wpdb::tables( string $scope = 'all', bool $prefix = true, int $blog_id )

Returns an array of WordPress tables.


Description Description

Also allows for the CUSTOM_USER_TABLE and CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE to override the WordPress users and usermeta tables that would otherwise be determined by the prefix.

The scope argument can take one of the following:

‘all’ – returns ‘all’ and ‘global’ tables. No old tables are returned. ‘blog’ – returns the blog-level tables for the queried blog. ‘global’ – returns the global tables for the installation, returning multisite tables only if running multisite. ‘ms_global’ – returns the multisite global tables, regardless if current installation is multisite. ‘old’ – returns tables which are deprecated.


Parameters Parameters

$scope

(string) (Optional) Can be all, global, ms_global, blog, or old tables. Defaults to all.

Default value: 'all'

$prefix

(bool) (Optional) Whether to include table prefixes. If blog prefix is requested, then the custom users and usermeta tables will be mapped.

Default value: true

$blog_id

(int) (Optional) The blog_id to prefix. Defaults to wpdb::$blogid. Used only when prefix is requested.
