Creating a new record with php

    I run a php routine to get the users WordPress name.
    I then check to see if that user is on the PDB

    If the user is on the PDB I use
    do_shortcode(‘[pdb_record fields=”username,boat_name,boat_model,boat_owner” record_id=’.$user_id.’]’);
    which allows the user to amend his record

    If the user is not on PDB I use echo do_shortcode(‘[pdb_signup fields=”username”]’); to create a record with just the username. The shortcode requires the user to re-enter his username. The username is unique. To save this step, what code can I use for this routine to be carried out automatically and does not require the user to enter his username.

    Many Thanks

    Finally I’ve got it working. Initially the routine below was creating a new record but the username field was empty for some reason. I’m not sure if I had a typo, but it now works.

    $wp_username=’Enterprise’;
    $data=array(‘username’ => $wp_username);
    Participants_Db::write_participant($data);
