Turn off form submission data save for specified form?

  1. So - I'm using GFs to submit a user's details to a DB query - we don't want GF saving these user data formss to the DB - it might be bad for DB bloat if thousands of queries are being saved a week. Is there away to specify a specific GF form to not save it's data to the DB on submit, but merely pass it through as requested?

    Seems like it might be an obvious thing that i'm overlooking, but maybe not.
    Thanks ahead of time for the help.

    You aren't missing anything. Gravity Forms by default, doesn't have an override to stop things from being saved in the database. You could in the post_submission hook remove the lead from the database. But that's as close to keeping it clear as I can provide you.

  3. Thanks David - might be a useful feature to add in future releases?

    I'll let the dev team know, and we shall see. I think it is already on the list though.
