[Unreleased]

2026-03-26

Added

  • Workflow branding and theming — apply custom colours, logos, cover images, and themes to workflow participant pages, just like forms
  • Workflow embed support — embed workflow participant pages in your website with the same iframe/script options as forms
  • Display-only field types in workflows — heading, content, image, and embed fields now render as read-only display elements in workflow stages
  • Workflow activity on the dashboard — the Recent Activity stream now shows workflow launches and stage completions alongside form responses
  • Spam protection — honeypot fields, submission timing checks, and optional Cloudflare Turnstile CAPTCHA for forms
  • Workflow context display — participants can see grouped context from previous stages while completing their own
  • Pill-shaped buttons — new button shape option in form branding settings
  • Transparent background option for branded forms and embeds
  • Granular colour controls — set separate colours for headings, body text, labels, input borders, and input backgrounds
  • Clickable dashboard stat cards — "Total Forms" and "Responses" cards now link directly to their respective pages
  • Form cards on the dashboard show a clear visual cue to view responses

Changed

  • Workflows now pass the entry-stage participant's name and email through as context for all subsequent stages
  • Inline form layouts now stack vertically below 480px for better embed compatibility
  • The "hide title" setting is now controlled from the branding panel instead of URL parameters
  • Embed iframe sizing is more accurate, using document height and respecting configured minimums

Fixed

  • Comprehensive accessibility improvements across the entire interface:
    • Dialogs now trap keyboard focus, return focus on close, and announce their title to screen readers
    • Dropdown menus support full arrow-key navigation and announce open/closed state
    • Tab bars support arrow-key navigation with proper ARIA roles and associations
    • Form fields now correctly link error messages and helper text to their inputs for screen readers
    • The mobile sidebar no longer leaks keyboard focus when closed
    • All icon-only buttons now have descriptive labels for screen readers
    • Data tables include proper headers, captions, and sort announcements
    • Focus indicators are now clearly visible with sufficient contrast
    • Secondary text colour meets WCAG AA contrast requirements
  • Mobile responsiveness fixes:
    • Form and workflow builder toolbars no longer overflow on small screens
    • Tab bars scroll horizontally instead of clipping on narrow viewports
    • Banner dismiss buttons meet minimum touch target size (44px)
    • The admin layout uses dynamic viewport height, fixing iOS Safari clipping
    • Landing page footer links wrap properly on phones
  • Rich text lists, blockquotes, and code blocks now display correctly in form responses
  • Condition builder and stage field editor dropdowns no longer break with dynamic options
  • Centralised URL handling prevents broken links in development vs production
