WPPG

Description

WPPG is a special plugin enabling WordPress to be used with a PostgreSQL database. Redevelop from PG4WP plugin.

Github: https://github.com/qodrorid/wppg

WPPG gives you the possibility to install and use WordPress with a PostgreSQL database as a backend.
It works by replacing calls to MySQL specific functions with generic calls that maps them to another database functions and rewriting SQL queries on the fly when needed.

If you want to use this plugin, you should be aware of the following :
– WordPress with WPPG is expected to be slower than the original WordPress with MySQL because WPPG does much SQL rewriting for any page view
– Some WordPress plugins should work ‘out of the box’ but many plugins won’t because they would need specific code in WPPG

You shouldn’t expect any plugin specific code to be integrated into WPPG except for plugins shipped with WordPress itself (such as Akismet).
