    The office admin wanted to be able to download form data to a spreadsheet for reference if their ISP goes down, and did not want to go into dashboard operations. I created a passworded page with direct navigation only (not linked on the site). Once passworded into the page, a data form appears with export link. No login required.

    ‘wp_cf7dbplugin_submits’ is a table within the SQL database (note above, the ‘wp_’ prefix may be different for your installation). Tables cannot be viewed on a file list. A couple of options that I am aware of (1) Use phpMyAdmin to get into the database. Often provided via cPanel (control panel) on the host but not all hosts provide cPanel. In which case, searching the internet, there are ways to install/use phpMyAdmin with ftp. Then you can export data to an SQL file. Several factors may be involved to make sure the data is named correctly for import your new installation. (2) Use the export feature in CFDB, under Advanced. Notice link to documentation.

    Yes, please! Remove the yellow dot! Let me opt out! I am searching for how to do just that and find this thread. Add my vote! Already see red dots for plugin updates and receive the email for that plus any other issues. Great plugin! No need for such loud tactics. VERY annoying.

    Resolved. Searched CSS lingo then found a match in style editor. Experimenting. May not yet have this exactly right but thus far is working to stop words from breaking on the grid calendar for events and holidays. Disabling all remaining lines greatly affects the grid box layout, even when leaving the margin line active, thus I am leaving the last four lines active. Maybe this tidbit will help someone else. Your style editor contents may be different.

    .mc-main event-title mc-holiday { /* turn off word breaks on grid calendar */
    -ms-word-break: keep-all; /* was break-all; */
    word-break: keep-all; /* was break-all; */
    word-break: keep-word; /* was break-all; */
    -webkit-hyphens: auto;
    -moz-hyphens: auto;
    hyphens: auto;
    margin: 0 !important;
    }

    Thanks for all!

    Thank you. Previously could not set links within the description, copied links that worked elsewhere, no typos. Disabled editors in case of interference but no fix. Then another day I CAN set links in an event description. Something may have fixed with the recent batch of WP/theme/plugin updates. Good.

    Yet I still cannot use HTML such as ‘p style’ or ‘span style’ to size/color text strings within the description. I can only use ‘b’, ’em’, and ‘u’. Is this normal behavior for this plugin, is there another technique to use (example?), or do I have a conflict somewhere?

    Have worked out much with the style sheet. However, as html is stripped out of an event description, how can we style/highlight a limited text string within the description via the style sheet? Also, how to make a link within an event description via style sheet? (Not wishing to use the structured link fields for various reasons). Knew how to do html now learning CSS. Thank you for all pointers.

    In reply to: Editing My Calendar

    Hi, me too. Were you able to work it out? Trick is to figure out which elements to make CSS adjustments to within the My Calendar – Style Editor for whichever calendar view you are targeting. Use Inspector and View Page Source when viewing website to help narrow it down. Hope these examples help. You can insert additional values such as color: #0000FF; etc. In some cases the elements you need to style are not yet on the style sheet you are using, you will have to add them in. Keep notes while experimenting!

    .mc-main .details p {
    margin: 0 0 1em;
    line-height: 1.0; /* was 1.7 */
    font-size: 88%; /* new */
    }

    .mc-main .details h2, .mc-main .details h3 {
    font-weight: 700;
    font-size: 88%; /* was 1.4em*/
    line-height: 1.3;
    }

    Ah so that explains why my event list is NOT in date order! Nearly three weeks and no answer to this issue. Too bad, I cannot use it like this.

    This *IS* a widget, so would not add it to another widget. Simply place it wherever you are allowed to insert a widget. If your theme/etc. does not allow you to place widgets at the top of your website or other preferred spot, and does not already provide shortcode capability, then choose a shortcode plugin to install/test (there are many). Wrap this widget into a shortcode. Then place that shortcode wherever you are allowed to place HTML code. Hope that helps.

    My fix: WF scan was stalling in wee hours. Tried changing times (as can do w/premium). No matter 2am, 3am, 4am, 5am would almost never complete. Finding it was hung for several hours, I would cancel that scan, wait, and initiate a new scan. Which would complete — but only after I returned to that open scan tab on my browser. When I would return to that tab, sometimes sooner, sometimes later, the log would suddenly roll fast to the end and say completed. Every time.

    Thus, wondering if WF somehow rides on site activity? Supposedly 20-60 human visits daily, daylight hours. So I set the WF scan time to 10am — and haven’t hung again! No matter if I am on the site or not! Changing scan time to busier period might help someone else with light traffic?

    I use a scheduled backup plugin that the developer says must have some live traffic to complete, and if it is activated manually must keep the tab open until complete. So this theory is not completely off base. Please can you say if WF might have the same requirement, to ride on open connections? Seems to behave that way. Thank you.

    Interesting! At this date I see:

    – GoDaddy basic WordPress hosting is $3.99/mo “1 website, 10GB SSD storage, 25,000 monthly visitors (hmm, not qualified as Human visitors), SFTP access, Free domain with annual plan”. Also GoDaddy offers Linux $3.99/mo “1 website, 100 GB storage, Unlimited bandwidth, 100 email addresses, Free domain* with annual plan”. For unlimited domains, space, bandwidth cannot be done under their “WordPress Hosting” plans. Not clear why GD separates WordPress hosting packages from Linux packages … Their Linux shared server with CPanel host interface is $8.99/mo.

    – GreenGeeks basic hosting is $3.96/mo “Unlimited Domains on 1 Account, secure IMAP/POP3 E-mail Accounts, Unlimited Web Space & Data Transfer, FREE Marketing & SEO Tools, FREE Domain Name Registration or Transfer, 24/7/365 US-Based Support, FREE Site Building Tools, 99.9% Service Uptime, FREE Website Migration” Their shared servers are Linux-Apache, all accounts include CPanel. Can upgrade to VPS later if/when needed.

    That is one example, check alternatives out there. Given the upfront GoDaddy limitations, and your intentions to exceed them, it is no greater cost to host elsewhere (leave domain registrations at GD). Important — does GD WordPress hosting include CPanel (do you already have CPanel)? Must have.

    If you are paid long term on GD yet wish to host live elsewhere, use the remaining GD time as a separate development-testing site. No need for additional domain names (test.domainname.zzz, set A Records).

    Also interested to know, entertaining some ideas. I notice human visits are the least of traffic. By far the greater traffic is crawlers and wannabe hackers/bots. Maybe can ward off the hacker faction with Wordfence or such. Maybe have to go with premium version for best efficiency. How quickly can you get 100-300 subsites up, realistically? Maybe use a shared host that has pathway to VPS so can start out economically, shakeout procedures, then switch up when the need grows without having to switch host. Currently I know GreenGeeks can do that, expect others are out there.

    On premium and find no further defines. In case it helps, though, new site on WF only a few months and our list duplicates everything on yours, with more below where you cut off.

    BTW Weaver II Theme phasing out, superseded by Weaver Xtreme Theme, used both and continuing. Options to tweak and insert code plus integral mobile responsiveness. Add the Weaver Xtreme Plus extension for even deeper options. Excellent support forum. Might be less hassle than two builds but don’t know what I don’t know, curious, maybe it is more effective to keep mobile separate for some situations? (Edit, oops I see we time-crossed.)

    Hi, snippet from my shortcode in case this might help. Note that I use datatable, not table, so you will have to experiment; “myid” is made-up on the spot to be unique, does not reference a previously existing element:
    [cfdb-datatable form=”Name-Of-My-Form” id=”myid” style=”#myid td {font-size:120%;}” orderby=”Submitted” show=”…. etc….
    Good luck!
