Various improvements and additions

Today's update includes system maintenance, bug fixes, performance improvements, and feature additions.

Fix/improvement for time-based closing of forms

We have improved the handling of closing forms that have a "Close at" date defined. Previously, when a data was set, the form would close at midnight German time (where our servers are located). We now respect the timezone that is set in the workspace settings.

Option to disable sending emails to respondents

Ever since we launched the "Email" field, it was possible to toggle a checkbox that would determine if a confirmation email should be sent to the respondent, it's documented here. This toggle also defines the "reply-to" address to emails sent to admins.

We now added a new toggle "Send confirmation emails", which is enabled by default. When disabled, we won't send an email to the respondent, but the field itself will still be considered the email field internally, meaning the "reply-to" remains and any connections relying on this (e.g. the HubSpot sync) will work just fine. The new toggle only defines if respondents should actually receive a confirmation email.

Custom target for links

We added support for link targets for workspace links.

When creating or editing a global workspace link, you can now change the target to either "blank" (default), "parent", "self" or "top". This can be useful for embedded forms. Before the change, every link would automatically open in a new tab ("blank")

Country select based on workspace locale

When setting a locale in the workspace settings, the country dropdown now shows the list of countries in that locale. So when your workspace is set to "Germany", the dropdown will now show all countries in German language, eg. "Deutschland" instead of "Germany".

Stored values will also change based on that. So if your automation relies on the English values (the way it was before), be aware of that. This only applies if your workspace locale was changed to anything other than "English".
