X3 Database

23 Nov 2014, 21:36

Is it fair to assume that the X3 database would replace the yml files?

If so is there a table column for each field in the yml file?

No, the database does not replace the YML files, and the database "option" basically has nothing to do with the X3 frontend. X3 is a non-DB application, and moving it to DB would in fact create several disadvantages (content relationship, portability, simplicity, file storage, speed and cache).

As emphasized in the panel docs, the DB is only an option to compliment the control panel itself:
