I have an website with huge data in its database now I want to rebuild it in wordpress. So in this order I have to create custom post type and custom data fields in wordpress. Since wordpress saves all data in ‘wp_post’ and ‘wp_postmeta’ tables then how can I import my all data from existing database into wordpress database.
Should I use custom table in wordpress, if yes then how can I do that.?
please suggest me a better way.
You can develop a plugin for WordPress to handle your specific data type. WordPress supports custom post types. According to the linked WordPress page, it does not seem to mention additional tables. There is a plugin that supposedly offer the same functionality (did not test it).
