Retrieve data from database to front-end

Question

I created a form using ConvertForm extension for guests to submit information (name, age, ...etc) into my Joomla database. Is there a way to display the information the guests submitted to another page on the website? (retrieving data from the database and putting it in an article or something on front-end) Can this be done through an extension or should I learn PHP to be able to do it?

Answer 1

Yes there is a way (or two):

• If you want to use an extensión, you can try with DB Embed Pro
  This allows you to insert data in your articles as you mention.
• You also can do this by Selecting data using JDatabase
  In this way, you can show you data in any part of your site, for example you can add the code in index.php file in your template, or in some override or in your custom module, etc.
