RE: A little RULE help?

No. It's because your view's WHERE clause is being added to your INSERT
and of course nothing matches, so nothing gets inserted.

EXPLAIN

Thanks. You’re right - I should have thought to use EXPLAIN before posting here.

Don't use RULEs.

Repeating this, as if I should already know this, is less helpful though. It’s not as if the docs tells users to steer clear of RULEs.
If there is something I don’t understand, such as RULEs, I prefer to experiment with it and ask questions if there is something I still don’t follow. I thought this was the correct forum for those questions.
