    Hi,
    I want to use word press for a website for a restaurant ... i have a database with the active menu items , their description and prices ..etc. I also have a management page for this database. Is it possible to integrate this content into a wordpress page or pages need to be static and I will have to create a plugin or something for this purpose. All I want to do is display a dynamic table based on an sql query.
    Thanks
    Cheers

    Look into add_menu_page - http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_menu_page

    You can either create the table display inside of functions.php or make a plugin and do it that way. Functions.php would be easier but you'll lose the page if you switch themes.
