 * Hello CFDB Support,
 * We like the concept of your CFDB Plugin and are trying to incorporate it in our
   website: PalmBeachCountyInfo.com. We are using it together with Caldera forms
   and at first it appeared to be working fine until we deleted entries from our
   Caldera forms DB. Oddly, the shortcode is pulling form entries and displaying
   them which were deleted from the Caldera forms entry database. The entries are
   definitely not there in the Caldera forms plugin display, but, they are still
   there on the page that uses the CFDB shortcode. I have included a copy of the
   shortcode below. While we see that it is still in the beta stage, do you have
   an update that would help us out with this at this time? If not, will there be
   one forthcoming?
 * Shortcode used:
    [cfdb-table form=”Hotel Availability – Central County” orderby
   =”Submitted DESC” show=”Property Name,City,Hotel Open?,Submitted,,Submitted Login”]
 * Thank you,
    Jim Baldwin Webmaster Discover Palm Beach County

 * CFDB captures form submissions and stored them in its own DB table. This is separate
   from what Caldera forms does. You end up with 2 copies of the data, one that 
   Caldera captured and one that CFDB captured. If you delete from one, it doesn’t
   delete in the other.
