I am studying Wordpress, and to exercise I am developing a theme and a plugin. The goal is to use a contact form in the theme, that instead of sending the data by email, as usually done, make the persistence of this data in the database for later view / manipulation by the site administrator.
My question is how to use my plugin’s input method on submit of the HTML Form. I saw in the wordpress API a file called admin-post.php, but apparently, it has nothing to do with what I need to do. Someone has an idea of how I could do this?
There is already a plugin that does something similar: Contact Form Database Extension. Maybe it can be guided by what is the proposal of this.

Study about Wordpress’s Hooks (actions and Filters). With this concept in your head it will be easier to develop in Wordpress.
