Title: Where does WP Post? Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Where does WP Post? * Resolved [influece](https://wordpress.org/support/users/influece/) * (@influece) * [19 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-does-wp-post/) * I am trying to combine WordPress with the Vanilla forums. What I want is that every post I make with wordpress, should be a new thread on vanilla. So basicly after WordPress inserts the data in the WP tables, I want it to insert the same data in the Vanilla tables. Now my question is where do I put the code to enter it in the Vanilla tables?

Its like the script doesn’t even get executed. * [DianeV](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dianev/) * (@dianev) * [19 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-does-wp-post/#post-572043) * Sounds like you’re going to have to tie the databases together. * Thread Starter [influece](https://wordpress.org/support/users/influece/) * (@influece) * [19 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-does-wp-post/#post-572045) * Everything is set up correctly, I already got the authentication system working. * Thread Starter [influece](https://wordpress.org/support/users/influece/) * (@influece) * [18 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-does-wp-post/#post-572298) * I still haven’t found it yet, any help is welcome and greatly appreciated. * [jamespoling](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamespoling/) * (@jamespoling) * [18 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-does-wp-post/#post-572313) * if you’re asking what DB table the posts go into all you have to do is look at your WP DB. The table is called wp_posts or something like that. * Thread Starter [influece](https://wordpress.org/support/users/influece/) * (@influece) * [18 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-does-wp-post/#post-572314) * No, I knew that, thanks anyway. What I mean is, which file contains the query that sends it all to the DB, when I submit a new post. That way I can make my own query, and make WP execute them both. * [ceejayoz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ceejayoz/) * (@ceejayoz) * [18 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-does-wp-post/#post-572315) * You can make a plugin to attach to the publish_post action. * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference](http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference) * Thread Starter [influece](https://wordpress.org/support/users/influece/) * (@influece) * [18 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-does-wp-post/#post-572321) * Woah didn’t even know that existed.
