Daniel0 Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Have a topics table and a posts table. Use a has-many relationship to link the posts to a topic by having a column called topic_id in posts. Then you could do this to get all the posts in topic id 5: SELECT * FROM posts WHERE topic_id = 5; I'd also put the first post in the posts table as well instead of a column called body in topics or something like that.
