Page with a TRACKER for a specific item

Help! I've found the following information on creating a page that displays a single tracker item. I've followed the instructions and created an "UpdateItem" page. How do I "just use a regular tracker plugin" on this page?

How to go from a TRACKERLIST page to a page with a TRACKER for a specific item

You want to be able from a TRACKERLIST page to select an item and to go on another page where you can modify your item. We will call this page UpdateItem. We will suppose that the field 1 is a main field (it display a link to the item.
To do so use the parameter url in TRACKERLIST


The page UpdateItem needs just to use a regular TRACKER plugin. If itemId is present in the URL, it will be automatically prefilled with the value of the item.

Hi Kim,

what do you actually want to achieve?

Do you want exactly what is described in the docpage, or do you just think, that this might guide you somehow into the direction you need for your usecase.

Maybe you could describe your personal usecase a bit mor detailed, pls?

Cheers,
Torsten


I'm sorry, I really wasn't very clear.

I am trying to set up an online dictionary, and am leaning more towards using the tracker feature for entries instead of individual pages. The tracker setup is going well — I like the fact that I can format/search/sort dictionary entries as data tables, and I managed to batch upload a number of entries.

Now what I would like to do is customize how each of these entries is displayed. It appears I can have a tracker entry displayed as an individual wiki page, but I haven't quite figured out how to do it yet.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Now I think I've really messed up.

I managed to figure out how to customize how tracker items are displayed.

Then, this morning, I tried adding a search module TO my site header, in the same box as my logo.

My site is broken. None of the pages wants to load. I tried removing the offending module as per these Questioninstructions — I removed ALL the modules, in fact — but nothing works and I can't go back to tiki-admin.php?page=look to remove the search module!

I'm trying not to panic...
