    Hello,

    Each time i make a form submissions, the Advanced CF7 DB creates 2 new columns with the following headings: 9d93cfe5381f1ecea6ca4275d9960091 & r3f5x9JS. I know that this are spam fields since it started happening recently.

    Hello @ndegwakabue,

    According to us, these fields must be included in the contact form 7 as a hidden field or so. Kindly check the forms created first or there must be another plugin which may be doing so.

    However, we are trying to provide filters to exclude the fields and CF7 form from submitting in the next version.

    Our next version will be coming very soon.

    Regards,

    Hello @ndegwakabue,

    You would be glad to know that we have provided filters before saving the data to the database.

    You can find the example in the FAQ section, in addition, we have also provided the filter for restricting certain form saving to our DB.

    Hope you will enjoy the new features and get your issue resolved.

    Regards,

    Hello,

    I have updated the plugin to the latest version but am still getting the hidden fields as columns on CF7 DB. Is there anything am supposed to do on my end for the new filters to work?

    Hi guys,

    I am having this problem too, the database has hundreds of empty columns with titles similar to the ones mentioned above.

    This is causing me lots of problems because it’s causing the loading of the entries to slow down and sometimes crash.

    Please help urgently.
