How to 'figure out' existing fabrik set-up

[chris.paschen]

I inherited a fabrik project with no documentation and what appears to be no 'logic' how tables were named.

I have the following tables:

* books
* books_7_repeat
* books_8_repeat
* books_24_repeat
* books_46_repeat

etc.

Is there an easy way to find out where the "books_#_repeat' are used (i.e. what forms/elements)?
(looking at the specific field names doesn't really give a clue as to where the data comes from)

Any tips would be appreciated.

The tables used in Fabrik should correspond with the "lists" in Fabrik. Each List creates it's own table. And each list can contain the elements for that database.

How many forms do you have? you can look in the forms "Form Processing" tab to see what table it is referencing.

Hope that helps.

Search for list(s) linked to the books table (you can have multiple lists on the same underlying DB table).
books_xy_repeat is created by repeat groups (xy is the group id).
