 * Hi. Great plugin!
    Can you please add a filter just before you save the $formData
   so we can decide what fields we want to exclude? There are some fields that I
   want to send, but not save as they are empty/not relevant. Something for this
   sort:
 * $filteredFormData = apply_filters(‘cfdb7_filter_data_to_persist’, $form_data);
   
   $form_post_id = $form_tag->id(); $form_value = serialize( $filteredFormData );
 * I wanted to create a pull request, but it seems the github repo is abandoned.
   
   Thx a lot! Roi.

 * Maybe also add in the $formTag or the form id:
 * $filteredFormData = apply_filters(‘cfdb7_filter_data_to_persist’, $form_data,
   $form_tag);
