 * Hello, I want a form where once the user presses ‘send’ it posts that info to
   a custom php file on the server that executes with that form data. Is this easy
   to do with wordpress? Do you have to install an addon for forms such as, ninja
   forms? I tried the addon; ‘ninja forms’ but didn’t find any good way to create
   my action on the send button…

 * Also, in the ninja forms there are textboxes that can have ‘required fields’.
   How can I check this with for example, a database entry in mysql? If it’s already
   there it says it to the user.

 * Maybe it is better to simply create my own form using html and then post it to
   my php file. Is it easy to integrate the wordpress themes to that? But then again
   it doesn’t have ‘required filed’ on each field that didn’t go through and that
   is a must have, so any addon for wordpress that handles this ? ‘required field’
   and ‘custom action on apply’
