Create, update, delete, and query Wordpress Posts.

Table Specific Information

SELECT

The component uses the WordPress API to process some of the filters. The component processes other filters client-side within the component. You can turn off the client-side execution of the query by setting SupportEnhancedSQL to false in which case any search criteria that refers to other columns will cause inconsistent data. For example, the following queries are processed server side.

SELECT * FROM Posts WHERE Id = 1
SELECT * FROM Posts WHERE Status = 'publish' AND Sticky = 'true'
SELECT * FROM Posts WHERE Id IN (1, 21)
SELECT * FROM Posts WHERE Author IN (1, 2)
SELECT * FROM Posts WHERE Date < '2018-02-02T02:02:23'
SELECT * FROM Posts WHERE Date > '2018-02-02T02:02:23'
SELECT * FROM Posts ORDER BY Title

Also, ordering by Id, Author, Date, Modified, is handled by the WordPress API.
