Custom Table Create and Display in Kentico CMS 7.0
Kentico CMS 7.0 provides custom tables as a way to store and manage custom data. Technically, they are SQL tables and coupled stored procedures.
Once a custom table is created and contains data, the next step is to provide a display for site visitors.
