Getting at the data now I have it

[JanieeDee]

I’m very new to WordPress and am trying to build a new design for amdram.co.uk (designed by someone else who isn’t helping anymore). Basically loads of different people enter data which I then need to be able to manipulate and display. I have designed a form for one of these types of data and have it stored in an SQL database. My question is, how do I actually use and display this data on my website? Am I missing something obvious or doesn’t this plugin do that?

Thanks

Jane

Hi

Yes I did notice it there, but visitors to my site need to be able to search the data on different criteria. I thought this plugin did this and not just collected the data – damn. And you’re right, I will need a developer 🙁

Hey Jane,

sorry to reopen this threat. I would recommend to check out http://codecanyon.net/item/wpdatatables-responsive-tables-in-wordpress/3958969

I am using this very frequently to display data from a submitted forms which are stored in a custom table.

Another nice option would be:

Creating a post

In both you may look for some help if you’re not too familiar with WordPress.

Hope I could help.

Best regards,
