Sometimes SQL knowledge is critical for WordPress developers to run mass updates on your posts. In this post, we are sharing an example SQL query to get posts using a category name. This requires database access and some basic SQL knowledge.

To get all posts using a category name, run the following query on your WordPress database using phpMyAdmin or a similar tool.

Please note, that some WordPress installations may use a custom database table prefix other than just “wp_” for security or multi-site reasons. In that case, you need to replace all wp_ prefixes with the correct prefix on your database.
