 * Hello! I’ve been having some problems with my cforms plugin and I tried to re-
   install it by completely deleting cforms from plugins but my old forms keep appearing
   when I install it again. I can’t figure out where the information is saved other
   than the cforms folder. Please help me!

   post for a long time.

 * Looked in the database?
 * If i remember correctly, cforms creates it’s own table for storing data.

 * Thanks for the reply! I don’t know how the database works. Is it in a file on
   my server?

 * not really…. how you get there depends on your host.
 * On Godaddy, I log into my host, then find a tab that says SQL databases, from
   there I find a link that syas manage via phpmyadmin
 * That gets me into the database, from there I can see all the tables, add, modify,
   empty, delete them
 * If you can’t figure out how to find your DB by looking around, you may just have
   to ask your host

 * OOOH right! Thanks! It should be there. I’ll contact my host to try and find 
   out which one.

 * For anyone else trying to erase all the cforms data, I found out that it’s done
   from the cforms global settings – uninstall. Then deactivate and delete the plugin.
