   The table wp_postmeta typically holds data related to posts. Some of the uses are:
   1. Custom Fields created for posts.
   2. The value of a Page Template if a Page is assigned a template.
   3. WordPress uses some values like _edit_lock to lock a post if someone is editing it.
   4. Other - plugins and themes might store data here.
