To save the `$hppJson` data into a new WordPress database table named `track_user_orders`, follow these steps:
—
### ✅ **Step 1: Create the Table**
Use a plugin like **WP phpMyAdmin**, or run the following SQL in your DB admin panel:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `track_user_orders` (
`id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`order_id` VARCHAR(255),
`site_name` VARCHAR(100),
`billing_email` VARCHAR(255),
`hpp_json` TEXT,
`created_at` DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);
—
### ✅ **Step 2: Insert `$hppJson` into the Table**
Add the following block **after** the `echo $hppJson;` line in your code:
global $wpdb;
$table_name = $wpdb->prefix . 'track_user_orders';
$wpdb->insert(
$table_name,
[
'order_id' => $ord,
'site_name' => $siteN,
'billing_email'=> $billingemail,
'hpp_json' => maybe_serialize($hppJson),
],
[ '%s', '%s', '%s', '%s' ]
);
—
### ✅ **Explanation**
– `maybe_serialize()` ensures the JSON is stored properly.
– `$wpdb->prefix` adds your site's actual DB prefix (like `wp_`).
– The data is saved with columns: `order_id`, `site_name`, `billing_email`, and the actual HPP JSON payload.

### ✅ **Optional Debugging**
To check if it's inserting correctly, add:
if (false === $wpdb->last_error) {
error_log("✅ Order $ord successfully tracked.");
} else {
error_log("❌ DB Error: " . $wpdb->last_error);
}

Let me know if you want to auto-create the table during plugin/theme activation or add more columns like `product_id`, `total_price`, etc.
