 * Hello,
 * I am looking for an easy way for users with very little experience with computers
   to be able to update posts using a contact form.
 * I have installed your plugin and I am able to submit a form and have it display
   as the post content. However, when a new form is submitted, all the old data 
   is visible along with the new data. What I would like to do is only display the
   last instance of the form that was submitted. I have looked through the documentation
   and found how to filter by date etc.
 * Is there a way for just displaying the data from the last form submitted?
 * I would also like to give my thanks for creating such a good and easy to use 
   plugin! Keep up the good work.
 * Thanks,
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-to-database-extension/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-to-database-extension/)

 * If you are displaying form data using a short code, then the data is sorted by
   default with the most recent form submission first. To show only one, use limit
   =”1″. For example:
 * `[cfdb-table form="form-name" limit="1"]`
