Exploring the role of existing tables

Assuming that most of you are existing WordPress developers, you will have a solid understanding of an existing database table structure. However, I suggest that you continue with this section, as web applications can present a different perspective on using these tables.

• User-related tables
• Post-related tables
• Term-related tables
• Other tables

Let's look at how each table fits into these categories, and look at their roles in web applications.
