Create New Record from Form Submission using Add

Real life example of a function to create a Pods record from fields submitted on a form.

<?php 
function add_new_applicant () { 

    // Get field values from form submission 
    $first_name = $_POST['first_name']; 
    $last_name = $_POST['last_name']; 
    $telephone = $_POST['telephone']; 
    $email = $_POST['email']; 
     
    $fields = array( 
        'first_name'    => $first_name, 
        'last_name'        => $last_name, 
        'telephone'        => $telephone, 
        'email'            => $email 
    ); 
                     
    $new_id = pods( 'applicant' )->add( $fields ); 
     
    return $new_id; 
}

<?php

function add_new_applicant () {

// Get field values from form submission

$first_name = $_POST['first_name'];

$last_name = $_POST['last_name'];

$telephone = $_POST['telephone'];

$email = $_POST['email'];

$fields = array(

'first_name' => $first_name,

'last_name' => $last_name,

'telephone' => $telephone,

'email' => $email

);

$new_id = pods( 'applicant' )->add( $fields );

return $new_id;

}

Could also have a run through pods_sanitize to make sure the data is safe to be added.

pods('applicant')->add ( pods_sanitize ( $fields ) );

1	pods('applicant')->add ( pods_sanitize ( $fields ) );
