Database Structure

TUTORIAL #3: Here are descriptions of the database tables in PrestaShop v1.4.2. By default, each table has a prefix of ps_. When you install PrestaShop, you have the option of changing this prefix, which lets you install PrestaShop multiple times in the same database, and also helps to prevent table name conflicts with other shopping carts installed in the same database. The table names are all lowercase and use underscores between words, and include the types of objects in the table.
