I currently have a site with front end adding of posts through FP input template. They are added in a draft state to allow oversight before items are displayed to the web.
I am trying to find the best way to go about finding items in a draft state, reviewing, promoting / deleting entries.
I can do what I need through the WP Posts page being able to see the status “Draft” next to the title. However, deleting an item here, does not appear to update the Formidable Pro Entries.
Is adding a post through a FP input template supposed to duplicate data in both WP Posts (wp_posts) and FP Entriest (wp_frm_items)?
To delete an item, is it expected to match up and delete the item in both locations?
What would be considered best practice for managing user entries, moving them from draft to accepted, or if not are deleted?
Thanks!

It doesn't matter where you edit and delete posts. The data is not duplicated. However, the Formidable entry will not be deleted while the post is still in the trash, but is deleted when the trash is emptied.

awsome! - I was wondering what that "empty trash" was used for :P
thanks again - works great! ;)
