Hi,

Can I upload data (straight) to an database with Couch? So I can read it out from the database with a php sql in my page.

So for example; add text in a few columns and a photo.

Looking forward to any replies!

Hello, @ludo - welcome to the Couch community!

When you talk about 'uploading data straight to a database', what do you mean exactly?

With Couch, all the information that your users enter in the admin section, once they login, is stored in a database (usually MySQL). You can also build forms for them in the frontend of your site, so they can enter information without having to login. That information can be stored directly in the database, and/or sent to you via email. Couch is really flexible.

The information you store is totally up to you. You can add fields for text, for photos, for all kinds of data. Is that what you mean?

I see a conflict here in the use of this.
e.g. you have a page you edit with couch cms. a soon as you delete this single page data gets deleted. the changes you made in mySQL are deleted as well.

You can use mySQL to get data from a page without using couch cms to show it in another application, app, ... whatever. Therefore just look your tables of MySQL and make a query with e.g. PHP.
