    • Problem linking Tracker to Registration page

    Posted by Karen Stingel posts: 16

    The information on setting up a Tracker was slightly confusing, (I don't see a fieldtype of "user", the closest is "user selector")

    I'm using Tiki 7

    The (default) Registration page has the following fields:

    Copy to clipboard
    Username:*
Password:*
Repeat Password:*
Email:*
    I have setup my Tracker with the following fields:
    Copy to clipboard
    Field1:* type="user selector" option="1,1"
(this field is my Tracker key and should automatically copy the Username from the default form)
Field2:* type = "textfield"
Field3:* type = "textfield"
Field4:* type = "textfield"

    I have made all the respective connections through TikiAdmin, and my new form now looks like:

    Copy to clipboard
    Username:*
Password:*
Repeat Password:*
Email:*
Field2:*
Field3:*
Field4:*

    thinking everything was as it should be, I went ahead and registered a test user, upon checking my Tracker Items, I see

    Field1 Field2 Field3 Field4
    input2 input3 input4

    Can anyone assist with where I've gone wrong, and how do I make Tracker (#1) Field1 copy the "Username" Field?

    I worked it out ...
    Admin Groups > Edit Group "Registered"

    Copy to clipboard
    Users Information Tracker = "MyTracker"
    select field = 1-field1
Users Information Tracker Fields Asked at Registration Time = 1:2:3:4

    new form now looks like:

    Copy to clipboard
    Username:*
Password:*
Repeat Password:*
Email:*
Field1 (no input box)
Field2:*
Field3:*
Field4:*

    upon checking my Tracker, I now see:

    Field1 Field2 Field3 Field4
    autofilled input2 input3 input4

    New problem, along the same lines ....

    How do I make the Tracker Item editable?

    When I view the Tracker Item I don't see an option to edit the data,
    (Fields 2-4 should be editable).

    Since this Tracker contains (extra) contact information, I need the items to be able to be kept current.

    How do I make the Tracker Item editable?

    My Tiki > MY User Items (click it)

    takes me to
    Copy to clipboard
    tiki-view_tracker_item.php?trackerId=&itemId=
    ... I added dummy var references

    move to the "Edit/Delete" tab, and update the info as required

    When I view the Tracker Item I don't see an option to edit the data,
    (Fields 2-4 should be editable).

    Using the method above, all Fields are editable (I'm logged in as Admin)
    upon logging in as one of my testusers, I don't see the User Item created when I registered

    This is more than likely due to a permission conflict, I'll check into it.

    As expected, it was a permissions issue
    [Solution]
    Admin Groups (Registered)

    • Assign Global Permissions
    • expand the Trackers section
    • check:
      • Can view trackers (tiki_p_view_trackers)

    this will allow to view and edit their own item(s) but only view items created by others
