Insert tab with database informations

  • Hello,
    I want to insert a tab with informations from a database.
    I have only find plugins where I can create a tab with a CSV information but I want to add rows and columns with the information conainted in my database.

    Do you know if a plugin can do that?

    Thanks for your help

  • Yes, a plugin can do that.
    Your plugin will register shortcodes, possibly with arguments. In a suitable page or post you invoke a shortcode.
    In your plugin the shortcode function queries your database table, and renders the results into an HTML table, which it returns.
    An alternate way is to create a custom page template in your child theme, query the database and render the table there.

    Thanks RossMitchell
    Which plugin name do you council me ? I’m looking for a free one if possible.
    I tried TablePress but I can’t query my database.

    For the alternate way, do you have any tutorial link to do that? Something I can learn from.
