That’s a good question. The short answer is, the address data is actually deleted, as best as I can tell.
To test this, I have logged into phpMyAdmin to look at the database. I have selected one individual to test. I can see that in the wp_connections table, under the addresses field, her address information is displayed as seen below:
a:1:{i:971262657278;a:14:{s:4:”type”;s:4:”work”;s:10:”visibility”;s:6:”public”;s:6:”line_1″;s:16:”9595 Nelson Road”;s:6:”line_2″;s:5:”Box B”;s:6:”line_3″;s:0:””;s:4:”city”;s:8:”Longmont”;s:5:”state”;s:2:”CO”;s:7:”zipcode”;s:10:”80501-6359″;s:7:”country”;s:13:”United States”;s:8:”latitude”;d:40.173327700000002;s:9:”longitude”;d:-105.1142011;s:2:”id”;N;s:9:”preferred”;b:0;s:5:”order”;i:0;}}
When I go into the Connections/cMap interface and I go into editing mode for this individual, her address info is not displayed on the editing page. When I click on the Update button, I can see that the address info is now gone when I view the web page, and when I refresh the table through phpMyAdmin, I see that the addresses field is now blank for this individual. This is what makes me think that the data is actually deleted.
Thank you!
