Thanks James! I have a similar video that goes through a basic CRUD implementation which I think you'll find helpful too ruclips.net/video/poYpLnYOp3g/видео.html
Tony 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
Thanks! Was also wondering if since you’ve custom coded that submit event - that if, say, you wanted to also send an email AND REDIRECT user if you would have to also accomplish that in the same code block - I presume so - or can one add multiple actions after submit ? Is there any “run code” option available through the interface directly - it seemed you had to leave the reservation and custom code the event in the child theme as your only custom option. All good if so - just curious
Thanks for this Tony, it's helped me out a lot, however, I want to add a photo upload to the form. So I added another column to my database called 'photo' and added a line in the functions.php - 'photo' => $fields['photo'], but when I submit the form it displays '0' in the photo column. How is it really done? Cheers.

Hi Tony! Thank you for this tutorial, it was very helpful for me too! How can I display those submissions (saved in the database) in the front-end with Elementor Pro? I have created a guestbook with Elementor Form and I want to dynamically display those submissions saved in the DB. Also, if I remove a submission I think it still exists on the DB. Thank you in advance.
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.
@@TonyTeachesTech thanks for commenting here. I watched your other video where you processed "addition" and returned the sum to an HTML. My question to that is, how do I pass that returned data to Email action? Something tells me the mail fires before that data arrived. Any direction would be appreciated. Thanks
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!
1. The data is hosted in a table in the same database as your WordPress site. If you own this, then you also own the Elementor data. 2. This is possible, but would require you to hire a developer to write a custom solution. I'm not aware of an existing solution for this
finally i found it.. this is exaaactly what I'm looking for.. Hey Tony, i'd be great if you complete it with tutorial to show the table on the page using elementor.. thanks anyway
Hey Tony Is it possible to do the same with formulator Forms? Like if I create a form on forminator, so will I be able to save that form data to a custom table in myphpadmin.
hi, how to set login page as we enter the website? I want to make web portal using elementor. but getting stopped out because of the flow. in PHP we set login page and move it in the beginning of folder htdocs and named it index.php but how to showed it in elementor? how does we set first page in elementor is login page before it redirect to dasboard after login of course, and how to connect users and password database in phpmyadmin to match in login page? thanks
How could I collect forms from visitors on my site and then add a search feature so users can search for the data for those filled out forms? For example, I am working on a site where customers can come and input a negative review of XYZ place and I want the data to be sent to a database which then people can search for XYZ place on the homepage and see what negative reviews that place has. Any advice, Tony?
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
HI, this was very useful, thanks a lot. I was wondering whether I can just go to appearance/customize/additional css and add the code there or is it better to install the child theme?
That's a good question. I don't think one way is better than the other. If you have the child theme installed, I guess I would suggest there in case the main theme for some reason removes your custom CSS during an update or something.
It is always better to install a child theme. Otherwise, any customization you do at the parent theme level will be overwritten when there is an update.
Hi Tony! Thank you for this video! How do I update a field in the usermeta? For example I want to update the Facebook URL using my customized Elementor page. Thank you in advance!
Hi Tony, your tutorial has been very good, you gave me a solution that I was looking for. however, suppose that the $ fields (message) has three options, separated by three Fields in the form, field A, field C, field D, how would you make the array 👉 $ wpdb-> insert ('table', array (' name '=> $ fields [' name '],' email '=> $ fields [' email '],' message '=> $ fields [' $ fieldA, $ fieldB, $ fieldC '])); is that correct? remember that my question is if three fields of the form separated by comma "," could go in the message field !!!
Using this method, how can you do this for multiple forms on your website and put the data into their own separate tables? (Example: Form1 > Form1Table and Form2 > Form2Table) Thank you for creating this video!
This is a great tutorial! However, I notice you omitted adding a unique ID (primary key) for the new table. Wouldn't you want to be able to associate the table with other data in the database and therefore would need to have a primary and foreign key for each record? Also, I'm trying to understand what the use case would be for doing this since Elementor records all its submissions in the e_submissions and the e_submissions_values tables. Couldn't I just learn how to work with these tables instead of creating a new table for my form submissions?
i dont know when you will answer this Tony but i would wish to know.if i installed wordpress locally on my machine ,and installed xampp on my machine,would the code snippet you provide work?i would wish to create a form with my own fields maybe to store my shop inventory.otherwise thank alot for the light.i appreciate this tutorial
Is possible create more forms with each their own table? In your code where is the "link" of the Elementor's form? 'elementor_pro/forms/new_record'? But in the example the form's name is 'New Form'.......
Hi Federico. You can certainly have multiple forms. Distinguish between them with their 'id' on the server like this: if ( 'MY_FORM_NAME' == $form_name ) { // do something } else if ( 'MY_OTHER_FORM' == $form_name ) { // do something else } .... developers.elementor.com/forms-api/#Form_New_Record_Action
To read data you would use the wpdb class as we did in this video, but call the get_row function. Please refer to the WordPress developer documentation here developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wpdb/#select-a-row To return the data, see what I do in this tutorial here ruclips.net/video/Mdn2gFodpy0/видео.html&t=997 (I recommend you watch the whole thing) To display it on a page, watch the linked tutorial in its entirety and that should do it.
Putting this out for anyone to chime in, but does anyone know how in wordpress or elementor to get the data that was submitted to pop up on the page as a confirmation for the user to see what they had just sent after they hit submit button?
This will work wether you have a child theme installed or not, but I highly recommend installing a child theme. Otherwise when you edit functions.php, you’ll find lots of other code in that file. This goes for other themes like Medicalpress. If there is a child theme for Medicalpress, use that. If not, this will still work, but just be careful when editing functions.php. Please note that this only applies to Elementor Pro. PS: I saw you comment on the blog post too :)
You can log into your database on the command line and execute raw SQL commands to delete individual rows. Also, if you have something like phpMyAdmin installed, you can do this through a web browser ruclips.net/video/crfAj9yay5w/видео.html

Thanks, Tony for very useful tips. I'm looking for a method to create a unique id containing text + number like ORD001. How can I achieve this in elementor form? This id should be automatically increased as the user fills the form. Can you please help me with that?
In your PHP code, if you already have a number, then you can do something like: $old_num = 1; $new_num = $old_num + 1; $length = 3; $id = "ORD".str_pad($new_num, $length, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);

Yes you can achieve this with custom HTML/PHP, but it requires some coding and design to show the data to the user before submitting it to the db
@@TonyTeachesTech easy way wp data tables plugin, im working on this right now, what tony shares plus data tables to show and manage the data.

@@kenmelitado7952 Sorry Ken, I'm not familiar with WPForms
Thanks, Tony for very useful tips. I'm looking for a method to create a unique id containing text + number like ORD001. How can I achieve this in elementor form? This id should be automatically increased as the user fills the form. Can you please help me with that?
In your PHP code, if you already have a number, then you can do something like:
$old_num = 1;
$new_num = $old_num + 1;
$length = 3;
$id = "ORD".str_pad($new_num, $length, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);
@@TonyTeachesTech Thanks so much!
Well, can we send the same form data to the mail at the end of this process?
Yes, just make sure to add the Mail "Actions after submit"

Hello sir great tutorial helped me alot but I am trying something to validate the data that is existing in DB. please help me out in this
I'm trying to verify the file number whether it exist in Database or not if it exists it give success message, if not then show invalid number. My Tab has only one col i.e fileNumber. This is the code I have tried to put in the child theme in functions.php. when I enter the file number in the name field this code only show the statement after else statement ($ajax_handler->add_error( $field['id'], 'Invalid number' );). is there any other way to do this?
here is the code
add_action( 'elementor_pro/forms/validation', function ( $record, $ajax_handler ) {
$fields = $record->get_field( ['id' => 'name1',] );
if ( empty( $fields ) ) {
echo "enter the file number";
}
$field = current( $fields );
global $wpdb;
if($wpdb->connect_error){
echo 'Connection Failed: ';
}
$sql = $wpdb->get_results( "select fileNumber from wpbd_FileNumbers where fileNumber like '%$field%'");
/* $sql="select * from $wpdb->wp_FileNumbers where fileNumber like '%$field%'";*/
if($sql == $field){
$ajax_handler->add_response_data( true, $output );
}
else
$ajax_handler->add_error( $field['id'], 'Invalid number' );
}, 10, 2);
Does this work with code snippets? My child theme did not have a functions.php, so I followed the instructions for code snippets but it did not work. Any help is appreciated
I think all themes should have functions.php. This will not work with code snippets alone

Hello, great video,
Any idea how to prevent form clearing data after Submit?
I'm looking for this option, not sure should it be done through javascript...
Solved with following 2 lines (if anyone got also stucked) :
jQuery( document ).on('submit_success', function(event, response){
document.getElementById("answer").innerHTML = response.data['1'].result;
var old_value = $("#form-field-a").val();
$("#form-field-a").attr("value", old_value).val("").focus().blur();
});
Let me know if this aproach is good, thx ;)

Olá Tony, poderia ilustrar como poderia ser feito usando um id para cada tabela ? ex, form1: quero que ele grave na tabela demo1, form2: quero que ele salve na tabela form2
// form elementor
add_action( 'elementor_pro/forms/new_record', function( $record, $ajax_handler ) {
$raw_fields = $record->get( 'fields' );
$fields = [];
foreach ( $raw_fields as $id => $field ) {
$fields[ $id ] = $field['value'];
}
// form 1
global $wpdb;
$output['success'] = $wpdb->insert('form1', array( 'nome' => $fields['nome'], 'email' => $fields['email'], 'ddd' => $fields['ddd'],'telefone' => $fields['telefone'], 'ddd2' => $fields['ddd2'], 'telefone2' => $fields['telefone2']));
// form 2
global $wpdb;

Could you do a video tutorial on how to add a database to google cloud server and the sent the data there. Example: I bought my domain name I set up free hosting with google cloud the installed word press now need a php database....
This video should be exactly what you're looking for ruclips.net/video/3isdcAEZoq0/видео.html, if not please let me know. You'll just need to install PHP and MySQL as a prerequisite
Hey Tony thanks for the tutorial. I did everything, but for some reason it doesn't work for me. I'm not getting any error messages, the information simply doesn't go into the table I created and it stays blank. I use the standard myPhp admin of goDaddy. Also, I don't have "functions.php" on my admin, I have header.php, footer.php, index.php and sidebar.php. I tried to put the snippet in header.php and index.php, and none of them worked. Suggestions?
*Update* - I found functions.php and copied the snippet there, but still doesn't work :(
You should have and will need to put the code in functions.php. Are you in the right place?
