• Hi,

    I would like to manage a new table created in phpmyadmin through the dashboard of WordPress.

    Indeed, I want to create a new table called customer_review, with a little comment and a mark (1 to 5). In some post I want to show customer_review about a product.

    Do you know if I can do this with a plugin ? Which one ? Or an other way ?

    Thank you very much for your answer.

    Adminer: http://wordpress.org/plugins/adminer/ may enable you to do what you want as it provides a MySQL Management console in WordPress similar to PhpMyAdmin

    I’m not really sure what you are asking for, but if you are looking to manage a new content type, rather than interacting directly in the database, you need to learn about custom post types

    Thank you, it’s exactly what’s I needed !!

    I hope it’s the last question : Is it possible to create a Custom Post Type (called Product) with a name (with Title), a little description (with Excerpt), a mark for value for money (1 to 5), a mark for quality and a general mark ?
    Do I have to use taxonomy ?

    Idealy, I want to people change automatically the mark after the vote.

    I’m not totally sure what your aim is, but it sounds like you should be able do all of that. You could use custom fields for the marks if you feel it is not necessary to add a taxonomy.

    Thank you. Actually my aim is very simple.

    I want to list a lot of book.
    Every book must have a title, a description, a category (tragedy, comedy,…). And I want that people can mark a book with several mark.
    In a page of my website I will show a ranking for the best book.

    To do this, I have created a custom post type called BOOK, with a TITLE and an EXCERPT. With a plugin, I have added some custom fields, category, average mark, and several marks.

    Now, can I change the value of this mark directly with the answers of internet users ?

    It’s my first site with wordpress and I think my problem is that I reflect with database because with a table in PHPMyAdmin it’s simple but I want to do this with wordpress.

    Creating a custom post type is definitely the best way for this. If the intention is for visitors to your site to rate the books, you will either need to create some custom code or use a ratings plugin. I think GD Star Rating might help. http://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-star-rating/ but there are a few others that you may prefer if you search the plugins directory for the term ‘ratings’ http://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=ratings
