Where is the data stored in phpMyAdmin. Custom fields, Taxonomies etc?

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

For custom fields and taxonomies, Toolset delegates to WordPress. They are stored in core WordPress tables. Please check this article for more details https://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description

Toolset, on the other hand, uses a prefix "wpcf-" to store custom fields on the database. A custom field with slug "school" will be saved with the meta key "wpcf-school".

Further more, Toolset uses some internal tables to store relationships. These tables are not related to custom fields and taxonomies.

I hope this answers your request. Let me know if you have any questions.
