 * fyi – was trying out latest version (1.2.9) and the new email results to admin
   feature but got errors when i checked the box next to the admin’s email -> error
   = Unknown column ’email_list’ in ‘field list’
 * not sure if i was supposed to re-enter my admin email in the text box below ..??..
 * also, it would be cool if there was some way to control how many times a user
   can submit a form … e.g., i could click back button and enter multiple times 
   which isn’t end of world if i make the form private for logged in users but i
   could see how this would be issue if the form was public …
 * lastly, it would also be cool if there was way to make a checkbox a required 
   field … e.g., you agree to site terms checkbox that if not checked, loads required
   field message … note that i do see that one could create a list field, make it
   a checkbox, and then required so ….
 * i really do appreciate how clean this plugin seems to be … kudos to great job:
   >) cordially, chuck scott
 * ps – i was testing latest version on a sub site on WP multisite 3.1.1 network…

 * ooops … i found out why … i had other forms from versions 1.2.4 and 1.2.5 so 
   i deleted all those forms, de-activated plugin, re-activated, then created new
   form and voila – the email error was not present …

 * Chuck, that’s a great idea about the required checkbox. It seemed silly to ‘require’
   a choice on the checkbox, since leaving it blank could be your choice, but as
   far as requiring that it be checked, that makes a lot of sense. As for limiting
   submissions, I was planning on incorporating some kind of ‘human test’ like recaptcha.
 * BTW I’m getting ‘Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_get_current_user()’
   when I try to network activate the plugin. I have no idea why.
 * Thanks for the feedback and suggestions!

 * Hi Campbell – i can appreciate the human test recaptcha route but i was thinking
   more along the lines of nonce variable / cookies … yes, if my form was public,
   then the captcha thing makes sense … but i’m leaning on using forms for logged
   in users so the captcha thing isn’t as important (at least i don’t think) as 
   i was impressed that you are capturing / recording the user-id when i looked 
   at the data from submitted forms … that’s what got me thinking “gee – that admin
   guy submitted same form four times” … the nonce thing i believe is how other 
   form plugin folks are able to limit user submissions and even allow a user to
   go back and edit their submission – e.g., Formidable Forms -> [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/formidable/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/formidable/)
   and DB-Toolkit -> [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/db-toolkit/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/db-toolkit/)…
   not positive on this but share as fyi and food for thought :>) cordially, chuck
   scott

 * Version 1.2.10 includes the ‘required checkbox’. Thanks for the suggestion.

 * Version 1.3.0 includes some form behaviors along the lines of what I think you
   were talking about – please let me know if I can tweak this any further.

 * Thanks for continued improvements with this … the required checkbox works like
   a charm … i also like the new behaviors form options …
 * i did some tests logged in but had multiple browsers open so cookie sessions 
   might have gotten in way and false sense but i was a bit confused by the Behaviors–
   namely Single Submission vs User Profile style – they both seemed to work the
   same in that i could use back button and enter new info and submit form again
   and again … the “Keep only most recent submission” did work fine in that yes 
   i could go back and re-enter data but the form collected data only showed the
   last set – which is Cool :>)
 * at to tweaks, i’d probably suggest adding messages to the final form … eg., the
   user profile and Single Submission option show the resulting form fields and 
   their data but it would be nice to have a success message that also said “thanks
   you information has been submitted” (or something like that) …
 * ditto on the Keep only most recent submission and having a sucess message – e.
   g., “thanks – your form data has been updated and submitted – now go out and 
   do something that would make your mother proud :>0”
 * truly i jest but you get the idea – some kind of follow-up thanks message akin
   to when the form is in the default mode …
 * to be continued … cordially, chuck scott
