Title: upload data to data base Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # upload data to data base * [train of hope](https://wordpress.org/support/users/train-of-hope/) * (@train-of-hope) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upload-data-to-data-base/) * Hi, * I have an excel spreadsheet that I would like to add to the database of data collected by ‘contact form 7’ – does anyone know if CFDB has the capabilities of doing this? * Does anyone know where the database is stored? Perhaps I can save the info into that file? * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-to-database-extension/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-to-database-extension/) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * Plugin Author [Michael Simpson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/msimpson/) * (@msimpson) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upload-data-to-data-base/#post-6466161) * If the data is saved as a CSV file, then you can input it if you [purchase the CFDB Editor](http://cfdbplugin.com/?page_id=459). * Note: Dates and numbers are stored as text in the format they are shown in the CSV file. * Thread Starter [train of hope](https://wordpress.org/support/users/train-of-hope/) * (@train-of-hope) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upload-data-to-data-base/#post-6466232) * cheers thanks Michael. Let me chat to my boss and she if she gives me the go- ahead. Another question (if you don’t mind) I have noticed that when I use a short code to display the results of the data entered into contact form 7, it doesn’t appear to show on a mobile device. Any idea as to why that is? * Thanks for your time craig * Plugin Author [Michael Simpson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/msimpson/) * (@msimpson) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upload-data-to-data-base/#post-6466233) * I’m guessing that you are using the [cfdb-datatable] short code. It’s Javascript or CSS might not display right on mobile. * You might try adding the dataTables.responsive.min.js like shown here: [https://www.datatables.net/extensions/rowreorder/examples/initialisation/responsive.html](https://www.datatables.net/extensions/rowreorder/examples/initialisation/responsive.html) * I’ll need to investigate integrating that into the CFDB code by default. * Thread Starter [train of hope](https://wordpress.org/support/users/train-of-hope/) * (@train-of-hope) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upload-data-to-data-base/#post-6466238) * great. thanks for getting back to me so fast. I’m reading that link – so I just need to use that javascript code in my template file I guess? (I’m quite new to web development and wordpress) * Thanks for a great plugin by the way. It’s much appreciated having people like you making the lives of people like me (the non coders of the world) a lot easier 🙂 * Plugin Author [Michael Simpson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/msimpson/) * (@msimpson) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upload-data-to-data-base/#post-6466294) * I don’t know if that will work. I haven’t had time to investigate. * Thread Starter [train of hope](https://wordpress.org/support/users/train-of-hope/) * (@train-of-hope) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upload-data-to-data-base/#post-6466297) * i was just testing out the [cfdb-datatable] displaying in various browsers. I can see if fine in firefox but not at all in chrome and internet explorer. * Don’t suppose you have any quick fixes? * Plugin Author [Michael Simpson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/msimpson/) * (@msimpson) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upload-data-to-data-base/#post-6466298) * I see [cfdb-datatable] displaying just fine in Chrome & IE on my site: [http://cfdbplugin.com/?page_id=7](http://cfdbplugin.com/?page_id=7) * Perhaps some CSS on your site is conflicting. * [Bolder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bolder/) * (@bolder) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upload-data-to-data-base/#post-6466313) * Hi Michael, Download update 1.4.1 didn’t work.
