    Hello,
    I’m trying to insert some data to DB from Add new post page. I created two fields, where user write first and last name and than click on button to send to DB, but whatever I try does not work. The code I’m using is:
    <button type="submit" name="submit">Submit</button>

    if(isset($_POST['submit'])){

    insert_player();
    }

    Function insert_player definitely work for 100%. It seems the click on a button not start function at all.

    Thank you.

    No, it uses <?php $wpdb->insert( $table, $data, $format ); ?> method from https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Class_Reference/wpdb

    The function looks like this:

    $wpdb->insert('wp_scores',
      array(
              'first_name'=>$match_options['first_nameP'],
              'last_name'=>$match_options[last_nameP],
              'forfeit'=>'1',
              'lost'=>'1',
              'lost_in_3'=>'1',
              'l_gem'=>'1',
              'l_set'=>'1',
              'point'=>'1',
              'v_gem'=>'1',
              'v_set'=>'1',
              'win'=>'1'
           ),
      array('%s','%s','%d','%d','%d','%d','%d','%d','%d','%d','%d')
            );

    I’m sure the function works.

    Yes, I’ll check out the link. Thank you.

    I think the problem is that button. When I call the function on page load without necessity of button click, it works great.

    Anything I try does not work. My custom button simply does not execute function. Even echo not work.
