Managing Form Submissions
Every time someone submits one of your forms, Convert Forms stores the entry so you can review it later. The Submissions list in the backend is where all of that lives: you can read entries, edit them, search and filter, change which columns you see, delete what you don't need, and export everything to a file.
Prefer not to keep entries at all? You can turn off submission storage per form.
Editing Form Submissions
Need to fix a typo in someone's entry, add an internal note, or change a submission's status? You can open any submission and edit it directly from the backend. Just head to the Submissions list and click the submission's ID.
The edit screen shows the data the visitor submitted, a status selector, an internal notes field for your team, and read-only details like IP, country, device, and the page the form was submitted from.

Submission Context Tracking
Beyond the values people enter, Convert Forms automatically records context for every submission: where the visitor came from, the campaign that brought them in, their device, their IP address, and their location. No hidden fields or extra setup required.
You can view this data on each submission, show it as columns in the list, or include it in an export.

Searching and Filtering Submissions
Once you've collected a few hundred entries, scrolling isn't an option. Convert Forms gives you filters to narrow the list down quickly: by period, form, keyword, and status.
You can combine them to answer questions like "show me all submissions for the Contact form from last month that are still unpublished."

Customizing Submission Columns
The Submissions list doesn't have to show every field. With the Columns picker, you decide exactly which columns appear, in what order. Show the fields you care about, hide the rest, and drag them into the order that makes sense for you.

Deleting Form Submissions
Spam entries, test submissions, or data you no longer need can be removed. Convert Forms uses a two-step approach: trash first (reversible), then empty the trash to delete permanently.
To keep the list clean without doing it by hand, you can also auto-delete old submissions on a schedule.

Importing Form Submissions
Convert Forms doesn't import submissions through the interface, but if you're migrating data from another site or system, you can insert it straight into the database with a tool like phpMyAdmin.

Exporting Form Submissions
Need your submissions outside of Joomla? Export them to a CSV or JSON file to import into a CRM, a spreadsheet, or any other system. You choose the form, the period, the status, and exactly which columns end up in the file.
