 * Hello
 * I wonder if there is a possible way to delete the allrdy existing fields in the
   database management?
    It would be very helpfull to be able to delete the custom
   fields added by installation, and to be able to delete a field you made yourself
   but has a type or for any other reason.
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Hi there,
 * that didn’t do the trick, i changed it by going in the database and manually 
   changed it there..
    Would be nice to have an option in the plugin without the
   need to go to the database. I do miss the options to delete a field that has 
   been made or is defaulth

 * Hi
    we’ve thought about it and didn’t really come up with a decent solution. 
   thing is – if a user added a field, populated it with data, and then deleted 
   the field – all data is lost.
 * we though it better to leave it there rather then loose data by mistake.
 * any other logical solution will be considered…
    thanks Uri

 * Hello,
 * I don’t know anything about making plugins or programming.. Maybe if they delete
   a field make a pop-up explaining that data can be lost if a field is deleted 
   😉
 * Anyway, i did it by going into the database.. i don’t have much knowledge about
   sql, luckely this was pretty simple..

 * Hello again,
 * I made my first (huge) contact form, mapped all fields and then filled in the
   form to test it out, there is no lead created.. any idea what could have gone
   wrong?
 * Greeting

 * I would guess there might be some error with the contact form, can you send some
   more info – screen captures etc, or even send us login information so we can 
   check it on your server?
    info at upcrm dot com thanks Uri

 * Sorry (@yoramzara), i don’t see your connected to upicrm in any way. I think 
   it’s wrong acting as one of them and that way try to get an other plugin used.

 * Yoram Zara (Yoramzara) has offered to work with us on improving UPICRM, we have
   tried to work together for some time, and decided not to continue.
 * We have declined his offer for cooperation.
 * **Anyform is NOT UpiCRM. ** (more like using / based on our solution and code)
 * I have asked a couple of time not use this forum in answer to UPICRM users, looks
   like our request is not respected.
 * please only use UpiCRM from wordpress.org, or from [http://www.upicrm.com](http://www.upicrm.com).
 * please contact us and report misinformation .
    thanks Uri
