Version 3.3.1
Fixes a bug introduced with v3.3.0 that prevented forms from submitting on iOS devices.
Welcome to the blog¶
We publish the occasional post about LiberaForms in general.
New software releases are also posted here, so we'll be referencing this site as a source of upgrade information.
Thanks for visiting.
Free Form software for all!
Version 3.3.0
By popular demand, LiberaForms now comes with a Map field that can be easily included in your forms to solicit geo location data!
- Collected map data can be viewed, edited, and exported in the same way you already manage your answers
- Two endpoints (HTML and JSON) to view answers on a map via publically available URLs
- Editors may customize the information displayed in map marker popus
- Admins can define the default map field coordinates and zoom on the
/adminpage
This release includes some bug fixes. Worth mentioning:
- Form attachments upload correctly from iOS devices
- Forms don't submit when the
<enter>key is pressed on a focused input field
We've also revisited the installation process. LiberaForms installs on debian12 and tests against more Python versions (see INSTALL.md)
End to End Encryption (E2EE) on LiberaForms
After some teasing, we are happy to announce that this feature has landed on dev.liberaforms.org!
That means it is now open for broader testing and will make it into v4, the
next version of LiberaForms, which will make your favourite FOSS form software
much more useful and interesting.
You can check the user documentation here, so we will be focusing here a tad more on the design and implementation of the feature.
E2EE on LiberaForms: Answer Sharing
On the first E2EE implementation on LiberaForms we lost temporarily the ability to Share Answers with other LiberaForms users.
That is, of course, one of the nicest features we have, so it needed to be restored swiftly!
E2EE on LiberaForms: first implementation
End to End Encryption (E2EE), that is, allowing form Editors to ensure that the answers to their forms, cannot be read even by their friendly sysadmins, has been on the roadmap of LiberaForms since we received the European Comission's Next Generation Internet initiative NLnet grant in 2023.
We are happy to share a preview of the first implementation of this feature!
Open Letter to the European Commission
Next Generation Internet (NGI) support has been crucial to the development of LiberaForms.
We support this open letter in defense of NGI programmes originally published by petites singularités.
Version 3.2.0
This version fixes code design (or lack of) that prevented forms with multiple file upload fields from submitting. Thanks to the people who pointed this out to us!
The application interface has been translated to French and the Privacy statement wizard now has a language selector (German included). Translations are much appreciated, thank you!
Other new features are moslty Admin tools.
Also includes some code improvements, and CSS tweaks.
Collaboration: Framasoft and LiberaForms
We are happy to announce that Framasoft is beginning a collaboration with LiberaForms. This is a big step forward on our way to providing a free, ethical, and community driven online free form software.
