grahamgr3 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I want to integrate the forum example in the book into my website, except I would modify it so that I could have multiple forums with different topics on my site. What I want to know is what columns and tables do you think I should add to my forum database. To add to the example in the book, I thought of creating a new forums table, and in it having the forum_id column, as well as the thread_id foreign key column. I am new at this so if you have any suggestions at populating my forums table that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Give you provide a bit more context? Maybe examples of what you mean by forums and topics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamgr3 Posted November 1, 2014 Author Share Posted November 1, 2014 I want to have a forum that has several topics, I want each forum topic to have a forum id. So they are like separate forums. Here are the columns I though up for my new forums table which will manage each individual forum topic. forum_id, thread_id, user_id, lang_id, title, description, Are those columns sufficient, I want to build this table correctly from the start.
