    Is it possible to make one column in the database table for all posts?
    Currently there are infinite columns in the tables because each post has a new column.
    I have not seen a plugin that does this yet.
    It would really help if it was possible to make just one column.
    I have thousands of posts on the site and I edit the posts through tables and this plugin causes infinite scrolling of thousands of pages because it creates a separate column for each new post on the site.

    It may also be making the site heavier or slower when it has to load thousands of columns for each post.
    Besides, the content cannot be migrated to another code or plugin due to the large number of columns.
    Thank you.
    It would be really appreciated if you could resolve this.

    Hi @moshe1111,
    thank you for your message!

    To better understand the issue, could you please share a few screenshots of what you’re seeing — especially the part where you’re noticing the “infinite columns” for posts?

    This will help us pinpoint what’s happening and see how our plugin might be interacting with your setup. If you’re using any custom table editors or plugins to manage posts in bulk, feel free to mention that as well. I am sure that we will be able to help resolve this issue. Thank you very much in advance.

    Looking forward to your update so we can assist further!

    Best regards,

    WP Sheet Editor – Post Types

    Each post creates a new key with its post ID, just like there is a title key, a content key, an image field key.
    In your plugin, each post creates a custom key based on the post ID where it prepares the description for search engine promotion.

    Hi @moshe1111,
    Thanks for the clarification — that helps a lot!

    Just to make sure we’re on the same page: Are you referring to the postmeta rows with meta keys like _ai4seo_123-meta-title and _ai4seo_123-meta-description (where 123 is the post ID)? If so, we completely understand the issue — especially when using WP Sheet Editor, where each of those unique keys would appear as a new column.

    We agree that this could be improved. We’re currently reviewing how to better structure and streamline the data in the database to avoid this kind of clutter and make the plugin more efficient — especially for large sites like yours.

    Thanks again for the feedback — it’s very helpful. We’ll follow up here once we’ve made progress on this optimization!

    Best regards,
