wordpress as HTML interface for database

I have several embedded hardware system in the field that update to a server with a central database. My next step is to manage the database through a web interface so records can be viewed and displayed as required.

My plan thus far has been to install AMPPS and wordpress. However I am not sure where to begin when writing custom pages on a wordpress install. I have created the four pages I require but i am now at a loss on how to edit these pages so I can do PHP queries on the database and had users modify some of the records.

If anyone could point me to some wordpress (and PHP) resources that focus on working with wordpress at a deeper level as opposed to customising themes and installing plugins I would be very grateful.

WordPress isn't really a DBMS, so you'd have to code all of the functionality yourself.

It sounds like you'd be better off with phpMyAdmin.
