 * I’m having trouble figuring out a way to insert data into my own mysql database
   setup within wordpress. What am I doing wrong?

       <?php
   
       global $wpdb;
       $name = $_POST['name'];
       $email = $_POST['email'];
       $phone = $_POST['phone'];
       $address = $_POST['address'];
   
       $table_name = $wpdb->prefix . 'customers';
       $wpdb->insert( $table_name,
       array( 'name' => $name,
       'email' => $email,
       'phone' => $phone,
       'address' => $address),
       array('%s','%s','%s','%d',));
       ?>
   
       <form type="post" action="cars-3/" >
   
       <label for="name">Name:</label>
       <input name="name" type="text" />
       <br/>
       <label for="email">Email:</label>
       <input name="email" type="text" />
       <br/>
       <label for="phone">Phone:</label>
       <input name="phone" type="text" />
       <br/>
       <label for="address">Address:</label>
       <input name="address" type="text" />
       <br/>
       <input type="submit">
       </form>
       <br/><br/>
       <div id="feedback"></div>
       <br/><br/>
       ```

 * Hard to tell without more informations. Is $address really a decimal number? 
   Do you get any error (hint: set WP_DEBUG to true)? Do you get an id via $wpdb-
   >insert_id? Have you tried $wpdb->print_error()? …
