Removing redundant data safely

    Hi Conor,

    Having put in some test data and usual trial and error in start-up we now have some items in Recent Results that I wish to remove having corrected a few registered user profiles.

    To explain – I had to pre-register all athletes for our system as did not want to open up registration to everyone (having been hacked into before). I made an error on one user and only used their first name. I have since corrected this but now wish to remove that result (Tracy) that appears in recent results page for February 2014.

    Would it be a case of logging into PhPMyAdmin and traversing the SQL results table?

    Thanks

    Hi Daz,

    This looks like something we should implement, being able to remove/edit recent results as people do make mistakes in it.

    For the moment, yes you’re only solution is to manually manipulate the data in the database using something like phpMyAdmin, you’re looking for the wpa_log table.

    Cheers,

    Conor.
