Collecting user data
How would I go about collecting site user data via a form on my textpattern site and collect this data in a database? Please forgive me if this is easy, I’m new to this database stuff. I can see how you can get contact forms happening and send data to an email address, but I’m unclear on how to send input form data to a database.
Thanks.

Re: Collecting user data
use the zem_contact_reborn plugin and write a plugin to hook into the submit callback event and write the data to a database.

Re: Collecting user data
Thanks. I’m sure that’s the way to do it but I don’t have any idea how to write a plugin. I’ll look into it, but in the meantime does anyone know if one is already in existence?

Re: Collecting user data
Would you be able to create the database table yourself, so the plugin would only have to store the information?
