WaffleDB is a no-code database management plugin for WordPress. You can define custom tables with any column structure directly from the admin dashboard, then create, read, update, and delete records through a built-in web interface or via REST API.
Features
- Create custom tables with a flexible column structure
- CRUD operations (create, read, update, delete) via web interface
- Role-based access control (read / write / update / delete per table)
- 26 column types: text, textarea, int, float, email, date, datetime, time, URL, image URL, image upload, file upload, YouTube, HTML text, Markdown, JSON, UUID, relation, radio, select (dropdown), checkbox, location, password, range slider, color, address (with Google Maps link)
- Form sets: bundle column definitions into a reusable template and apply them to a table in one click
- Table and row duplication

/wp-json/waffledb/v1/records/) with correct HTTP status codes, plus a legacy admin-ajax API — both support API token authentication - Block editor support: WaffleDB Table and WaffleDB Record blocks with a table picker

[waffledb table_id="X"]and[waffledb_item table_id="X" item_id="Y"] - DataTables integration for large datasets (switches to AJAX for 1,000+ records)
