The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 18911 Logged by: M. BROUSSE Email address: bm16ch24f@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: 17.4 Operating system: Windows 10 professional. Description: Hello dev, sorry for my english i'm a french GIS user. I'm actually using PostgreSQL with Postgis in an intership and if I don't do mistake, I have discover the command INHERITS don't work as we would. I have done a test with the exemple in the documentation with my data base. The command gives all columns from the parent table (cities in the exemple) to the child table ; but attributs aren't given with tables to the child as we would. And more strange, if I create attributs by the child table, these attributs are given to the parent table... I have already used the Inheritance command before and it was normaly working. I don't know if someone have seen the same bug, and I hope I wasn't wrong and that was normal. Sorry for possible mistakes and I stay available if you need more details. Have a good day.

Yes, providing the code that demonstrates the bug you are reporting is basically a requirement for reporting bugs.
