I am an old programmer (oracle DBA for DOTNET) from 10 years ago. I am trying to create a prayer list in our church's website. This was SO CLEAR even a programmer could understand. I hope you have lessons on how to display the data. I will add a statue field and based on that display current prayer requests and add a counter. I have been looking for the HOW TO and love it.

Hello Tony. Thanks a lot for the Video!
You say "everytime a form is submitted", what if i got many forms with different inputs for different databases. How can I get the input for the right Form?
For example: FormX: Name(PK), Email, Message --> Database Demo
FormY: Age, Country, Name(FK) --> Database Customer

Many thanks for sharing your knowledge with us all - this video certainly helped me to understand the complexities with WP, Elementor and MYSQL. As a non-developer I have a question if I may.

I like the idea of adding data from forms to MySQL data Tables (defiantly will help with analysis) my question is how I adjust the php code to allow data form a single input form to be saved to several data tables i.e. a client sign up form that will save data to the following data tables - client_info, address_details etc

I have been able to do this with HTML, CSS and PHP but am struggeling with doing the same whilst using Elementor Forms

All said this was a great video and looking forward to watch all you have to offer - great job

Great vid! Couple q's about the data:
1) where would that data be hosted and how could you make sure that you are the sole owner and only person with access to the data?
2) how could you connect the data base to scripts that would run calculation on each new database entry and markup a pdf to send back to user?
Thanks!

It works for me! Thanks for the tutorial

Good one Tony. If you don't want to touch theme editor files, you can also choose webhook as your after submit action. Provide a php file url, the file would accept the post request and insert the data into your db.
