Research direction

Start by reproducing the form configuration shown in the issue with the mailing table and its field_map. Check whether a successful response is followed by an insert and whether the mapped fields match the table; done means submitted input is stored and the success message remains accurate.

Description

Stale

I've configured a form to the database table "mailing" but it doesn't receive any input, even if the form itself plays back a success message:

## Subscribe subscribe: templates: form: 'partials/_subscribe.twig' feedback: success: Deine E-Mail Adresse email wurden erfolgreich eingetragen. error: Die eingegebene E-Mail Adresse ist ungültig. database: table: name: mailing field_map: mail: 'mail' timestamp: 'lastseen_at' url: ~ path: ~ ip: 'last_ip'
