Pretty Tracker HowTo

• One Tracker with at least one field
• One Wiki page with PluginTrackerlist (to list the data) or define a template directly in the Tracker (or a Wiki page with PluginTracker to input the data to a Tracker using a pretty formatted form)
• One template which tells how the data (or input fields) should be formatted (can be a Wiki page or *.tpl file)

1. Create a Tracker and note the Tracker ID and then create some field(s) for it and note the Field(s) ID(s) (name the Tracker for example "Fruit" and the created field(s) can be "Fruit Name" of type text input, etc.)
2. Insert some new Tracker Items? there after creating the Tracker, e.g. three items: Apple, Pear and Orange
3. Create a Wiki page named "fruit_template" with at least one {$f_X}, for example:
   

   __{$f_1}__ ---

   
   (Assuming the "Fruit Name" field has ID 1)
4. Set the permissions for that template page to tiki_p_use_as_template and remove tiki_p_edit and tiki_p_view for Anonymous so your visitors cannot edit and view the template page
5. Create another Wiki page "Fruit List" with
   

   List of my Fruit: {trackerlist trackerId=1 wiki=fruit_template}

   
   (Assuming the "Fruit" Tracker has ID 1)
