Consolidate "Scale" input data in Submissions / Custom Column Grouping

Feature Request

Use Case: We use OpnForm as an order form for our local brewery to make ordering easy for our customers.

The Problem: When we use the "Scale" input for customers to select product quantities, every single option generates its own separate column in the submissions table. If we have 4 options for one type of beer, it creates 4 separate columns, making the data table very wide and hard to read.

Proposed Solution:

  1. Quick fix: Make the "Scale" input display its data in a single, grouped column inside the submissions table, exactly how the "Matrix" input currently works.

  2. Ideal fix: Allow users to create custom columns in the submissions view, where we can manually map and group answers from the same product type into one unified column.

This would make OpnForm incredibly powerful for e-commerce and order management. Thank you for the great tool!

    Hi Naročila,

    Thanks for reaching out with this!

    I can see how having a separate column for every single product option makes the submissions table feel cluttered, especially when you're managing orders for the brewery. Your suggestion to group the "Scale" input data—similar to how the Matrix input works—is a really interesting idea for keeping things readable.

    We appreciate you sharing these specific fixes and the vision for making OpnForm a stronger tool for order management. It’s great to hear how you’re using it!

    Best,
