 * Hi,
    I’ve created a mysql database with 10 tables. At the moment, my local installation
   of wordpress is accessing this database with no problems.
 * My question is, is it best to keep my wordpress database separate from my other
   database, or is it better to import my other database tables into my wordpress
   database.
    I’d like to merge both databases but I’m not sure if it is a good 
   idea or not. Any thoughts or recommendations? Thanks 🙂
