fields and you changed the date on the date field you were comparing with would get an error in the console like: Uncaught TypeError: spjs.dffs.triggerOnChange is not a function and the rule would not properly evaluate.
• Fixed a bug with rules triggering on a radio button choice field in a list based on the Calendar list template. For some reason this list template uses another format on the HTML when rendering a radio button in the form. When a rule is validated and checks the “value” of a radio button in this list it returns ctl00, ctl01, ctl02 and so on, and not the actual text value shown in the label (like in other lists based on another template). This caused a rule triggering on a radio button to fail to compare the selected value with the trigger value from the rule.
• Fixed a bug where the Enhanced with DFFS link below the form did not show when DFFS first was installed in a site and no config list was found in this current site. The link Direct to Backend to the right of the Uninstall DFFS button in the DFFS installer still brought you to the DFFS backend config and as soon as the config list was created the Enhanced with DFFS link reappeared. Please note that if you use the DFFS Installer APP you don’t see the Direct to Backend link and had to manually edit the URL and append GoToBackend=1 like this …/NewForm.aspx?GoToBackend=1 to enter setup and create the config list the first time.

DFFS_Installer_v2.html v2.0.0.12

• Changed the location of the optional DFFS_License.txt file from /DFFS/loader/DFFS_License.txt to /DFFS/installer/DFFS_License.txt as this is more correct logically. This file is not actually loaded in each form as indicated by storing it in the loader folder, but is loaded in the installer and included in the /DFFS/Loader/DFFS_Loader_v2.html file when you hit the Update loader file in the first tab of the DFFS installer v2. Also changed so the content of the file is loaded every time you enter the DFFS Installer and not only the first time you install DFFS. This means you can update the license in this file at any time. The file DFFS_License.txt is not included in the default DFFS package so if you add it with your license code, it will persist when you update DFFS and overwrite all files in the DFFS folder.

SPJS-casc v3.7.38

• Fixed a bug where the list of options in the first dropdown may be missing some options when the datasource has more than 5000 items and you have more than one set of cascading dropdowns created from the same datasource.

SPJS-AC v1.6.48

• Fixed a bug occurring when using the settings “useREST”: false and “preloadData”: false, you type in multiple search words separated with a space and you have more hits by the first word than the “rowLimit”. In this case the list of available options might only match the first search word and not all of them – leaving out the best matched items.

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-vLookup_backend.js v2.2.152

DFFS v4.4.4.31

• Changed the code beautifier added in v4.4.4.24 because it didn’t always format the code correctly. The new one is based on this code: https://github.com/beautify-web/js-beautify. Please note that there is a new subfolder “beautify” added to the DFFS folder and that you must enter the DFFS installer page and hit “Update loader file” in the Modify the loader file tab to be able to use it in your DFFS forms.
• Fixed a bug where a heading that is collapsed in an accordion on other heading will be made visible if you toggle the heading accordion even if a rule has hidden the heading.
• Fixed a bug where you got a message “The DFFS configuration hasn’t been loaded with the default loader and cannot be edited.” when using the “Direct to backend” link from the DFFS installer. This bug was introduced in v4.4.4.30.
• Added support for using ~ to prefix the function name when using the trigger “Custom JavaScript function” and you want the rule to evaluate as true when the function actually return false.

vLookup v2.2.152

• Added support for 12-hour format in the Special configuration textarea for date fields: {“dateFormat”:”MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss”} – (lower case hh).

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-vLookup_frontend.js v2.2.151
/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-vLookup_backend.js v2.2.151

DFFS v4.4.4.30

• Fixed a bug with the “Saving configuration…” message not going away after creating a restore point.
• Fixed a bug where when using line-wrapping in Custom JS makes the bottom of the screen overflow so you cannot reach the bottom lines.
• Fixed a bug where the use of {{people_picker_name}} in HTML did not always insert the people picker name on form load in EditForm because of the asynchronous rendering of the people pickers.
• Fixed a bug with Check out functionality (in DFFS Misc tab) where an item that was checked out to one person would incorrectly be checked in again if another person tried to access it and got the alert “This item is checked out…”. Also made some changes to the functionality that automatically checked an item back in if a user opened it (and checked it out) but cancelled out of the form instead of saving it.
• Added new options in the Read-only fields section in the Misc tab to let the user choose styling of the readonly fields. You can chose between border, gray background, shaded background and custom style.

vLookup v2.2.151

• Fixed a bug where the “Show all” button was missing.

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-vLookup_frontend.js v2.2.149
/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-vLookup_backend.js v2.2.149

DFFS v4.4.4.28

• Fixed a bug preventing Display this message in a rule to show in a readonly field.
• When saving the configuration and getting a validation error – for example if you had duplicate heading ids – the “Saving, please wait” overlay did not go away.

vLookup v2.2.149

• Small internal function changes.

SPJS-Casc v3.7.37

• Added new option in the cascading dropdown configuration Set field values. Use this for pulling additional field values from the cascading dropdown list when you have completed the cascading dropdown selection.

Use this format:

[{"from":"Lookup_list_field","to":"This_list_field","parseFunction":""}]

If you want to modify the value before setting it in the form you can specify the name of your custom function in the parseFunction. This custom function must be added to your Custom JS in the current form in this format:

function myParseFn(val){
// do something with val here
return val;
}

If you change your selection in the cascading dropdowns, the setFields will be reapplied. If you clear the selected value the setFields will also be cleared.

Please note that this new feature will only work when using single choice cascading dropdowns.

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-Casc.js v3.7.36

DFFS v4.4.4.27

• Fixed a bug with side-by-side where the required field indicator (the red star) was not shown.
• Added a new placeholder for the required star and the tooltip icon for all fields to ensure it is positioned consistently. The default layout is [Field label][required star][tooltip icon]. To switch position like this: [Field label][tooltip icon][required star] you can add this to your Custom CSS:

.dffs_req_and_tt {
flex-direction:row-reverse;
}

• Fixed a bug occurring when using side-by-side in combination with Hide the dropdowns when they have no available options in cascading dropdowns that caused the second dropdown to not show the first time you selected an option in the first dropdown.
• Fixed bug with Attachments when trying to set as required, readonly or hidden in a rule the action would not be applied. These bugs were most likely introduced in v4.4.4.24.
• Added slider / toggle to the boolean field SPFieldRecurrence in a calendar list.

DFFS_frontend.css v4.57

• Added some new styles for the new required star and tooltip icon placeholder.
• Added shaded background on the built in CSS classes tabH1 and tabH2.

SPJS-Casc.js v3.7.36

• Fixed a bug occurring when using side-by-side in DFFS in combination with Hide the dropdowns when they have no available options that caused the field label to show even if the dropdown was hidden.

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-Utility.js v1.345

DFFS v4.4.4.26

• Fixed a bug occurring when you use headings in a side-by-side configuration. On first render, the headings would show, but when changing tabs they would disappear.
• Fixed a problem with HTML section not being added to the side-by-side configuration even if the correct SBS-Index was used. I’m actually not sure when this error was introduced because I haven’t had any reports – I just noticed when testing it.
• Boolean fields now show as toggle / slider also when readonly and in DispForm. The color is slightly modified when the field is in read mode: gray dot in the toggle and no pointer cursor.

vLookup v2.2.148

• Fixed bug Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘fieldData’ of undefined when using vLookup in a list view. This error was introuduced in the previous version.
• Made a change so the spinner now shows immediately when selecting a tab with a vLookup.

SPJS-utility.js v1.345

• Fixed a bug in an internal function used to update the value of a readonly field after the method for setting fields readonly changed in v4.4.4.24.

DFFS v4.4.4.25

• Added autocomplete to the ACE code editor for Custom JS. You can toggle this off from the menu bar over the editor if you don’t like it.
  Added support for remembering Toggle show invisible characters and Toggle autocomplete over sessions. I could unfortunately not get the folding and the linewrap to work the same way so these will have to be toggled every time you need them.
• Added support for sorting the fields in the Fields tab in DFFS configuration by clicking the column headers.
• Fixed a bug occurring when using the Switch to NewForm, Switch to DispForm or Switch to EditForm in DFFS configuration and you opt to save the current changes. In this case, the current form would be saved, but you would not be redirected to the selected form and the Saving configuration for… dialog would get stuck so you had to refresh the page.

DFFS v4.4.4.24

• Ace code editor: Added theme selector and toolbar buttons for fullscreen, toggle line wrap, toggle fold all code, toggle show whitespace, format code, show keybindings and go to line.
• DFFS Backend: Changed how tooltips are shown. They are now opened in a dialog, and closes when clicking the backdrop or the X in the top right corner.
• Changed unescape to decodeURIComponent in getPageId to better support diacritics in the URL. I strongly recommend creating lists and sites with only alphanumeric characters (A-Z and 0-9) and then rename it after it has been created to create your desired name. This way the URL will be clean without escaped characters.
• Removed use of fields object and now addresses the fields by their ID (dffs_FieldInternalName).
• Changed Boolean fields Yes/No to show as toggle / slider buttons.
• Updated method for setting fields readonly to prevent the width of form label and form body table column fields shifting width when toggling readonly fields.
• Send tab by email: Added icon to remove additional receivers of the email if you have added to many. Also added option to specify the title of the send form by email dialog.
• Added option to expand or collapse all emails in the E-Mail and Print tab.
• Changed the internal function PreSaveItem t fix a bug where if the first attempt to save an item fails because of an invalid people picker or an invalid date (form tries a postback and returns with an error on one or more fields), the next save attempt will NOT check mandatory fields (set in DFFS rules). Also, moved the set field values on save (set in a rule triggering on the form is saved) up over the check for mandatory fields to let a rule fill in mandatory fields before it checks mandatory fields.
• Made one small change to the generation of the internal _DFFSID and _vLookupID values to ensure the corresponding field is ready before it is written.

DFFS Installer v2.0.0.10

• Changed the installer to ensure the installer file is loaded from the correct folder. If you are side-loading another version of DFFS you must now set up a separate web part page for the custom version installer and link to your custom DFFS version by specifying the folder the files are located in – for example like this for a folder named “DFFS_2020-03-10”: /SPJS/DFFS_2020-03-10/installer/DFFS_Installer_v2.html. The path will be validated to ensure it is correct when you hit save. This change means I have removed the Custom DFFS folder you had in previous versions.

DFFS_backend.css v4.49

• Some new styles related to ACE toolbar buttons and for readonly fields.

SPJS-Utility.js v1.344

• Using spjs.utility.getListByUrlName on a document library returned the path property with /Lists/ – this is fixed.
• Removed the spjs.utility.data.fields object (used internally).
• Changed how getFieldValue and setFieldValue identifies the textbox of an enhanced rich text field to fix an error occurring in some rare cases.

vLookup v2.2.147

• Fixed a bug where the CAML will be corrupted if you use a variable that contains < or > in “Write your own CAML-query”.
• Removed spjs.vLookup.fields object (used internally).

SPJS-AC v1.6.47

• Removed fields object (used internally).

SPJS-Casc v3.7.35

• Removed fields object (used internally).
• Added option to use {var:name_of_variable} in GUID or display name of the list where the values are found and BaseUrl of the list where the values are found.

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-ac.js v1.6.46
/DFFS/installer/DFFS_Installer_v2.html v2.0.0.9

DFFS v4.4.4.23

• Fixed a bug in the debug output on linked rules that were prefixed with ~. The output of the linked rules might be wrong (true <> false), but the overall validation of the rule would still be correct.
• Added toggle folding in Custom JS and Custom CSS.
• Added a check to catch a scenario where a rule uses the Run these functions / trigger these rules section to call a function with the same name as the rule itself. This is to prevent a loop in case the function does not exist because this would cause the rule to re-trigger itself in an infinit loop (until the browser errors out).
• Changed Run these functions / trigger these rules to Run these functions / evaluate these rules. Previously a rule added here would be executed as if it was true, but now it will be properly evaluated and run only if it is evaluated to true.

vLookup v2.2.146

• Fixed a possible issue with setting an URL parameter from Prefill values in child using your_url_key=[currentItem:field_name] or your_url_key={var:name_of_variable} where the value would be the initial value from the field or variable from when the vLookup field loaded, and not from when the button to created the child item was actually clicked (the field value or the variable could have changed).

SPJS-ac.js v1.6.46

• Fixed a bug the setFields did not properly set when using spjs.ac.setFieldValue(“FieldName”, “The value you want to set”);
• I have also made sure the search box is hidden while using spjs.ac.setFieldValue.

DFFS Installer v2.0.0.9

• Added a new column in the “Review installations” tab to show the loader version used (v1 or v2)

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-ac.js v1.6.45

DFFS v4.4.4.22

• Fixed an error in the trigger “Linked rules and functions” where you set up a rule to trigger only on other linked rules on form load. The rule would be triggered two times – one before other onload rules, and the second on it’s correct load index. The first run would be validated correctly, but the second would be validated as “false” because it was not properly identified as triggering only on other linked rules.
• Rules triggering on multi and single choice fields: added “[No selected value]” option to be able to combine selections with “empty”.

SPJS-utility v1.343

• Fixed a bug where using setFieldValue on a readonly field caused the padding in the field to be removed.

SPJS-ac.js v1.6.45

Added new option to specify the folder to add new items to when using

"allowAddNew":true

Use it like this:

"addToFolder": {"rootFolder":"/Sites/ProjcetSite/Lists/ProjectList", "folderName": "Folder A"}

• Fixed one more bug related to upgrading from an early 3.x version of DFFS.

/DFFS/plugins/spjs-vLookup_backend.js v2.2.145

DFFS v4.4.4.18

• Fixed a regression bug related to using DFFS forms with no tabs configured. This caused an error “Cannot read property sCookie of undefined”.
• Fixed wrong date format for LCID 2070 – Portuguese (Portugal)  when using spjs.utility.getDateFieldAsDateObject.
• Reversed a change made in v4.4.4.0 that changed the order which headings, HTML sections and custom table rows were rendered. The 4.4.4.0 change was made to speed up the loading of large forms with a lot of headings and HTML sections by only rendering the sections when that tab was shown. This caused a Custom JS instruction trying to locate a specific HTML tag by id or classname to fail because the sections had not yet been created. To ensure backwards compatibility I have decided to reverse this so all headings, HTML and custom table rows now are added to the form before Custom JS is loaded.
• Added note to self textarea in help tab in DFFS backend.

vLookup v2.2.145

• Added support for passing field value in URL like this in the prefill values in child:

  from: your_url_key=[currentItem:field_name]
  to: {URL}

SPJS-casc.js v3.7.33

• Tried to fix an error “Cannot read property ‘toLowerCase’ of undefined” occurring when upgrading from an older version.

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-utility.js v1.342
/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-ac.js v1.6.44

DFFS v4.4.4.17

• Changed the error handling for rules related to the error message There is a type mismatch between the current value…  by converting it automatically to string If the current value is a string.
• Fixed a bug in the Keep checked out label – leave empty to hide this option from the end user when this was left empty. It should have hidden the banner entirely, but showed the banner without content above the form.
• Fixed bug where a rule triggering on Linked rules and functions continued to trigger even if it was set as disabled.
• Fixed a bug where a rule set to trigger only on load in some cases still fired when the field it was attached to was changed.
• Fixed an error in the error message showed in DFFS Backend when a field was deleted. You should be able to click the error message to open the tab or rule, but this broke in an earlier update.
• When using the Misc tab Save and redirect functionality the redir url will get a query string parameter like this: dffsRedir=1
• Changed Send or stop these E-Mails to work when not using the default reversing of a rule. By default a rule set to send and email will automatically remove the email if the rule is reversed. If for example a Yes/No field set to Yes, the email would be prepared for sending. If the same field was set to No, the email was removed. I have now added support for using two rules on the same field (with No reversing of this rule checked) to let you use name_of_email in the Send or stop these E-Mails fild in one rule, and stop:name_of_email in Send or stop these E-Mails in another to stop the email from being sent when the form saves. In previous versions the stop:name_of_email would only stop emails already set to send on a due date from NewForm or a previous edit of the item.
• Fixed a bug in DFFS backend when using the Development mode option (click the green banner in the top of the page in edit mode) in combination with the DFFS installer v2. If you clicked the Open a new window to test your configuration link, it would not open the form, but instead open the DFFS installer page.

vLookup v2.2.144

• Add new folder wasonly available for doc lib – fixed so you can add also in a list.
• Fixed so you can use {currentsite}/subsite in the BaseUrl input.

SPJS-AC v1.6.43

• Fixed an error when trying to filer by a date field date in combination with useREST:false and using an array of objects (as specified in the user manual) and not an object in the orderBy parameter.

SPJS-Utility.js v1.342

• Changed spjs.utility.getListByUrlName so it brings back the choice field options in the fields object.

DFFS Installer v2.0.0.8

• Fixed a bug preventing the Install custom version by specifying the folder name here when installing DFFS in a list from working when using the v2 installer. I have also changed the name of this field to Custom DFFS folder.

/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-utility.js v1.140
/DFFS/plugins/SPJS-ac.js v1.6.42

DFFS v4.4.4.16

• Fixed a bug where the value is not set when using the Set field value in a rule on an empty lookup column, people picker field or a managed metadata field and have checked the Only if the field is empty checkbox.
• Fixed an error in the checkout feature where the ribbon cancel button was not hidden, and clicking this would not undo the checkout. Also, navigating away from the form did not undo the checkout. Both these issues have not been addressed by using beforeunload to detect the navigation.
• Added support for tooltip in heading and HTML sections. You find this in the bottom of the Tooltip tab (renamed from Field tooltip).
• Added new validate with custom function trigger on text and number fields. This can be used to show a validation message below the field. If the validation is not OK, the user will not be able to save the form. Look at the help icon on the Operator for details in how to set up the function in Custom JS.
• Fixed some issues with using the setting Use cookie to remember selected tab in the misc tab. The Click here to clear the session cookie did not work when you used the v2 installer and when using the Use cookie to remember selected tab in combination with a rule triggering on Selected Tab Index / Tab unique ID the rule would not trigger. If you had a similar rule triggering on the first tab, this would be triggered because the first tab would be selected before switching to the “cookie set tab”. I have changed from using a cookie to useing localStorage and removed link to clear cookie in misc tab.
• Fixed a console error related to getPendingEmails when sending emails with REST and not DFFS_Email. This caused no problems other than a log to the console.
• Changed DFFS_frontend.css to minimize the use of !important to make it easier to override built in DFFS styling in Custom CSS.

DFFS Installer v2.0.0.6

• Added support for initially putting the license in a text file located here: /SPJS/DFFS/loader/DFFS_License.txt. Please note that ONLY the license code string must be added to this file. This will prefill the license code in the License code field in the setup page of the DFFS Installer. Please note that this requires the DFFS installer v2.0.0.6 or above and the Update loader file button must be clicked to write it to the proper location. This will be a way of preloading the license if you have a company license and want to make a template out of the SPJS document library to ease the setup process in new site collections.

vLookup v2.2.142

• Fixed a bug sometimes occurring when using a number field as input in the Build query and this number is returned with a thousand separator.
• Fixed a but preventing folders to show as expandable folders when using folders in a list.
• Changed so Add new items to this folder can be used for lists also.

spjs-utility.js v1.340

Fixed a bug occurring in spjs.utility.updateListItem when using it in a root site and the server URL is not a proper host header but on the format servername:port.

SPJS-ac.js v1.6.42

• Fixed a bug where if the field used in orderBy was not used as viewfield it would not actually sort the items on this field.
• Added support for using parsefunction in orderBy. Here is an example:

{
“fin”: “Created”,
“ascending”: true,
“numeric”: true,
“parseFunction”: “parseDate”
}

function parseDate(str) {
var r = str;
if (str !== null) {
r = new Date(str.split(” “).join(“T”)).valueOf();
}
return r;
}

DFFS v4.4.4.15

• Fixed an error occurring when trying to use a managed metadata field as a trigger.

DFFS Installer v2.0.0.5

• Fixed a problem occurring when updating the installer to a new version. Because this requires that the DFFS_Installer is “saved” to update the script file links it would previously not open the DFFS backend when you tried to edit a DFFS config until you had visited the installer file directly and hit “Update loader file”. This is now automatically detected and it will let you update the loader file and then redirect you to the DFFS backend config you were trying to access.

SPJS-utility.js v1.339

• Fixed a bug in getFieldValue occurring when setting the attachment field as ready only when you have documents with single quote in the file name.

SPJS AC v1.6.41

• Fixed a small bug where the CSS class indicating that the selection is valid (showing a green outline when hovering over the field) is removed when using the spjs.ac.setFieldValue even if the field is successfully set.
• Added a check for callback functions added in Custom JS. If you like to run some code when a valid, invalid or empty value is added, you can add these functions to your Custom JS:

function spjs_ac_validSelectionCallback(fin,val){
  console.log("valid:");
  console.log(fin+":"+val);
}
function spjs_ac_invalidSelectionCallback(fin,val){
  console.log("invalid:");

DFFS v4.4.4.10

• Fixed an issue with using {inject} in custom js where the file was cached in the browser.

DFFS Installer v2.0.0.3

• Fixed a but occurring when the installer was used in a subsite. The path in the site select was showing the root site and not the current subsite – this made selecting the current stubsite impossible.
• Fixed a bug where the plugins for ac, casc, lookup and rm was not loaded when editing DFFS configs installed with the new installer.
• Added the file /DFFS/JSLink/Setup.html for use with existing JSLink installations. Please note that this is NOT the recommended installation method and this file is only added for backwards compatibility with older installations.

DFFS v4.4.4.7

• Changed the position of the tooltip icon to place it between the formlabel and the star indicating a requried field.

DFFS_frontend.css v4.51

• Changed the style of the customTooltip placeholder. This CSS is used with JavaScript to position the icon between the field label and the star indicating a requried field.

vLookup v2.2.138

• Fixed a bug where a folder with an apostrophe causes any subfolders to fail to open when clicking it.

SPJS-utility.js v1.337

• Fixed an error in getFieldValue_SPFieldDateTime – Cannot read property ‘length’ of undefined. This occurred in some cases where you had Custom JS using getFieldValue on a date picker on load.

SPJS-ac v1.6.37

• Fixed a problem with the help text not positioning correctly when using the Freeze the tab row when the form is scrolled setting in the Misc tab.

DFFS installer v2.0.0.0

New installer – writes absolute script tags and does no longer dynamically load the scripts. This fixes some issues with for example duplicate tab where the scripts won’t load.

Please note that you must set up a new web part page and link to the new /SPJS/DFFS/installer/DFFS_installer_v2.html file and then uninstall and reinstall DFFS in the forms using this new installer. You can keep both installers side-by-side and upgrade one form at the time.

This new installer also doubles as DFFS backend so hitting the Enhanced with DFFS button in a form installed with DFFS_Installer_v2 will take you to the DFFS_installer_v2 page and show the DFFS backend configuration.

/DFFS/plugins/spjs-vLookup_backend.js v2.2.136

DFFS v4.4.4.6

• Added a new trigger: Group membership: Can view membership in group. The rule will check if the user is member of the group directly or indirectly by being member of an AD-group added to the SharePoint group.
  Please note: For this to work, the SharePoint group must be configured with Who can view the membership of the group? = Group Members. Also, it will not work properly for administrators because they have the rights to view membership in the group even if they are not actually a member. This trigger only works for SharePoint 2013+.
• Fixed a bug with checking linked rules.
  Previously it worked like this:
  Lets say you have two rules: A and B. Rule A triggers on the Approver field not being empty, and also uses a custom function as linked rule.The main trigger of rule A is evaluated to TRUE while the linked function evaluates to FALSE. This means rule A will not be run. Rule B triggers on change of the Approver field, and has rule A as a linked rule. Rule B will evaluate to TRUE on change of the Approver field, and when checking the status of the linked rule A will return TRUE because the main trigger on rule A evaluated to TRUE – even if the linked function is evaluated to FALSE.The fix changes it so the status of any linked rules of the linked rule you are currently checking will be take into account.
• Fixed check for linked rules when saving – any linked rules that are evaluated to FALSE will stop the save process.
• Fixed a bug introduced in v4.4.4.0 where you cannot trigger a rule set with No trigger (must be triggered manually) from Custom JS.

SPJS-vLookup v2.2.136

• Added ItemEditURL as option in prefill values in child.

SPJS-rm v2.4.5

• Fixed a problem with getting item id when using vLookup and passing ID in the URL.

DFFS v4.4.4.5

• Fixed an error occurring only in IE 8: “Expected identifier”.
• Fixed a problem with calculating the tooltip width when using short tooltips. If the new aspect ratio doesn’t work as you like, you can also override the tooltip width by wrapping the tooltip text in a div like this:

  <div style="width:250px">This is a tooltip text</div>

• Fixed an error where adding two or more headings directly after one another caused these headings to disappear.

DFFS v4.4.3.64

• Fixed a bug with using multiple rules triggering on change / change from initial value on a multichoice field. I had fixed this in the previous release, but I ended up reusing / overwriting a variable when I tidied up the code before releasing v4.4.3.63 – with the result that only the last rule on this field triggered.
• Changed the License tab in DFFS backend to NOT show the license code when this is supplied in the DFFS_loader.html file.

vLookup v2.2.128

• Fixed a bug causing variables referred using {var:name_of_variable} returned an escaped string.

• Changed the Save and create restore point functionality to just Create restore point. It will no longer save the current form config, but only crate a restore point of the current changes.
• Added a new suffix for use in the Load these files before executing the Custom JS textarea. Use {inject} to have the file contents perpended to the Custom JS on page load (in frontend) to ensure it is directly accessible from within Custom JS.
• Fixed a bug with the new Group ID functionality where you could not use an underscore in the Group ID.
• Rewritten the functionality for handling rules triggering on change of a field because it didn’t behave consistently.

DFFS v4.4.3.38

• Added buttons in the “Find in rules” section to turn on or off debug on the highlighted rules.
• Added support for catching manually called rules calling on a tab or rule with incorrect name.
• Fixed an issue where using the setting in both the tabs and rules to hide the save or edit buttons. Previously, clicking a tab would override the button visibility set by a rule. I have now changed this so a setting in a rule will override the setting in a tab.
• Fixed an error introduced in the previous version where using a variable in an email like this: {var:nameOfVariable} would fail to set the value in the email.
• Added support for using field values using {FieldInternalName} or variables like {var:nameOfVariable} for one time update, or {{var:nameOfVariable}} for live update on all variable changes in the tab name.
• Fixed a bug where a tab hidden by the “Which groups can see this tab?” selector in the tab would cause an error if the hidden tab was the first tab in the form.

DFFS_frontend.css v4.43

• Fixed the color of the disabled textarea in Field tooltip and Field CSS section.
• Added a min-width setting of 785px to the formtable to fix some side-by-side alignment issues. In case this causes problems for your custom css, add this to override it:

table.ms-formtable{
 min-width:[your preferred number of pixels]px!important;
}

SPJS-utility.js v1.319

• Added support for setting a multilookup to empty by using setFieldValue(“FieldInternalName”,””);
• Fixed a bug in setFieldValue for people pickers where trying to set a multiselect people picker to empty using setFieldValue(“FieldInternalName”,””) only removed one user.
• Fixed a bug in setFieldValue for people pickers where setting a readonly people picker to empty using setFieldValue(“FieldInternalName”,””) did not update the readonly value.
• Added a function for getting the date from a date and time picker as a date object in your custom code. Use it like this: spjs.utility.getDateFieldAsDateObject(“FieldInternalName”);
• Added a function for setting a date and time picker from a date object in your custom code. Use it like this: spjs.utility.setDateFieldFromDateObject(“FieldInternalName”,date_object,offsetDays);

vLookup v2.2.118

• Fixed some minor errors in the HTML structure of the vLookup table.
• Added new setting to show the add new item / folder button above or below the vLookup table.
• Added “Number” to the Field type select in the “Build query” section.
• Fixed the callback / event “vlookupChildViewOrEditCallback” to include the “result” of the dialog. It returns 0 if it was canceled / closed, and 1 if it was saved. Use as described in the use manual.

SPJS-AC.js v1.6.18

• Fixed an issue where setting the “searchFields” to [] would cause an error. I have now added a fallback to use the “showField” in case the “searchField” is not set.

vLookup v2.2.105

• Fixed an issue where the “Add new” button wasn’t clickable unless you hit the text inside the button (it’s not really a button element).
• Changed the order of the “Save”, “Cancel” and “Delete” buttons in the vLookup configuration.
• Fixed a bug where the “vLookupPresetFromUrlDone” function would not be called when setting a lookup column in a vLookup child item added from DispForm or EditForm of a parent form.
• Fixed a bug where the upload button you see when hovering over a folder in a vLookup table had an error in the url to the Upload.aspx page if the folder was not in the root of the document library.

DFFS v4.4.3.6

July 17, 2017

DFFS v4.4.3.5

July 10, 2017

DFFS v4.4.3.3

var spjs_path = "/Sites/YourSite/SPJS/DFFS";

June 25, 2017

Please note that the user manual hasn’t been updated yet. All changes are listed below, but I’ll do my best to update the manual within a few days.

DFFS v4.4.3.0 (June 25, 2017)

• Rebuilt the triggers for choice and multichoice fields to show a list of options to select from instead of typing in the options in a plain text field. Because you select the actual choice options I have removed all other operators than “is equal to”, “is changed from initial value” and “is changed”. Please note that this might require that you redo the rules triggering on multichoice fields.
• Added option to test load a new version of DFFS by putting the new version in a folder named “DFFS_NEXT” in the SPJS library, and adding “DFFS_NEXT=1” to the URL when loading the DFFS form like this (please note that this will only work when upgrading beyond v 4.4.3.0 ):

/sites/Your_Site/Lists/DFFS_TestList/NewForm.aspx?DFFS_NEXT=1

• Fixed an issue with space in the URL being encoded as %2520 (because it was escaped two times) when using {viewItemLink}  and {editItemLink} in DFFS emails.
• Fixed an incompatibility when upgrading from an older version where you would get an error in the console like “Cannot read property ‘join’ of undefined” related to “objArr.accordion”.
• Fixed an issue with using the “Switch form” buttons in DFFS backend and having duplicate heading IDs. In this case you would be redirected, but the form would NOT save – effectively loosing current changes.
• Added support for creating restore points. You can later browse restore points and any deleted configurations to restore then into one of the forms in the same list. This functionality has been put in a new tab “Export, import and restore” along with the Export and import functionality that has been moved from the Misc tab. Please note that you can only restore configurations saved after upgrading to v4.4.3.0.
• When you press Delete in the DFFS backend to delete a config, it is backed up and you can restore it later from the “Export, import and restore” tab.
• Fixed an issue with triggering on an empty people picker in SP 2010.
• Fixed an issue where you couldn’t disable a trigger on “The form is saved”.
• Added support for doing basic calculations in the “Set field value” section in a DFFS rule. You can use “+”, “-“, “*” and “/”. See help icon in DFFS backend.
• Changed rules for Boolean triggers to show a checkbox and not an input field. This means you no longer adds “true” or “false”, but checks or unchecks the checkbox to set the trigger value.
• Fixed an issue when you in a dialog click “Save and redirect” and then “cancel” IN THE NEW FORM . This would open a blank DispForm on save.
• Added support for redirecting from EditForm to DispForm in the Misc tab.
• Rebuilt the debug output to show color coded outputs (green = rule match, red = no match).
• Changed the parsing of variables included with {var:nameOfVariable} to strip away whitespace to prevent errors if the person editing the DFFS configuration accidently adds a whitespace.
• Changed all dialogs in DFFS backend to use a script generated alert box. If you like to use it in Custom JS you can call it like this:

spjs.dffs.alert({
    "title":"The dialog title",
    "msg":"This is the message - you can use HTML",
    "ok":function(){
       alert("You clicked the OK button - add you custom OK button code here.");
    },
    "okBtnLabel":"This is the OK button label", 
    "cancel":function(){
        alert("You clicked the Cancel button - add your custom Cancel button code here.");
    },
    "cancelBtnLabel":"This is the Cancel button label"
});

• Fixed an issue with using an empty date and time column in the “Send date” of a DFFS e-mail. This would throw an error, but will now send the e-mail right away.
• Added option to add field, heading or HTML section in-between existing fields in a TAB. Go to the “Tabs” and hover the mouse over one of the fields in the tab – notice the + below to the left. Click this plus to bring up the menu to add a new field, a heading or a HTML section below the current field.
• Added new setting for tabs where you can set “Hide this tab in” for use when cloning a form config from for example EditForm to NewForm.
• Added option to compare a date in a trigger with {Created} or {Modified}.
• Fixed an issue in Tooltips where a MUI setup with <br> in the HTML would incorrectly be translated to “\n” when loading the config in DFFS backend – this would throw an error when attempting to save an you would have to manually change it back to <br>.
• Added option in the Set field value section in a rule to set a date and time column to “now” like this:

• [today]#now

• Fixed an issue where a read-only representation of a choice column in NewForm or EditForm where you have the options set up side-by-side (in the Misc tab) would not be in the same side-by-side layout.
• Fixed a few incompatibilities with SharePoint 2007. Also updated the CEWP code for use in SP 2007 with an example on how to set the “_spPageContextInfo.pageListId” for multiple lists.
• Changed the loader and installer (local version – not the APP) to support DFFS files located in “current” site, “parent” site or “root” site.  I have changed the variable “spjs_scripts_in_current_site” to: “dffs_folder_location”. You can use “current”, “parent” or “root”.
• Updated the “local installer” to give some more information about the location of the DFFS files when installing in a list / library.
• Changed the how a custom function used in “Linked rules and functions” are handled. Previously this would only be evaluated on load, and use the result also on change. This is changed to evaluate the function on change an on load. Also, the “Rule friendly name” will be passed to the function as an argument.
• Added option to minimize all disabled rules in the top of the “Rules” tab.
• Added option to load different versions of DFFS in different lists in the same site. To do this, add a custom version of DFFS with a new folder name – like DFFS_yyyy-MM-dd to the SPJS library, and specify this folder name in the DFFS Installer (currently only the local installer has this feature). This is a great way to upgrade to a new version of DFFS one list at the time.

vLookup v2.2.98 (June 25, 2017)

spjs.vLookup.refresh("YOUR_FIN") ;

SPJS-AC v1.6.5 (June 25, 2017)

• Added support for REST queries in SP 2013+. To use REST you must set the key “useREST” to true.
• If you use REST you can add a filter in the “RESTFilter”. For example, this to get all items where Title starts with the letter “t”:

startswith(Title,'t')

You can use a function to return the filter value – for example like this:

Title eq {function:yourCustomFunction}

Then add this function in the Custom JS:

function yourCustomFunction(){
    return getFieldValue("AnotherFieldInYourForm");
}

• Please note that if you plan to filter “live” by a dynamic filter value (by for example using the value from another field as input to the filter) you can only use one field in the “searchFields” array.
• New functionality for SP 2013+ when using “useREST” and multiple “searchFields” the complete dataset will be retrieved before the field is rendered. This way your search will be faster.  If your dataset is large and it takes to long to load it, please use one “searchField” to speed it up. You can concatenate multiple search fields in one single line of text field and use this as “searchField” to speed up the search and still search in multiple columns. Unfortunately using a calculated column will NOT work due to restrictions in the SharePoint REST api. Please note: when using REST you must use this format when setting a people picker in the “setFields” section: PeoplePickerFieldName/Name.
• Fixed a bug in the autocomplete for people picker fields in SP 2007.
• Fixed a bug in re-validating a field on load in EditForm where this sometimes would fail and show a red “square” and forcing the use to reselect the item.
• Added “debug” option to the function call.

Example function call:

spjs.ac.textField({
 "applyTo":"",
 "helpText":"",
 "loadText":"", //Used with large REST datasets in combination with multiple searchFields to show a message when waiting for the data to load
 "listGuid":"",
 "listBaseUrl":"",
 "showField":"",
 "searchFields":[], // Array of fields to search in
 // Prefilter - use this OR filterREST
 "filterCAML":"", // You can use {function:yourCustomFunction} to get a "live" filter value for each search
 // Prefilter for SP 2013 and up - use this OR filterCAML
 "useREST":false,
 "filterREST":"",
 "optionDetailFields":[], // Additional fields to show in the dropdown
 "optionDetailPrefix":[], // Optional prefix for the fields in "optionDetailFields". The length of this array must be the same as "optionDetailFields".
 "enforceUniqueValues":true,
 "rowLimit":15,
 "listOptionsOnFocus":false,
 "minLengthBeforeSearch":3,
 "reValidateOnLoad":false,
 "allowAddNew":true,
 "isLookupInSelf":false,
 "addNewAdditionalFields":[],
 "multiselect":false, 
 "multiselectSeparator":"; ",
 "orderBy":[],
 "setFields":[],
 "debug":false
});

SPJS-Utility.js v1.305 (June 25, 2017)

• getFieldValue in DispForm now properly gets the HTML from a rich text field.
• Fixed an issue with setFieldValue on taxonomy where a value with a comma would incorrectly be parced as two separate entries (and fail on validation).
• Fixed an issue where setting a lookup column in a rule or using “setFieldValue” would be delayed with a setTimeout for 1500 milliseconds causing a problem when setting this lookup on pre save (the value would not always be saved).
• Added a function to get a list (to get the list GUID) by the list URL name. This function can be used like the below example. Please note that this function is asynchronous so you must call the function using the ID inside the “callback” function :

spjs.utility.getListByRootFolder(
 {
 "listBaseUrl":makeAbsUrl("/DFFS"),
 "listUrlName":"TheListURLName",
 "callback":function(list){
 console.log(list.Id);
 // Use the list.Id to call your custom function
 }
 }
);

• Fixed some incompatibilities with SharePoint 2007.

SPJS-Casc.js v3.7.6 (June 25, 2017)

• Added support for setting the multichoice selects side-by-side in the DFFS configuration tab or in custom code by adding “sideBySide”:true.
• Fixed an issue where only the first level would show when loading a cascading dropdown set with invalid options selected in EditForm.
• Added support for using a predefined array of objects as datasource for the cascading dropdowns. This would be preferable when using multiple instances of spjs-casc in the same form to avoid running the same query multiple times. To use this option, you must NOT use the DFFS tab “Cascading dropdown”, but add the function call to the Custom JS like this:

var res = spjs.utility.queryItems({"listName":"CascInitialFilterSource", "query":"<Where><IsNotNull><FieldRef Name='Title' /></IsNotNull></Where>", "viewFields":["Title", "FieldValue", "LookupValue"]});

var dataSource = res.items;

You can use a REST call if you like, but ensure the “dataSource” is an array of objects like this example:

[
 {
 "Title":"Item #1",
 "Value":"Some value"
 },
 {
 "Title":"Item #2",
 "Value":"Another value"
 }
]

Use the “dataSource” like this:

// #1
spjs.casc.init({
 "manualMode":true,
 "dataSource":dataSource,
 "lookupList":"", // not used when dataSource is defined
 "lookupListBaseUrl":"", // not used when dataSource is defined
 "lookupListFields":["Title","Value"],
 "thisListFields":["CustomField1","CustomField2"],
 "dropDownDefaultvalue":"Select...",
 "filter":{"filterField":"Title","filterValue":"YourFilterValue","operator":"eq"},
 "hideEmptyDropdowns":false,
 "autoselectSingleOption":true,
 "clearInvalidSelection":false,
 "addOwnValue":false,
 "addOwnValueMouseover":"",
 "cancelOwnValueMouseover":"",
 "debug":false
 }
);

// #2
spjs.casc.init({
 "manualMode":true,
 "dataSource":dataSource,
 "lookupList":"", // not used when dataSource is defined
 "lookupListBaseUrl":"", // not used when dataSource is defined
 "lookupListFields":["Title","Value"],
 "thisListFields":["CustomField3","CustomField4"],
 "dropDownDefaultvalue":"Select...",
 "filter":{"filterField":"Title","filterValue":"YourFilterValue","operator":"eq"},
 "hideEmptyDropdowns":false,
 "autoselectSingleOption":true,
 "clearInvalidSelection":true,
 "addOwnValue":false,
 "addOwnValueMouseover":"",
 "cancelOwnValueMouseover":"",
 "debug":false
 }
);

• Added a new option for letting the user type in their own value by canceling the dropdown select and show a text input. This option can only be used for single choice cascading dropdowns, and only when setting up a cascading dropdown in the Custom JS (the option is not available when using the “Cascading dropdown” tab in DFFS backend”). This works by removing the dropdown select for the field you select, and for all descendants of this field. This action can be reverted to restore the dropdowns. Look at the snippet below for setup instructions:

spjs.casc.init({
 ...
 ...
 "addOwnValue":true,
 "addOwnValueMouseover":"Add your own value",
 "cancelOwnValueMouseover":"Reset",
 ...
 }
);

March 12, 2017 BETA

DFFS v4.4.3.9 BETA (March 12, 2017)

This is in BETA because of new functionality and that jQuery now loads with “noConflict”.

• DFFS rules: changed the name from “And these rules or functions = true / false” to “Linked rules and functions”.
• Added support for letting “Linked rules” trigger the parent function on change. Previously a rule containing “Linked rules” would only validate on load. With this new functionality you can have a rule with a trigger where the main trigger validates to “true” on page load, but with “Linked rules” that validated to “false”. When each of the linked rules are triggered on change later on, this rule and all linked rules will be revalidated – and if all validate to true, the parent rule will be triggered.
  This new functionality must be turned on for each rule by checking “Let linked rules trigger the parent rule on change”.
• Enforced numbers only in side-by-side index.
• Allowed a-z A-Z 0-9 and _ in “Tab unique ID”, Heading and HTML section “Unique ID” and “Rule friendly name”. Previously only a-z and 0-9 was allowed.
• Added jQuery.noConflict() to the DFFS Loader to prevent errors when using other third party code that loads jQuery. This will create a separate name-space jQspjs that is used as alias for jQuery in DFFS and all plugins.
• Fixed a bug in the handling of the “DFFSID” URL parameter when sending an email form NewForm with a link to the current item. The problem only occurs in SP2013 / 2016, and will fail to load the correct item. When upgrading theses links will work as expected. Please note that the field “_DFFSID” must be indexed if your list may contain more than 5000 items.
• Fixed an inconsistency where not all calls to a custom function from a rule would pass the rule id as argument.
• Removed the padding of the selected tab in DFFS both frontend and backend (in the CSS files) to prevnet the tabs from stacking up incorrectly when using zoom in the browser.

SPJS-Autocomplete v1.5.4 BETA (March 12, 2017)

This is in BETA because jQuery now loads with “noConflict”.

• • Added support for “optionDetailPrefix” that lets you use a prefix in the dropdown for each of the fields in the “optionDetailFields” array.

 "optionDetailPrefix":["Status: "]

• • Added new option “searchFields” that lets you specify which fields you will search in when typing in the searchbox. It’s still the “showField” that will be show in the input when you have selected an item.

 "searchFields":["Title","Status","Author"]

• Fixed a few small issues with the blur event on an autocomplete where you could enter an invalid value if you pasted an invalid option and tabbed out of the field within 250ms.

vLookup v.2.2.90 BETA (March 12, 2017)

This is in BETA because jQuery now loads with “noConflict”.

• Translation / replace in documents wasn’t working when using folders.

SPJS-lookup v1.1.8 BETA (March 12, 2017)

This is in BETA because jQuery now loads with “noConflict”.

• Added MUI support on labels in the configuration options “dropDownDefaultvalue”, “linkText” and “saveNewItemText”.
• Added new options “orderBy” that lets you sort the options by another field than the “optTextFieldInternalName”.
• Documented the “optValFieldInternalName” option.
• Documented the “parseFunction” option.

SPJS-Utility.js v1.300 BETA (March 12, 2017)

This is in BETA because jQuery now loads with “noConflict”.

• Changed the getFieldValue function to work on attachments. The returned value will be an anchor tab with the name and link to the attachment file.

You find the files in this BETA here.

Please don’t uses this in a production release until it is out of BETA, and any feedback you can give on the new functionality related to linked rules are appreciated.

February 25, 2017

DFFS v4.4.2.9 (February 25, 2017)

• The dateformat in setFieldValue when using “timestamp” now supports d and M for single digit day and month.
• Trimmed the string added in the “Run these functions / trigger these rules” sections to avoid errors when leaving a whitespace behind the function name.
• Disabled the functionality that made the rows switch place to show the active tab in the lower row when using the “Split tabs in multiple rows” in the Misc tab.
• Fixed an issue with setting a people picker as readonly and it sometimes didn’t update the value in the readonly presentation.
• Fixed an issue where the styles in the form was not applied on the printout in IE.
• Fixed an issu with cloning a form that has the “formConfig=XYZ” in the “pageId”. This will now be included in the cloned config.
• Added option to redirect from NewForm to DispForm.
• Created new pages with documentation for the DFFS plugins SPJS-Cascading dropdowns and SPJS-Autocomplete.

SPJS-utility.js v1.279 (February 25, 2017)

• Added support for getting and setting “TaskOutcome” in a workflow task column.
• Addes support for using d and M for single digit day and month in the format when calling the function spjs.utility.dateObjToFormattedString
• Fixed an issue when trying to run the getMaxID function on the “userInfo” list. This would return a number in the millions range due to some system accounts being created with a really high ID.
• Added support for setting the “All day event” and “Recurring” as readonly.

SPJS AC v1.5.1 (February 25, 2017)

• Fixed an issue where editing a value in the autocomplete and immediately tabbing out of the field made it fail to validate the input.
• Changed the status images and the coloring of the input when inputting invalid values.
• Added some more checks to ensure you have used the correct field as “placeholder” for the Autocomplete. You will get a notification if you use “multiselect” and doesn’t have a multiling plain text field as “placeholder”.
• Fixed an issue where a lookup column that was used in the “setFields” configuration was not cleared when clering the value in the autocomplete. If this is done in EditForm and the lookup column is a required field set in the list settings, the topmost item will be selected as no “(None)” option is available. Please note that this change is done in spjs-utility.js so you must update this to the latest version.
• Fixed some weaknesses in the reValidateOnLoad functionality.
• A few “internal” changes to ensure more stable performance when changing the selection in the autocomplete.

SPJS Cascading dropdowns v3.7.0 (February 25, 2017)

• Added support for using an initial filter to narrow down the dataset to items matching the filter.

vLookup v2.2.84 (February 25, 2017)

• Fixed an issue with using {var:somVariable} in the “replace” functionality in the “Special configuration” for a field in vLookup backend.

spjs-Lookup v1.1.6 (February 25, 2017)

• Fixed an error occurring when NOT using the option “clearInvalidSelections”.

February 15, 2017

DFFS 4.4.2.8 (February 15, 2017)

• Added support for “All day event” and “Recurring” as triggers in DFFS rule. Also added support for setting these fields as readonly.
• Added a check to ensure you don’t save duplicates in case the same field was selected multiple times in for example “Hidden fields” or “Required fields” in a rule.
• Fixed a bug where the attachment field was removed from a tab in case you deleted the last attachment.
• Added support for using redirect in a modal dialog to redirect from NewForm to EditForm, or to save an EditForm and reload the same item (in Misc tab). You can also use this code to add a custom redirect after you save a NewForm or EditForm:

  spjs.dffs.redirect("https://you_tenant_url.sharepoint.com/your_target_page?some_url_key=some_value",false);

  The second parameter is true for open in dialog, and false for open in the same page. Please note that opening a redirect page in a dialog is ONLY allowed if the form you are redirecting from is in a dialog.

• Fixed an error in a built in object “spjs.dffs.data.tabConfigObj” where only the tab id was used an not the “friendly name”. This object is for internal use, or if you feel creative and want to build advanced functionality in the Custom JS.
• Added a new operator “does not contain”. Please consider this as BETA until I have gotten a bit more feedback on the functionality.

Installer_CEWP_code.html v1.0.1.1 (February 15, 2017)

• Added link to go directly to the DFFS Backend from the installer page.

SPJS-utility.js v1.275 (February 15, 2017)

• Added support for setting and getting the “All day event” and “Recurring” checkbox values.
• Fixed an isseue with getFieldValue on a people picker in SharePoint 2010. This one made the validation of a required people picker field fail even if it was properly filled in.

vLookup v2.2.82 (February 15, 2017)

• Added support for using MUI on “thousandsSeparator” and “decimalSeparator” in “Number format” under “Special configuration”.
• Fixed an error in a function used to get the “maxID” in the child list when vLookup was used on the root of a site collection and the “baseUrl” was “/”. This would sometines make a folder render as empty even if it has documents in it.
• Added a few new options in the “Special configuration” – see help icon for details.

SPJS-Lookup v1.1.5 (February 15, 2017)

• Added a new options “clearInvalidSelections” to control how selection that has been removed from the source list after it has been first used in a list item, and then the list item is edited. Add this option to the function call. I’ll update the documentation for this solution in the near future. Previously the functionality was like SharePoint’s own lookup colund and the value was cleared. If you set “clearInvalidSelections” to false, your value will be preserved when if you edit the list item, but it will NOT be selectable in items that hasn’t already used this option.
• Moved the debug output (when using “debug=true”) down to the field itself and added the argument object to the debug output.

SPJS-Casc.js v3.6.9 (February 15, 2017)

• Added support for using a multichoice lookup column in any place in the “line” of fields and not only as the last one. Please note that you will get duplicate values in the fields if you have duplicates in the datasource in multiple field when using multichoice lookup fields.

February 01, 2017

DFFS v4.4.2.7 (February 01, 2017)

• Updated the ACE code editor to v1.2.6
• Added built in function to redirect from NewForm to EditForm, or to save changes in EditForm, and keep editing the same item. This works in SharePoint 2010 and 2013 / Office 365 when the form is NOT opened in a modal dialog. See Misc tab in DFFS backend.
• Fixed an issue with the function that verifies an email address when using REST to set emails. This function would not recognize the user login name if this was used instead of an email address.
• Fixed an issue where a rule that cleared a people picker and at the same time set the field as readonly kept showing the old value even if the field was cleared.
• Fixed an issue with detecting folders in a custom list.
• Fixed an issue with “beforeproperties” on people picker fields on SharePoint 2013 on premises when loading a list item in DispForm. An error in the script caused the ID to be returned with a trailing semicolon, and caused DFFS rules like “Compare logged in user with people picker field” to fail.
• Added better error handling to the function “strToDateObj” so it will not throw an error if your pass an invalid FieldInternalName.
• Changed to a lighter shade of gray for the “checkbox” representing a readonly Yes/No column in NewForm or EditForm, or in DispForm.
• Fixed the scroll in each tab in DFFS backend to these now are individual and scrolling one will not offset the scroll in another.
• Added information about fields being required in the list settings in the “List fields” tab.
• Moved the “Add new field” and “Go to list settings” from the “Misc” tab to the “List fields” tab.

SPJS-Utility.js v.1.272 (February 01, 2017)

• Fixed an issue where a rule that cleared a people picker and at the same time set the field as readonly kept showing the old value even if the field was cleared.

SPJS-AutoComplete v1.4.14 (February 01, 2017)

• Fixed a bug occurring when using “optionDetailFields” to specify additional fields to show in the options, and you use arrow keys and enter to select an item. In this case, all text values in the current option (including the details) would be appended to the field.
• Added “delete” as alias for the “destroy” function.
• Fixed a bug where clearing an autocomplete instance failed to clear the “setFields”.

vLookup frontend v2.2.80 (February 01, 2017)

• Fixed an bug where expanding a folder would not execute any custom render function set up in the “Special configuration” for the field.
• Fixed an issue where the groups wouldn’t order descending if the column you grouped on contained only numeric values.
• Fixed an potential error with leaving an empty “viewFields” row in the config. This would be saved with the config and would cause an error on load.

SPJS-Casc.js v3.6.8 (February 01, 2017)

• Added support for using a pipe character to delimit multiple options in all “levels”. Plase note that this may need more testing so please post in the forum if you find a bug.
• Tried to fix an issue occurring when a multichoice field only contains one option when loading it in EditForm. The field will be marked with a red dotted line, and the field fails to save the selected value.

January 17, 2017

SPJS-Casc.js v3.6.6 (January 17, 2017)

• Fixed an issue that prevented the use of lookup columns in more than one of the fields in the source list on SharePoint 2013/2016.
• Added support for using a multilookup column as the source field for the last field in a cascading dropdown configuration. Each of the options will be shown as one option in the dropdown.
• Added support for using a multiline plain text field with pipe delimited values (Option 1|Option 2|Option 3) as the source field for the last field in a cascading dropdown configuration. Each of the options will be shown as one option in the dropdown.

DFFS v4.4.2.5 (January 12, 2017)

• The “local” DFFS installer (not yet the APP) has a new button that does a total cleanup of old CEWPs in the form. This can be used to uninstall an older CEWP installation of DFFS.
• Fixed an issue where you loaded an older version of the cascading dropdowns plugin, and the DFFS backend did not render correctly (missing content in tabs).
• Changed location of the links to the list settings for adding or modifying fields from the Misc tab to the “List fields” tab (renamed). I have also added a button that opens the list settings in a new tab.
• Fixed an issue with sending the tab contents from DispForm where the email always would be sent with REST even if you had checked “Use custom list with workflow to send E-Mails” in the “E-Mail and Print” tab.
• Fixed an issue with crating the DFFS_Email list the first time you checked the “Use custom list with workflow to send E-Mails” in the “E-Mail and Print” tab where some fields would not be added until you unchecked and rechecked the “Use custom list with workflow to send E-Mails” checkbox.
• Added support in the latest version for a previously undocumented feature where you can have multiple configurations for a form by using this URL key setup:

  https://contoso.com/Lists/Tasks/NewForm.aspx?FormConfig=VariantA

  this config will load a totally different config than this address:

  https://contoso.com/Lists/Tasks/NewForm.aspx?FormConfig=VariantB

  Using this method you can crate different forms that you can link to, and have different DFFS config so your rules in a complex form can be handled separately for each form config”.

SPJS-Casc v3.6.5 (January 12, 2017)

• Removed an alert when trying to load the config in a content type that doesn’t have the fields used in the cascading dropdown configuration – for example in a folder in a document library.
• Fixed an error where the “fields” object was not correctly populated, causing a malfunction of the cascading dropdowns.
• Added support for using a lookup column as a source field for the cascading dropdown in SP 2013 (was lost in v3.6.x after changing the query to use REST). Please see the help icon in the cascading dropdonw configuration screen in DFFS backend (requires DFFS backend v4.4.2.5) for details.
• Added “Note to self” in the cascading dropdown config screen in DFFS backend.
• Fixed an issue with using the setting “Hide the dropdowns when they have no available options” with DFFS tabs.
• Fixed a bug where you would get an error like “the object doesn’t support the property or method match”.
