Where are the chronoform tables saved?

ataylor14 08 Aug, 2014
Hello.
I have just started to use chronoforms two days ago. Thank you for creating this extension and for allowing people like me to use it.

I am looking at the option of saving form data into a table. The table was created - all ok - I can see the added data using the Chronoform interface.

However, when I want to see the table in the cpanel using phpadmin (I am using hostgator for my site) I cannot find any of the chronoform tables in my site database.

Where are the chronoform tables saved?

Thank you for your help.
Kind regards
Amelia

Hi Amelia,

Just check the table's name in the "db save" action and try to find it in your database tables list!

Hello. Thank you for the reply. I am using v5 and I \am not sure what you mean by 'dbsave'.

in Setup - Data Save i can select the table that was created (in the drop down that appear I can see the chronoform tables including the one created by me).

However if I go to cpanel in hostgator in phpAdmin and I search for the tables in the joomla database I have I cannot find them.

let me know if what I said needs more explanation.

Hi Amelia,

That sounds like a question for Hostgator. ChronoForms creates the drop-down lists by getting the table names from the database itself so they exist somewhere. Maybe you aren't looking at the current Joomla! database ???

Hello Bob
You were right! I had a look in the configuration.php file and I was indeed looking at the wrong db.
Many thanks for taking the time to answer.
