Cockpit: Custom CTA fields should be visible by default

@darkknight - We are considering this as a part of our Admin Revamp initiative that we will be working on this in the second half of this year. We will have tentative timelines for this soon.

@mpatra - any further updates on the timeline for this as part of your Admin Revamp initiative? Our users are regularly forgetting these fields which then requires us to do manual data clean-up, so the ability to adjust the positioning/layout would be hugely beneficial. thank you!

Hi @lizcopeland ,

This is under development now. I will keep this thread updated on the status of the project and release dates.

Thanks,

Monica

@mpatra any update on the ETA for this? cc @revathimenon 

Wow, it surprises me that this idea pre-dates the Cockpit Admin revamp. All that work to Horizonize Cockpit without actually improving the functionality or use...very disappointing to see 😔

As @mindym stated - custom fields in CTAs are unusable in current state. They must be above the fold of a CTA layout, and they must have the ability to set as “Mandatory upon creation.”

The fact that this has been an issue for this many years is mind-boggling 😬

This one to me is a no-brainer. It’d also be nice to be able to make certain fields required not just for CTA closure but creation as well.

@wscuphamabnormal you might find this of interest as well: 

So grateful to see this as “in development” - any sense of when it may be released? We’ve got a custom field that we’re keen on having CSMs use, but it’s hidden under show more and easily missed. 

Thanks!
