Contact Form forms id

Question

I created a form on my local environment which I needed to use on the live site. I followed Contact Form documentation for exporting importing the forms:

https://contactform7.com/faq/how-can-i-export-import-contact-form-data/

Forms are imported correctly, however, with different ids. I need to keep the same id, because I use them to show the forms.

Why does CF imports the forms with different ids?

Solution?

Thank you.

Answer 1

Usually databases tend to generate unique ids, try changing that to a set variable and assign a specific value.
