How Do I Create a Database in WordPress?
Creating a database in WordPress is a simple process that can be done by following these steps:
First, open your WordPress admin panel and click on the “WordPress Database” icon on the left-hand side. This will open the WordPress database editor.

Now, in the “Databases” section of the WordPress database editor, click on the “Activate” button next to the “blog” database. This will activate the database and allow you to start adding tables and columns to it.
To add a table to your database, first click on the “Add Table” button and then enter the table name (for example, “posts”) into the “Table Name” field. Next, click on the “Select Table” button and select the table from the WordPress database that you want to add the table to.
Finally, enter the table data into the fields that appear, and then click on the “Add” button.
To add a column to your database, first click on the “Add Column” button and then enter the column name (for example, “post_date”) into the “Column Name” field. Next, click on the “Select Column” button and select the column from the WordPress database that you want to add the column to.
Finally, enter the column data into the fields that appear, and then click on the “Add” button.
To add a row to your database, first click on the “Add Row” button and then enter the row name (for example, “1”) into the “Row Name” field. Next, click on the “Select Table” button and select the table from the WordPress database that you want to add the row to.
Finally, enter the row data into the fields that appear, and then click on the “Add” button.
Now, in the “Functions” section of the WordPress database editor, click on the “Add Function” button and then enter the function name (for example, “get_post_by_date”) into the “Function Name” field. Next, click on the “Select Function” button and select the function from the WordPress database that you want to add the function to.
Finally, enter the function code into the field that appears, and then click on the “Add” button.
To add a global variable to your database, first click on the “Add Global Variable” button and then enter the global variable name (for example, “current_time”) into the “Global Variable Name” field. Next, click on the “Select Global Variable” button and select the global variable from the WordPress database that you want to add the global variable to.
Finally, enter the global variable data into the field that appears, and then click on the “Add” button.
Now, in the “Connections” section of the WordPress database editor, click on the “Add Connection” button and then enter the database connection details into the “Database” field. Next, click on the “Select Connection” button and select the database connection from the WordPress database that you want to add the connection to.
