    How easy would it be to be build a WordPress homepage where part of the page has a search function which connects to an external PHP database e.g. searching a list of contacts? I would want part of the page to also list WordPress blog entries?

    Is it possible to combine my own PHP on a WordPress page like this?

    Many thanks,
    David

    Yes. Sure. You can connect to any database that you have credentials for, and that PHP can connect to of course, and I don’t really know what the complete list is.

    Hi apjdi,

    How can I create the connection to the external database?

    thank you.
