How to create multiple wpdb tables during plugin installation
-
I’ve read the codex on creating a table in the database when installing a plugin and seen the example there as well as on other sites with tutorials. My question is how to create multiple tables. The example function creates one table:
function create_plugin_database_table() { global $wpdb; $table_name = $wpdb->prefix . 'sandbox'; $sql = "CREATE TABLE $table_name ( id mediumint(9) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, title varchar(50) NOT NULL, structure longtext NOT NULL, author longtext NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id) );"; require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php' ); dbDelta( $sql ); } register_activation_hook( __FILE__, 'create_plugin_database_table' );
I need to create several tables. Do I create 10 functions for each CREATE TABLE statement or is there some way to loop through an SQL file and create the tables?
Thanks.
