Do not save forms in DB named…

    I am using the “do not save forms in DB named (comma-separated list, no spaces)” feature, and my forms have spaces in them (using Gravity Forms, latest version).

    For example I had “Contractor Form”, and I tried using “ContractorForm” in the comma-separated list, and also “Contractor-Form” as well as “Contractor_Form” and lowercase variants of these (without the quotes of course) — all without any success.

    But, when I actually put “Contractor Form,” (without the quotes) it worked and stopped saving the data from the form.

    Is this expected even though it says not to use spaces?
    Is there any reason or cause for concern with using spaces?

    Sorry for the confusion: “no spaces” means no spaces after the comma b/c spaces are interpreted as part of the name.

    ie.
    Contractor Form1,Contractor Form2
    not
    Contractor Form1, Contractor Form2

    Ahhh. Okay perfect.
    I think revising the hint on the settings page for that feature could benefit users with an example.

    Suggestion: I think revising the hint with an example on the settings page for that feature could benefit other users and avoid confusion.

    BTW great job on the plugin, I really like how it does a lot of the heavy-lifting of parsing the json of forms in gravityforms into nicer tables in the DB.
