Building a Template


To display the pretty tracker, you can create a wiki page to serve as the template. You can include any wiki formatting, import graphics and icons, and even include other plugins and modules in this template.
TipTip:
Refer to the Tiki Documentation Tiki(external link) for complete information on using pretty trackers.


To include the data from a tracker field in the template, including the following code in the wiki page:
{$f_XX}

Where XX is the ID of the specific field.
Tracker fields
The ID for the Your Name field is 1.

For example, to display the user's name, you would use {$f_1}.

Create the Template

The "template" for the pretty tracker is simply a new wiki page.
  1. Create a new wiki page.
    Edit page
    Wiki page to serve as the template for the pretty tracker.
  2. Edit the page and include the following code:
    Pretty tracker template
    {DIV(float=left,width="75px")}{img src="pics/large/users48x48.png" alt="{$f_1}" desc="{$f_1}"}{DIV}
    __{$f_1}__ from {$f_6} uses {$f_12} {$f_13}.
    A little about {$f_1}... {$f_8}
    {DIV(class="clearfix") /}
    
    For more information, contact {$f_1}:
    *Email: [{$f_2}]
    *Postal:
    +{$f_3}
    +{$f_4}, {$f_5} {$f_6}

    NoteNote:
    This will create a template that will display each tracker item as:
    Pretty tracker
