在Joomla模板中使用PHP

Question

I'm developing a site using joomla template. I want to create a registration form & I design it with html in a Joomla Article. For data passing to db I have created a PHP file. But I have a problem in submitting data. I gave form action="php file name" & I save the PHP file in index path. But system is not working. Please tell me where I need to save that PHP file & how to link my joomla article & PHP file ???

Answer 1

Create a custom file upload component and upload your php files. Create a menu item for your component and assign a PHP file to menu you want to show your registration form on and finally at front-end include PHP file in your view.

Answer 2

Create a folder inside plugins in main directory. Name it whatever you like, lets say, "customplugin". Put your form handling file in that. Give the absolute path of this file in the form action URL.

This should work. Also, kindly check if the form tags are coming correctly in the article.

As others are saying, you are actually not using the Joomla CMS properly, but anything and everything is possible...
