How can PHP be used to create a dynamic menu plan that can be updated weekly by a website owner?

To create a dynamic menu plan that can be updated weekly by a website owner using PHP, you can store the menu items and their corresponding days in a database. The website owner can then log in to an admin panel to update the menu plan for the upcoming week. The PHP code snippet below demonstrates how to retrieve and display the menu plan on the website. 

<?php
// Connect to database
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "menu_db";

$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);

// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
    die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}

// Query to retrieve menu plan for the current week
$sql = "SELECT day, menu_item FROM menu_plan WHERE week = 'current'";
$result = $conn->query($sql);

if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
    // Output data of each row
    while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
        echo "Day: " . $row["day"]. " - Menu Item: " . $row["menu_item"]. "<br>";
    }
} else {
    echo "0 results";
}

$conn->close();
?>
