old files

Permalink
I did an upgrade to my old site to the newer version of concrete. I failed to pull my "form results" from the dashboard of my old site and folders prior to doing a redirect to my new folders. I still have my old folders and files in the ftp and can still access them. My question is, can I still download my form results? I have searched but do not see anything similar or even familiar to my registration forms. Can anybody help.

So your form data is stored in the database, not the file system.

It still should be there unless something went off with your upgrade...

Did you delete the old forms or something? What do you mean new folders.

I guess the short answer is if its gone from the dashboard and you don't have a backup of the database, no.

Well, I guess that is part of my question. I'm not sure how concrete stores these types of files/folders. Can I still access the folders somehow? I have not deleted anything, I just did a redirect from one set of files (the old, original concrete site/folders) to the new upgraded concrete folders. I can still see my old files/folders in my ftp server, they are named "main". My new site folders are named "site". I never delete anything for archiving purposes. Is there a chance they are still stored in this area or possibly somewhere else? . My dilemma is, I built this site for a charter school, the form results are the registration applications for kids!! I know, dumb dumb chicken little!! Any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!

you need to be looking in the database, or database backup, for this information

Ask your webhost if they have backups of your database, or get in there and poke around. Look for the tables btFormAnswers and btFormAnswerSet
