History: Pretty Tracker HowTo

             # Pretty Tracker HowTo

A "((Pretty Tracker))" is a prettier way to list (or input) your ((Tracker)) data. 
To create a "((Pretty Tracker))" in Tiki you need:

- 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)


Here's step by step guide (using the TrackerList wikiplugin and a Wiki page as a template):

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 [Adding-items-to-a-tracker|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 {$f_X}, for example: 
     {CODE()}__{$f_1}__ ---{CODE} 
     (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<br />{CODE()}List of my Fruit: {trackerlist trackerId=1 wiki=fruit_template}{CODE} 
     (Assuming the "Fruit" Tracker has ID 1)

As a result you should now see the three fruits listed in bold on the page "Fruit List" one under each other and divided by horizontal line according to the template:

List of my Fruit: 
**Apple**

---

**Pear**

---

**Orange**

---


That's it ! 😊
