    Since I started to use this incredible plugin of course my db started growing. wp_cf7dbplugin_submits table is the one that is grown more. Now I tried to delete from ContactDB from inside WP many rows of a module that collected big files with upload from people but apparently table contents isn’t smaller. Question: deleting rows cleans also content of db or only limits what is shown from browsing application ? What is the correct way to delete contents (files uploaded) except going directly to db?
    Thank you

    Deleting a submission deletes the associated file which is saved in the DB. You can delete individual rows from the admin console, as you probably know.

    If you want to delete the associated file but not the form submission, you would have to go to the DB. You would look for and delete field entries that have a file

    select * from wp_cf7dbplugin_submits where file is not null

    You could delete these rows. That would remove the upload file field from the form submissions.
