I’m trying to debug why my app will not save new fields that I have added to my local database. Can we see the local database with Chrome Dev Tools when testing in the browser?
I just can’t figure out why my new fields that I added to my app will not save. I created a local database with a handful of fields for testing and had success. Then I added all that I needed which was quite a bit more. I added only a few of the new fields into the UI of the app for testing and those did not work. I was than advised to clear my cache and delete / reinstall the phone testing app to fix this. After doing those things I was able to get the added fields working. So now I’ve added all the fields I need but can’t seem to save anything past the few I just added. Even after doing the same cache and app cleaning.

When you are referring to new fields, are you referring to new columns in the Local Database or new rows?

New columns that I have added to the local database.

I just commented on another post for a similar issue. LocalDB is saved under the data of the app not the cache and therefore clearing the cache would not remove the phone’s copy of your Local DB.
