I am new to umbraco and i am curious to know if there's a way to create custom content page which stores data in custom tables. If it's possible please tell me the way to achieve it.
Another thing is that is there a way to bind custom data from database in dropdown in content page.
If you want to build something custom, then these two projects are open source, and so will at least contain good examples for how to achieve this kind of extension of Umbraco.

Hello All,
I am new to umbraco and i am curious to know if there's a way to create custom content page which stores data in custom tables. If it's possible please tell me the way to achieve it.
Another thing is that is there a way to bind custom data from database in dropdown in content page.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Jitender
There are a couple of packages that will be worth you taking a look at.
The first 'Contentment' - https://our.umbraco.com/packages/backoffice-extensions/contentment/ allows you to setup custom data sources, eg a database table to custom data lists, eg a dropdown.
Secondly, UI-O-Matic - https://our.umbraco.com/packages/developer-tools/ui-o-matic/ will create a custom section in Umbraco that will automatically generate editors to create and update data that will get stored in a Custom Database table.
If you want to build something custom, then these two projects are open source, and so will at least contain good examples for how to achieve this kind of extension of Umbraco.
