About the Project
Our custom inspection form plugin simplifies safety reporting by allowing users to submit detailed safety reports directly through a user-friendly form. It’s designed to capture crucial information like photos and signatures, making it ideal for job safety and safety concern reports. With an admin dashboard that offers powerful search and filtering tools, reports can be previewed and downloaded as consolidated PDFs for easy management.
The plugin is optimized for mobile, ensuring seamless use in the field, and includes features like local storage for saving forms temporarily. This ensures no data is lost even if the report isn’t submitted immediately.
What Makes This Plugin Special
What sets this plugin apart is its focus on usability and performance.
- Mobile-Friendly Design: The forms work perfectly on any mobile device, so users can complete safety reports directly on-site.
- Local Data Storage: Users can save their progress and return to unfinished forms at their convenience, avoiding the frustration of losing data.
- Efficient Admin Tools: Admins can search through reports using filters like text inputs, date ranges, or dropdowns, and access results instantly thanks to built-in pagination.
- Comprehensive Downloads: Every submitted report can be downloaded as a professional PDF, complete with all details and attachments.
Overcoming Challenges
One of the biggest challenges was implementing a reliable local storage solution for saving partially completed forms. We developed a system where each saved report is assigned a unique key, allowing users to resume their work or delete entries they no longer need. This ensures flexibility and convenience for users.
Another challenge was optimizing performance for the admin dashboard. By using efficient filtering and pagination techniques, the dashboard provides quick access to reports, even in cases of large data volumes.
The Results
Our inspection form plugin has transformed safety reporting by:
- Streamlining the submission process with an intuitive and reliable mobile experience.
- Empowering admins with a robust dashboard for efficient report management.
- Enhancing productivity by reducing time spent searching for and organizing safety reports.
Whether you’re in the field or the office, this plugin highlights how safety reporting can be made easier and more accurate while keeping safety at the forefront.
