# Database wp_posts data question…

 * Products & orders data look like they are all stored in wp_posts table in the
   WordPress database. What is the reason this data is not stored in unique tables
   for the plugin? For example wp_asp or something like that? This way, if you allow
   the option in plugin settings to delete the plugin (and all related data) it 
   will be a clean and complete uninstall of all data related to the plugin from
   the database.
 * Thanks

 * We use custom post type for this plugin. Custom post type uses the standard wp_posts
   table. That offers a few advantages that allows us to offer features that we 
   want. It’s a decision that we made when we created the plugin.
 * You will need to use a different plugin that uses separate custom database table(
   we will not change this plugin, it will continue to work as it currently does).

 * Ok, thanks for the answer. Can you give an example of why using custom post type
   w/ wp_posts table for storing data is a good advantage?
 * Just curious…
