Enter, store and retrieve data

  • Hey community!

    I’d like to have some input about having the ability to enter data by people who register through a WP site’s front end, and then have that data stored locally on the server. This data would include PDF’s, JPG’s and a signature when people agree to the T&C’s. This data needs to be retrieved later on by site admins so they need to logon to the backend (with appropriate permissions) and retrieve this data by doing a search on people’s name, ID number, etc.

    – WPForms plugin can do this work https://wpforms.com/how-to-save-your-contact-form-data-in-wordpress-database/
    – GravityForms seems to also do this work and they say they’re the #1 form builder for WP
    – site admins should be able to logon to the back end and do a search on this info based on person’s name, ID, etc. – they both do that correct? info is stored indefinitely on the server host?
    – has anyone tried both plugins above and can recommend a preference?
    – there are other plugins that can do this work also (Kali forms) any suggestion of one that can even incorporate a signature from people registering (in PDF, JPG, or by people typing their name) and agreeing to T&C’s?
    – any plugin that incorporates confidentiality and privacy policy agreements so people know their data is not going to be given out to anyone at all?

    I look forward to your input – many thanks!

  • Your question presents an issue as forum rules here do not allow discussion of commercial plugins and Gravity Forms is totally pay only.

    And ( as far as I know ) you need the paid version of WP Forms to store data.

    You may be better served in a Facebook Group that has a lot of WordPress activity as forum rules would not apply.

    That is all true. These are not discussion forums, these topics are for supporting the users and code available on this site.

    I’m closing this topic.
