Recovering Historical Form Date

Markbzim 28 May, 2014
Greetings,
A client inadvertently deleted a completed form received yesterday, I have tried a number of options incuding creating table and playing around with Chronoconnectivity but cant seem to retrieve this data.
is there a way this can be retrieved from my sql, core files?
Apologies if this has already been covered, cant seem to find a thread.
Many thanks,
Mark

Just realised I typed "date" iso "data" hope that makes sense?

Hi Mark,

If the form was not already setup to store data to a database table before this problem happened then there may be no way to retrieve the data using Chronoforms.

If the data was sent by email then they may check the deleted folder or the mail server logs to get the mail info.

Did you try ChronoMyAdmin for managing your Joomla database tables ?

No problems, but if you had emails setup then you should try to check the email logs, at least you can try to find the recipient email.

Hi Mark,

As a safety precaution it is almost always worth creating a database table and adding a DB Save action to forms as an emergency backup.
