Add table to WordPress database
I want to add an extra table on my WordPress database and I intend to query it with a custom script that will be embedded to WordPress.
I'm worrying if this is a safe way to do it, or I should go with the option of adding an entirely new database, not a table on WordPress, as future updates of WordPress system might wipe my custom table? Any experience with such a scenario. Is this a valid risk/worry, or I should just create the table on the WordPress database, instead of creating another db, and connect to that new db in my custom script.
Thank you.
