Description
so thank you again for resolving the hanging issue - it is working perfectly...i'd like to use this not only for myself, but also open to outside users (registered users only)
is there a way to delete entries from a growing log, particularly if it gets huge and unruly (not sure how many items appear on a page by default, or if it automatically paginates or whatever)

#1
Well. Deleting feedback messages is not yet possible currently. You can mark feedback items as closed, so they are moved into the lower fieldset/table. Both tables use pagination if there are more than 50 items in a table.
The idea was to store feedback messages infinitely for later reference and (later) possible user integration/interaction, i.e. displaying own feedback items in a user's profile and communicating that a feedback led to improvements.
However, I can see the need for deleting Spam submissions...
#2
hmm, maybe a simple mark as spam that "hides" the item?? i can't imagine that the table will ever get ridiculously huge because the typical feedback is so tiny (maybe if it gets to tens of thousands of items?)
and then spam could just be a sort of archive - hidden from screen view but really just 'processed and not displayed' with an admin option to view items marked spam
(could be called "hide for now" or "archive" or something more general since it may not be confined to spam...

Sun, I just wanted to see if anything ever became of this. I was looking into adding this on one of my projects, but deleting spam entries seems like something that'd be nice to have, first. :)
