 * First off, I don’t agree with your reply to my suggestion. Going through and 
   hiding and un-hiding fields is a pain. All you need to do is add a check box 
   that states export hidden fields. It would be a much better interface. On a large
   form that has many fields, unhiding and hiding fields is very cumbersome. As 
   well, a large form is difficult to scroll through in the WordPress dashboard 
   without hiding fields to make it more manageable for a quick reference.
 * You can look at the directory for my test site, I have it open for you.
 * [https://www.gqcccquiltshow.org/oshine/wp-content/uploads/cf7-database/](https://www.gqcccquiltshow.org/oshine/wp-content/uploads/cf7-database/)
 * No images are showing up in the directory. Also, normally the link shows in the
   database field and it is showing only a name and not the link.
 * I have included screen shots here for you [https://www.gqcccquiltshow.org/oshine/wp-content/uploads/cf7-database/screenshots/](https://www.gqcccquiltshow.org/oshine/wp-content/uploads/cf7-database/screenshots/)
 * I am using another extension Smart Grids and they needed to update to handle 
   the new Contact Form 5.4 upload code. You extension only works if I do not update
   Contact Form to 5.4.

 * Hi Bruce,
 * For some reason I did not see the email saying your responded. Sorry for the 
   slow response.
 * The code did not work. Nothing is being saved.
 * Couple of items that may change your code.
 * Your plugin is entitled cf7-database not cf7-db so the folder path is cf7-database/
   frontend.
 * Also, the data in the database only lists the file name but I figure that is 
   all related.
 * Another item that you may considering in your next update. We have hidden fields
   because they are too long and want to be able to easily see all the form submissions
   without having to scroll alot (we will have a few hundred). However, when you
   export only visible fields are exporting. Having an option to export all fields
   no matter what fields are visible in the dashboard would be nice as we always
   want to export all fields.

 * You may want to update your helper code as it does not have the “;”

       add_filter( 'cf7sg_dynamic_dropdown_taxonomy_query','show_category_taxonomy_query',10,3);

       * @param string $cf7_key  the form unique key.
       * @return array of query attributes.
       */
       function show_category_taxonomy_query($args, $name, $cf7_key){
         //these are the label users will see when the dropdown opens.
         if('2021-entry'!==$cf7_key || 'show-category' !== $name){
           return $args;
         }
         //use only the child terms of a parent.
         $args['parent']=0
         return $args;

 * Hi Aurovrata,
 * Can you put 4.8.1 in the available previous versions to download? I need to roll
   back due to another plugin that is not working with Contract Form 7 5.4 that 
   I missed in my testing.
 * Thanks,
    Doreen

 * Do you have a sample code snippet of a form that has a dynamic drop-down field
   pulling from a taxonomy that returns the name in the email instead of the slug?

 * Also, on the same form the data-max for the table isn’t working. I am thinking
   it may all be part of the same issue.

 * I tried putting this (below) in the functions.php but nothing happens. I also
   have tried using the helper code for only selecting child categories but that
   totally breaks the site. Am I missing any area of the code that I need to personalize
   to my form?

   10,3);

   field name being populated. * [@param](https://wordpress.org/support/users/param/)
   string $cf7_key the form unique key. * [@return](https://wordpress.org/support/users/return/)
   string the label for the default value, returning a non-null value with display
   this as the first option. */ function show_category_dynamic_default_option($default,
   $name, $cf7_key){ if(‘2021-entry’!==$cf7_key || ‘show-category’ !== $name){ return
   $default; } $default = ‘Please select an option…’; return $default; }
