New to PP and loving it.
However, one key thing we need is a very simple database. Doesn't need to be as complex as Zoho Creator - just a simple create record, update record, delete record, etc. We'd rather not keep it all in a spreadsheet because we have other automated things that want to query it.
PP Forms are not the answer...is there a plugin or extension for PP that would allow us to add a simple DB to it? I really hate to spin up something completely separate for this need.
Thanks!
You want to be able to query tables from your PP database? Correct?
If so, I think you need something like a datagrid which is basically a tabular display of database table(s) or a data file (json, xml or txt files). Some will allow you to manage; add, edit and delete records and filter records along with other features.
I don't think there's anything like this in PP, but you can install and use one of the many open source datagrid applications out there.
