EffectIO MB Custom Table 2.3.0

Description:

MB Custom Table is an extension for the Meta Box plugin that saves custom field data in custom database tables instead of the default post, user and term meta tables. Meta values are stored in a single row, with each column acting as a meta key. This reduces the number of database rows, which grow quickly and can cause performance issues as data increases.

The extension provides a simple API to define table structure and works with existing meta boxes without changes to their definitions. It supports all Meta Box field types and post, user, term and comment meta. Tables are created with the method WordPress recommends, so the structure can be upgraded anytime. Since version 2, custom models combine the post and post meta tables into one custom table for listing, editing and deleting items. It also works with MB Admin Columns, which lets you define custom columns for the table list, and with most Meta Box plugins.

It suits developers working on sites with a lot of custom field data, such as WooCommerce shops with more than 40 custom fields per order. With a custom table, queries become faster and simpler, database size is reduced, all data for one post can be viewed at once in any database management tool, and exports take only one table.

The vendor’s own page for MB Custom Table has the full details.
