[Plugin: Contact Form 7 to Database Extension] CFDB-HTML Shortcode Issues

    Hi Michael,

    I upgraded to 1.8 and attempted to start using the new shortcode for CFDB-HTML but I’m not having any luck. My page stops rendering where the code is executed in the body.

    Here’s my code:

    [cfdb-html form="Written Testimonial Form" show="name,testimonial,condition" orderby="Submitted desc"]
<div class="testimonial">
${testimonial}
<p>-- ${name} (${condition})</p>
</div>
[/cfdb-html]

    It basically crashes the loop. Any ideas? Are any of the attributes required, like LIMIT? I’m assuming if you want a full dump you leave limit out.

    One more bug/thing I’d like to point out… when viewing the “Database” page in the admin area, the records are not showing. It’s showing me there are 4 entries in the db, but nothing below it.

    Thanks!

    Is your version of PHP less than 5.2?

    You shouldn’t have to limit. I’ve seen this issue on someone else’s site but I haven’t definitively tracked it down.

    I’m not sure what transpired from the day I posted this issue, but its now resolved.

    I did not make any changes to the site or upgrade PHP.

    Ill chock it off to a cache issue!

    Thanks (Resolved)

    Someone else had reported a similar issue and I put in a fix (in I think in 1.8.2) where I thought the code that loops through the result might get hung up but I wasn’t sure if it could happen. If you see it again please let me know.

    Will do. Quick question, any way to stripslashes on output? Or should I handle this on the insert?

    There isn’t a way to modify/transform a value. But it should be not injecting slashes (like \’) if that is what you mean. Submitted values go through a stripslashes call before begin saved to the DB.

    I’m surprised the contact form 7 isn’t already handling this! yes, that’s exactly what I mean…

    “It’s” enters in the db as it\s and is consequently outputted with the slash upon performing cfdb-html.
