The database is a MySQL database  not a phpMyAdmin database  phpMyAdmin is only PHP code that connects to the DB   mysql connect  localhost    username    password   or die  mysql error     mysql select database  db name   or die  mysql error         now you are connected

Set up a user  a host the user is allowed to talk to MySQL by using  e g  localhost   grant that user adequate permissions to do what they need with the database    and presto   The user will need basic CRUD privileges to start  that s sufficient to store data received from a form  The rest of the permissions are self explanatory  i e  permission to alter tables  etc  Give the user no more  no less power than it needs to do its work
