Using Editor on a WordPress table in admin

socialink

Hi folks

Looking for a way to have a client directly edit a particular table in the WP admin section, and thinking of licensing Editor for this purpose.

Doing our discovery and following this example I see you recommend a whole other database, but our use case here is to have a user edit a custom table directly (eg wp_custom_table) in the main WP install.

Is that a bad idea for an authenticated backend user? Do you have any tips or updated (that blog post is from 2019) recommendations around this kind of integration? Thank you.
