    Hi

    I have a question regarding formats
    When I use this plugin my DB looks like that:

    Your Name Recipient Your Subject Your Message Created On
    John Joe Hello hahahaha 18:24:02

    I would like to get something more like:

    From: John
    To: Joe
    Subject: Hello
    Message: hahahaha

    Also each record should be different page while printing. How to do it?

    Hi @wanderlustshutter,

    We did a grid view in horizontal manner and not in vertical for a reason. We wanted more records to be displayed on a single page, and also wanted the search and sort become easy. If we do it in your suggested fashion, it would become difficult for anyone to just sort the records by “To” or by “Subject”. Imagine you want to sort the records by “Subject”, you will just need to click on the Subject header and boom!!! I will sort it. But if the data is placed Vertically in single column it will be hard to do that.

    But, I can understand you might have different needs, so what you can do is, you can install CFDB: https://cfdbplugin.com/
    This will fulfil your needs.

    Hi

    I did try CFDB but it works similar to your plugin and as of now I have no idea how to change it. Thanks anyway!

    Hi,

    My be they have changed that then. When I saw it they had the data displayed the way you need.

    I am sorry, I couldn’t be of much help.
