sfxworks Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 So. Going to make my own forum from scratch. I mean...The way I see it...Each Schema is a board, each table is a topic, and each row is a new post? Or is that horribly, horribly wrong....

gizmola Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Yes that's wrong. There is no reason to have a different schema. One schema, multiple related tables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfxworks Posted July 3, 2011 Author Share Posted July 3, 2011 So just have a column that specifies its type in the table? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmola Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 If you abstract the entities: -Users -Boards -Topics -Posts Now you simply have to determine the attributes relevant to each entity and the relationships between them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
