Time for action – Creating the Posts table

We will now create a table named Posts which will hold all our blog posts.

This table will have the following five fields:

  1. id: The ID of the post
  2. title: The post's title
  3. body: The post's text
  4. fk_author: This will contain the ID of the author
  5. postedOn: The date when the post was published

The following is the SQL query that you can use to create this table:

CREATE TABLE 'Posts' (
  'id' int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  'title' text NOT NULL,
  'body' longtext NOT NULL,
  'fk_author' int(11) NOT NULL,
  'postedOn' datetime NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY ('id')
) ENGINE=MyISAM  DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Our table will be set correctly with this query.
