WordPress Form Question

Is there a possibility to code your own form and then store submission in WP without purchasing Gravity forms. I figured that the WordPress Development track would reveal how to develop a contact page and not buy one.

Yes of course you can. What do you think Gravity forms does? :)

Free alternative is Contact Form 7 with the Contact Form 7 DB extension if you're not confident with WP, PHP & mySQL yet.

However, saving info to a table in your DB is dead simple.
