Database management

A few questions on GF and the site’s database.

  1. Does deleting an entry also delete all database rows associated with that entry? Is there any instance when deleting an entry would not remove all rows associated with that specific entry?

  2. Where in the database specifically is all the information from an entry stored?

Thanks.

Hi Thomas.

  1. Yes, deleting an entry permanently (not moving it to the Trash) will delete the rows from the database and any files that were uploaded and attached to that entry. I can’t think of an instance where permanently deleting and entry would not remove the associated information from the entry tables.
  2. The entry information is stored in these tables (assuming your database prefix is wp_:
  • wp_gf_entry
  • wp_gf_entry_meta
  • wp_gf_entry_notes

There are other tables related to Gravity Forms, but these are the only ones related to entries.

If you have any other questions, please let us know.
