Hi Javvad,

If you just want to add data to a database (from a form), certainly.

When dealing with WordPress you'll want to use the global $wpdb variable. Using the $wpdb variable you can handle form data to a database the same as you would in any other PHP application and MySQL.

Hope this helps.

Cheers Liam
