Below the simple Wiki Formatting Within Plugin is discussed as well as the standard/built-in templates, e.g., table, medialist and carousel. For user defined wiki or smarty templates see PluginList advanced output control block.

Basic Wiki Formatting Within Plugin

By placing Wiki syntax directly in the OUTPUT body content, along with the required objects to be displayed, the control block allows a template for each row of output to be constructed within the LIST plugin itself.

In the example below a table is constructed with the table 'header' row placed before the LIST and the table closing characters placed after the LIST. Each row of the table is then created by the LIST plugin with each table cell element generated by the display control block and separated by the usual table separator, i.e., a |

Table Formatting
A simple built-in templating method can be used by setting the OUTPUT template parameter to `table` and then using a column control block in the OUTPUT body content to define the individual columns of the table.

Table Column Control

Column Parameters

editable	inline	11.0
field	tracker field (permanent name) or FORMAT name reference
label	text
mode	raw
sort	tracker field (permanent name) or FORMAT name reference
translatelabel	y/n	18.0
class	text, use existing CSS class	21.0

Column Mode Parameter

When you use table output with a column generating HTML output (like objectlink and trackerrender formatted values), you should include the mode="raw" in the column specification. In the sample below, the column "title" mode is set to raw as in the format we want to display an objectlink. Other formats are available; see more about it here: PluginList display control block

Format parameters

Added in Tiki 11+ editable=inline will set the field to be editable inline.
Required: "Inline editing (found in trackers)", format="tracker render" and column should be set to mode=raw.

Sample using the default table formatting

Copy to clipboard

{LIST()}
{pagination max="12"}
{filter field="tracker_id" content="17"}
{filter type="trackeritem"}
{OUTPUT(template="table")}
  {column label="Title" field="title_link" sort="title" translatelabel="y" mode="raw" class="text-nowrap"}
  {column label="Started" field="started" mode="raw" class="text-info"}
  {column label="Completed" field="completed" sort="tracker_field_18"}
{OUTPUT}
  {FORMAT(name="title_link")}{display name="title" format="objectlink"}{FORMAT}
  {FORMAT(name="started")}{display name="tracker_field_started" format="trackerrender" editable=inline}{FORMAT}
  {FORMAT(name="tracker_field_completed")}{display name="tracker_field_completed"}{FORMAT}
{LIST}

Title	Started	Completed
November	900	800
December	799	276

Note that the column controls (within OUTPUT) are converted to a data array sent to the template. The table formatting uses Smarty formatting and provides the same capabilities.

(Tiki 18+) translatelabel="y" will translate the column label provided the translation is known to Tiki.

The use of the FORMAT control blocks allows individual objects to be 'formatted' and then referenced in the various OUTPUT methods - see PluginList format control block for more details.

Download CSV of Table Results

Since Tiki18 the downloadable=filename.csv parameter can be used to add a Download button which generates a CSV file with all data found in the table. Header row is based on the table headers formatted via column mode parameter. This option is available if you use the "table" output (see: Download CSV of Table Results . What is interesting in this option is that it will export ALL the results found for the search query and not only the list displayed (pagination may limit the visible list of results).

This option is also available when using the CustomSearch plugin and the List Execute plugin.

This option has been improved in Tiki25 offering an option to position the download button when using the table.tpl template.

Output formatting with download option

Copy to clipboard

{filter content="22" field="tracker_id"}
{OUTPUT(template="table" downloadable="Sample file.csv")}
  {column label="Firstname" field="firstname"}
  {column label="Lastname" field="lastname"}
{OUTPUT}
  {FORMAT(name="firstname")}{display name="tracker_field_contactsFirstName"}{FORMAT}
  {FORMAT(name="lastname")}{display name="tracker_field_contactsLastName" format="trackerrender"}{FORMAT}
{CUSTOMSEARCH}

Since Tiki25 the downloadable-position="top|bottom|both" parameter controls position of the Download button has been added. Values are top,-+bottom+- or both. Default is "bottom".

Output formatting with download option

Copy to clipboard

{OUTPUT(template="table" downloadable="Sample file.csv" downloadable-position="top")}
...column specification...
{OUTPUT}

Table formatting with TableSorter

Starting with Tiki15, PluginList can be used with tablesorter. Use a {tablesorter} tag to add the tablesorter parameters. See below, which uses the same syntax as above except for the addition of the tablesorter tag:

Sample with tracker list and calculation

Copy to clipboard

{LIST()}{pagination max="12"}
{filter field="tracker_id" content="17"}
{OUTPUT(template="table")}
{column label="Month" field="month" mode="raw"}
{column label="Started" field="started"}
{column label="Completed" field="completed"}
{column label="Status" field="status"}
{tablesorter server="n" sortable="type:reset" tsortcolumns="type:text|type:none|type:none|type:text" tsfilters="type:nofilter|type:nofilter|type:nofilter|type:dropdown;empty:empty" tstotals="| |type:col;label:Total hours|" tstotaloptions="ignore|ignore| |ignore" tstotalformat="#,###."}
{OUTPUT}
{FORMAT(name="month")}{display name="tracker_field_month" format="objectlink"}{FORMAT}
{FORMAT(name="started")}{display name="tracker_field_started"}{FORMAT}
{FORMAT(name="completed")}{DIV(type="span" class="float-right")}{display name="tracker_field_completed"}{DIV}{FORMAT}
{FORMAT(name="status")}{display name="tracker_field_status" default=""}{FORMAT}
{LIST}

Will produce the following (note that a span and bootstrap class are added to align the numbers as by default tablesorter calculation are numbers aligned right)

Month	Started	Completed

Sample adding tablesorter functionality

Copy to clipboard

{LIST()}
   {filter type="trackeritem"}
   {filter content="water"}
   {OUTPUT(template="table")}
       {column label="Title" field="title_link" sort="title" mode="raw"}
       {column label="Description" field="description"}
       {column label="Event Date" field="event_date" sort="tracker_field_18"}
       {tablesorter server="n" sortable="type:reset" tsortcolumns="type:text|type:text|type:digit" tsfilters="type:text|type:dropdown|type:digit" tspaginate="max:10" tscolselect="critical|5|6"}
   {OUTPUT}
   {FORMAT(name="title_link")}{display name="title" format="objectlink"}{FORMAT}
   {FORMAT(name="event_date")}{display name="tracker_field_18" format="date"}{FORMAT}
{LIST}

No results for query.

Please note that in some cases, if you want to use the tsfilters, you will need to take into account an extra column at the beginning for the:

status field
checkbox to perform actions on the listed items through the PluginListExecute
you can safely pre-pend, for instance, a "type:nofilter|" at the begining of the parameters of the tsfilter in such cases.

Table: expand table, number of items found, optional title

Starting with Tiki20, PluginList has a few optional parameters that work in conjunction with the table built-in template. Use a {tableparams} tag to add these parameters:

allowtableexpansion: for allowing table expansion (a toggle button to allow wide tables to overflow to the right of the content area rather than be scrollable in a limited-width area) (backported to 19.1 and 18.4)
shownbitems: to show the number of items found. (backported to 19.1 and 18.4)
title: whatever string you use here will be shown above the results table, with tiki syntax. The main purpose of this parameter is to allow for the title not to show when there are no results found. (backported to 19.2 and 18.4)

See usage example below:

Table showing items count and with an expand button

Copy to clipboard

{LIST()}
  {filter content="1" field="tracker_id"}
{OUTPUT(template="table")}
    {tableparams allowtableexpansion="y" shownbitems="y" title="!This is the title
And this is the subtitle"}
    {column label="Book Title" field="book_title"}
    {column label="Author" field="author"}
    {column label="Pages" field="pages"}
    {column label="Year" field="year"}
{OUTPUT}
  {FORMAT(name="book_title")}{display name="tracker_field_bookTitle"}{FORMAT}
  {FORMAT(name="author")}{display name="tracker_field_bookAuthor"}{FORMAT}
  {FORMAT(name="pages")}{display name="tracker_field_bookPages"}{FORMAT}
  {FORMAT(name="year")}{display name="tracker_field_bookYear"}{FORMAT}
{LIST}

Table: Facets

From 27.0 onwards adding {tableparams facets="y"} the table template will output facet results (with checkboxes when used in PluginCustomSearch to filter results)

The table output allow to display selected fields in a popover when hovering over the title of an item displayed through the plugin list.
First, from the tracker interface go to tracker properties, display and in the "List detail popup" multi-select field select the fields you want to be display in the popover. Check in the field list the field that is set for item title.

Create your plugin List with mode raw for the title field column (-+mode="raw"+-) and in the format parameter for the same field be sure the format is set to trackerrender (-+format="trackerrender"+-). When hovering over the title it should display the popover.

This code:

Table sample with popover

Copy to clipboard

{LIST()}
{pagination max="5"}
{filter field="tracker_id" content="20"}
{filter type="trackeritem"}
{sort mode="modification_date_ndesc"}
{OUTPUT(template="table")}
  {column label="Id" field="itemid" class="text-left" mode="raw"}
  {column label="Title" field="title" sort="title" class="text-nowrap"}
  {column label="Version" field="version"}
  {column label="User level" field="userLevel"}
{OUTPUT}
  {FORMAT(name="itemid")}{display name="tracker_field_videoresourceVideoId" format="trackerrender"}{FORMAT}
  {FORMAT(name="title")}{display name="tracker_field_videoresourceVideoName"}{FORMAT}
  {FORMAT(name="version")}{display name="tracker_field_videoresourceTikiVersion"}{FORMAT}
  {FORMAT(name="userLevel")}{display name="tracker_field_videoresourceTikiExperienceLevel"}{FORMAT}
{LIST}

Should produce (move your mouse over the id in the first column to see the popover) :

Count Formatting

Tiki15+
This sample shows how to return a simple count of the number of tracker items in tracker 7. For best performance, it is advised to set the max returned results to 1 to prevent having the index to send all the info for all the results (which will slow the request down unnecessarily).

Copy to clipboard

{LIST()}
  {pagination max=1}
  {filter type="trackeritem"}
  {filter field="tracker_id" content="7"}
  {OUTPUT(template="count")}
  {OUTPUT}
{LIST}

Report Formatting

Tiki20+
This allows you to have specific output format in a wiki page using the CALC extension (extend the wiki plugin List) to execute a formula on the whole result set returned by the list plugin, thus - do aggregations on the data. Useful for reports on more than one tracker item or the whole search result set.

(also see Calculations Syntax)

Example:

Copy to clipboard

{LIST()}
{filter field="tracker_id" content="45"}
{filter type="trackeritem"}
{OUTPUT(report="y")}
There are {CALC()}(count results){CALC} entries.
The total amounts are {CALC()}
(add (for-each (list results) (formula (if (equals tracker_field_trCurrency (str USD)) tracker_field_trAmount 0))))
{CALC} USD and {CALC()}
(add (for-each (list results) (formula (if (equals tracker_field_trCurrency (str MOP)) tracker_field_trAmount 0))))
{CALC} MOP.
{OUTPUT}
{LIST}

The new subtotal function aggregates data based on a single column (username in our case) and applies an aggregate function to the rest of the columns (you can choose which ones and what functions to apply). The example aggregates time sheet entries based on the username and applies the 'add' function to the time sheet minutes and 'count' function to the invoice number field. At the end, we have the data in this format:
user1|1250|3
user2|140|1
which is suitable for PluginFancyTable. As you can see in the example, we put the results in a fancytable, so a nice-looking report is done. You can add as many filters to the LIST plugin as you want, so time-constrained data is returned.

Copy to clipboard

{LIST()}
{filter field="tracker_id" content="22"}
{filter type="trackeritem"}
{OUTPUT(report="y")}
{FANCYTABLE()}
Username|Duration|Invoice
{CALC()}
(subtotal (list results) (group tracker_field_TimeSheetWorkerUsername) (aggregate tracker_field_TimeSheetMinutesWorked tracker_field_TimeSheetInvoiceFromFreelancer) (formula add count) (separators (str |) (str ~nl~)))
{CALC}
{FANCYTABLE}
{OUTPUT}
{LIST}

Tiki24+
Order and limit clauses now supported as well with format:
(order group-or-aggregated-position asc-or-desc)
(limit NUM group-or-formula-for-top-tier ignore-or-string-for-others)
Example:

Copy to clipboard

{filter field="tracker_id" content="22"}
{filter type="trackeritem"}
{OUTPUT(report="y")}
{FANCYTABLE()}

  (formula add count min min min max max max)
  (order (if (equals $4 (str February)) 2 (if (equals $4 (str August)) 8 0)) asc)
  (limit 1 (add $1 $2 $5) (str Others))

Wiki Formatting (Within Plugin)

For each result, the plugin allows to apply a template. See PluginList advanced output control block.
