Question

I’ve created my own theme using HTML, CSS, JS which contains FORM (Emp_ID,Emp_Name, Address etc) . It has database connectivity with MySql. I’ve written database connectivity in PHP using simple PHP script and MySql query. I am going to convert this theme into the wordpress theme; but wondering how to use my MySql database in wordpress. Can anybody show me the basic and easy way to do it. If you know any easy available tutorial, please let me know. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Cheers … 🙁

this page may help otherwise you can just use your same code to interact with the wordpress database negating wordpress’s methods. (though you have to be carefull to prevent sql injection etc via your form, as you wont have the securities of the wordpress db methods)
