 * When building a contact form on my site I get the message …
 * Error saving form. The maximum amount of data allowed by your server has been
   reached. Please update max_input_vars in your php.ini file to allow more data
   to be saved. Current limit is 1000
 * I have not had limits with any other form plugins I have used for the same form
   they just did’t work correctly. So is this a limit for this plugin and is there
   a way to fix it?

 * The limit is being applied by your server – not the plugin. Try asking your hosts
   about this.

 * This is a GREAT plugin! I really like it. I just have a problem I can’t seem 
   to fix. I get the same error as the one listed above. I’ve already contacted 
   my hosting provider and they have increased the max_input_vars to 5000 yet I 
   still get this error.
 * Your help is greatly appreciated.
