some questions

hey all, im new to concrete5 and for now i would recommend it for every users that use CMS ...but i have one little question...
i need to do a form that pulls info from an extra database that i have in phpmyadmin. i have all the code working in php/html and some scripts. question:
How do i put this form that i created in my site in concrete?
should i make a block for that? and so where do i put the code?
i tried the addon "Simple PHP" but it doens´t do the trick... and if we could solve this without paying for any extra addon with would be great!
thx for any reply ;)

ok so this form will be unique no other page will use it... i should make a single page then?
You can either use the "External Form" block (insertable via the front-end administration) or create a single page. Both would work for you, probably.
yea but i can put the code anywhere???
If you have the form working elsewhere successfully, then you can use dynamic iframe add-on from marketplace to embed it.
iframe ig a good idea .... but in the url what do i put? do i have to upload the file to the net?
and btw how do i put the login page first of everything? i mean no one can see even the home page if they arent logged in.

Single Pages:

External Form Block:

Between the two, I would suggest using the external form block if you needed to place the form on multiple pages within your site.
