 * Purchased and installed editor.
    Tried setting to editable to “anyone” Clicking
   on cell or header does not make it editable. Edit function does work withing 
   the panel.
 * No cache plugin installed.

 * When I connect to your page I do not see the data. This makes me suspect the 
   overall plugin security setting might be related. See: [http://cfdbplugin.com/?page_id=625](http://cfdbplugin.com/?page_id=625)
 * I’m not sure if that is the issue, but try and let me know.

 * Also: “edit” must me set to “true” not “anyone”.
 * For example:
 * `[cfdb-datatable form="your-form" edit="true"]`

 * The CFDB option: “Can Edit/Delete Submission data” = “Anyone” would need to be
   set. I’m not sure if this is what you meant that you had set already.

   =”NC Sales CRM” filter=”state=NC” edit=”cells”]

 * Can See Submission when using shortcodes: now set to anyone
 * Can Edit/Delete Submission data: now set to anyone
 * PS I am logged in as the admin and it still will not edit.

 * You have to use cfdb-datatable
 * Try:
 * `[cfdb-datatable form="NC Sales CRM" filter="state=NC" edit="cells"]`
