I am trying to create a site with a tiny CMS, the problem is that there is only php installed on the server.
The site will mainly consit of two pages the user page and admin page. On the user page there is to be a bunch of checkboxes which when checked will do some math(not the problem I need solved). On the admin page you need to be able to add the checkboxes and assing them their values.
My approach was to read and write to a XML file that contains the data instead of a database. I have run into a lot of problems trying to accomplish this, and I am looking for some good ideas for how it can be done, or alternatives.
Thanks in advance.
You can use sqlite as database engine. This way you also create a portable version of your application and by using PDO you could always switch to another database engine later on.

I am exporting my system into a desktop app using PHP Desktop and MySQL. But in order to access it, I still have to start XAMPP.
So I am thinking of converting the database to SQLite.
My question is... Do I need to change my whole code like starting from the scratch or I just need to change the database connection?
Because I already build a GUI. And the only changes I want to make is the database.. I have seen some questions but it's not what I'm looking for.
Please guide me. I am new to this so Im sorry as I don't have enough knowledge in programming..
I haven't tried anything yet.
I am expecting to convert my database without changing the codes of my GUI and function buttons...

Can someone give me ideas of how the admin managing the school announcements and events of a web portal? Like how they put it in there? is it manually coding? I just started programming php.
If you use pure HTML manually write the code inside the portal .
If instead use PHP is normally integrated with a database in such a way that once created the basic structure ( PHP that reads from Database ) the whole system is dynamic.
Normally if it comes to dynamic sites are used in the CMS that are web applications that interact with the database to enter data (a real data entry)
List of some free CMS:
WordPress
Joomla
concrete5
Drupal
If you are learning you should look at the official documentation for PHP Manual link
And look MySQL which is a great open source database MySQL link

I am trying to have users upload on imagine on the app I am developing for a class with Swift and posting it to my MySQL database with PHP but have no idea how to do this. I cannot find any sort of source code online for this and am at a loss for trying this myself.
Does anybody know how to do this?
Though you can technically store images in a MySQL database, it's really bad practice.
Instead, you'll want to store the file in a disk directory. Since this is a broad question with an almost limitless amount of ways you could achieve your goal, here's one suggestion:
Send the file as POST data to your server.
Store the file using PHP.

I want my client to be able to log into their website, fill out a form and then have that webpage permanently have whatever they put into that form. Is there a way to use php to take whatever is submitted in that form and replace the html content with it? Im new to php, which functions could I use? And is it possible for php to permanently change anything on a site? Im not terribly concerned with security
Start with wordpress and if you don't like it, then there are other content management systems out there. Google can help you find one too.

I just want anyone to correct me if I'm wrong. Can I create a CMS by making a file where you log in as an admin and then you can write an article and send it to a database table. In another file display all articles from the table with ORDER BY id. To delete you simply make a delete script. Do I have to use any other languages like xml or something? Thanks!
The question: Can I make a simple cms by just using PHP and HTML?
No, you don't need other languages.
PHP and MySQL should be sufficient.
Well, the way the articles are displayed depends of HTML, CSS or JS codes you use.
I'm not quite sure what you're asking exactly. But you could easily write something like that in just PHP and HTML, and use a database to store the information.
