# SQL does not work

 * The SQL query support is broken. Using an SQL query as the data source hangs 
   the plugin (and the wordpress dashboard). The plugin cannot pull data from a 
   database view either. Tables are presented in the drop-down selection, but not
   views.
 * So if you have CSV data this has some nifty features. I particularly liked the
   column search capability. Alas, it is not up to production level at this time.

 * Oddly enough I did in fact submit issue #22388 cannot-use-database-view-as-data-
   source and #22387 Database Source Option.
 * I will say that the free version of the plugin was impressive. It was enough 
   to get me to pay money for the database access. The fact that I can’t really 
   get ANY of the database access to work was odd. Since it was clear from your 
   forum that I wasn’t alone in this, I felt the need to post a review. At such 
   time as we resolve the issue, I’ll be glad to adjust the review.

 * We are unable to reproduce this problem.
    It is necessary to carefully study 
   the situation. Perhaps the problem is in the SQL query itself or conflict with
   other plugins. We are ready to study this problem.
 * As for database view – there is no such option in the plugin.
    Perhaps you saw
   where there is such an implementation or can you signify your suggestions?
