Where Property Information Is Stored in the WordPress Database
WPResidence uses the default WordPress database structure. The theme does not create separate custom database tables for properties.
Property listings are saved as WordPress posts in the wp_posts table.
Additional property details are saved in the wp_postmeta table. This includes custom fields and property-specific information used by the theme.
Property taxonomies, such as category, action, city, area, and county/state, are stored using the default WordPress taxonomy tables.
The main WordPress tables used for property data are:
- wp_posts – stores the property listing as a WordPress post.
- wp_postmeta – stores additional property details and custom field values.
- wp_terms, wp_term_taxonomy, and wp_term_relationships – store and connect property taxonomies such as category, action, city, area, and county/state.

Important Note
We do not recommend editing the database manually unless you are an experienced developer and you have a full website backup.
Incorrect database changes can break property listings, search results, taxonomy connections, or other website functionality.
