I am sorry I don’t know what you are asking.

I posted kind of pain in the butt manual delete instructions up a few posts if that what is what you are asking.

A temp fix.

So this will change obviously depending on what you named your DB. Log in to your DB manager and run this query from the **_posts table.

DELETE FROM wp_2posts
WHERE post_status='flamingo-spam';

Replace “wp_2posts” with whatever you have named your DB but those are the tables you want to drop.

The same should work for trash although I only tested the spam one. It is probably a good idea to run a quick backup on your DB before running these.

DELETE FROM wp_2posts
WHERE post_status='trash';

I am pretty new at wordpress so I don’t really know how to accomplish it but we could make a plugin that runs along side flamingo and overwrites that section.

This seems like a good starting point.

It seems you can override a function if it is the same function name in your child themes functions.php

I am not sure on that one though either. Sorry I can’t be more of a help.

Quick Edit: So I was thinking, if we could make a plugin to load a custom “admin/includes/meta-boxes.php” page instead of the normal one that should do it. I will look into it.

Update: I think I have found a little bit cleaner way of doing this.

<tbody>
<?php foreach ( (array) $post->fields as $key => $value ) : $alt = 0; ?>
<?php $cleaner = str_replace(array('_', '-')," ","$key"); ?>
<tr<?php $alt = 1 - $alt; echo $alt ? ' class="alt"' : ''; ?>>
<td class="field-title"><?php echo preg_replace('/\d/', '', $cleaner ); ?></td>
<td class="field-value"><?php echo flamingo_htmlize( $value ); ?></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; ?>

</tbody>

This removes “-” and “_” and numbers from the inbound message titles.

So I believe I solved the problem.

Edit line 167 in “admin/includes/meta-boxes.php”

From
<td class="field-title"><?php echo esc_html( $key ); ?></td>

To
<td class="field-title"><?php echo str_replace("_"," ","$key"); ?></td>

So when creating the questions for your form only use underscores.

So after looking into another plugin called “Contact Form 7 Modules” I see they use a script that changes the formatting of the email sent to remove extra “_” and “-” characters.

I was hoping maybe someone a little more experienced with PHP could help me modify the code to suit flamingos use.

$k = apply_filters( ‘wpcf7_send_all_fields_format_key’, true ) ? ucwords(str_replace(“-“, ” “, str_replace(“_”, ” “, $k))) : $k;

This is pulled from the plugin.
