I have the same question. I dont know how to insert new post with Corcel, I want to use posts table with other purpose. I think this is a new function in a future, I can not find this in code.

@mafiadek @namnguyen2091 thanks for sharing! actually, Corcel works on the top of Laravel's Eloquent ORM, so you can use all the relations the Post class has and insert what you want.

it should work fine when inserting, I cannot see any other restriction, but if so just let me know here and we try to fix that asap. basically you are going to use the $post->taxonomies() relation:

$post = Post::create([/* args */);
$post->taxonomies()->create(/* args */);

WP database uses 4 tables to do that, so you should touch all the necessary relations. you're going to use wp_posts, wp_term_relationships, wp_term_taxonomy and wp_terms.

it would be nice to have something like $post->addTerm($taxonomy, $term). you're also welcome to send a PR with this addition. a start point could be the $post->hasTerm($taxonomy, $term) method. take a look deeper how it works and it would be easier to do the opposite - inserting instead of querying.

let me know any other thoughts! you're welcome! 😎💪🎉

@mafiadek @namnguyen2091 just created a addTerm() method to the Post class. let me know your thoughts. Here is the PR #425. thanks! 🎉💪
