Exclude Certain Form Fields?

    We have form data that we’d like to save as a backup after a recent email issue. However, the form contains a few sensitive fields that I’d rather not store on the server. It’s also not essential information if we’re talking an emergency situation and just need to know who submitted forms and how to contact them.

    Is there a way to exclude certain form fields from saving?

    Thanks!

    Hi

    Can you not generate a CSV and then remove the sensitive data afterward?

    I want to get away from keeping the sensitive data on the server. The user submits their social security number as part of the application form they’re submitting. I’d like to keep a record of submission in case there’s an emails sending error. However, it’s not critical that I save all of these SSN’s because we’re using this as a backup and a means to contact the users should there be an email issue.

    Is there a way where I can prevent your plugin from saving specific fields? Excluding them from the database to begin with?

    Hi bhmedia

    You can’t select which fields to export at the moment.

    I will look into the possibility of adding this in a future version.
