form tools did not save the data in my database table

[pepsimax]

HI
I installed formtools today.
After using this tool and it confirming my submission was successful when I completed a form, there is nothing in the database table where I want to save my form data. Also there are 36 tables created by form tools in here! Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Also I don't like having 36 tables in my database for one little form created by FormTools.
Cheers.

Hi Pepsi,

Thanks for the post!

Form Tools does a LOT of stuff: all those tables are needed for the various functionality that Form Tools offers. I'm afraid that that's just the way it works - it really isn't bloated at all: all the tables serve a specific purpose, and any non-necessary functionality was removed and placed in a separate (optional) module.

All new forms configured with Form Tools will also get their own unique table to store their data.

So with regard to your problem: after it says you submission was successful, did you finish off setting up the form? If so, once that's all done, you should now see submissions being added to your table (probably named ft_form_1 - depending on your form prefix).
