 * I wanted to test if it was plugin conflict or something that makes saving files
   and showing images with Cfdb and Cf7 not work. When I disable the Smart Grid-
   Layout Design for Contact Form 7, I cant see any contact form 7 forms or create
   new ones. WordPress says I don’t have rights to those posts or invalid post type.
   Can’t really test it now because nothing works if I disable this plugin. Seems
   that this plugin is buggy and probably is breaking Cfdb too.

   are some of the weird problems I’ve encountered.

 * the plugin uses different admin pages to the CF7 plugin. So if you disable it
   make sure you navigate away from the Cnotact Form menu in the dashboard and then
   back again, this will ensure the CF7 plugin admin pages are loaded.

 * I don’t recommend you use CF7DB, the plugin has not been designed to be compatible
   with this one. Instead use [Post My CF7 Form](https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-my-contact-form-7/)
   extension, a plugin I wrote to store form submissions as posts in the CMS makign
   it easier to itneract with your data usign core WP functionality. Moreover, Post
   My CF7 Form is compatible with the Smart Grid.
