How Do I Create a Custom SQL Query in WordPress?

Creating a custom SQL query in WordPress is a fairly straightforward process. To begin, open up your WordPress admin panel and navigate to the “SQL” tab.

Here, you’ll be able to enter in your desired SQL query and hit “Run.” WordPress will then execute the query and return the results to you.

Once your query has completed, you can visualize the results by clicking on the “View Results” link in the sidebar. This will open up a table of all of the data that was returned, as well as a few other useful tools.

For example, you can use the “Pagination” button to limit the number of results displayed at a time, or the “Sort” button to sort the results by a certain column.

Finally, you can click on the “Download” button to save the results of your query into a comma-separated value (CSV) file. You can then use this file to analyze the data in more detail or to create a custom WordPress plugin or theme using the data.
