Re: [Tiki-users] Automatically Generate Wiki Pages

Hi,

Thank you for answering.

The objective is the following:

I have a set of trackers resembling a database where I have (let's 
simplify) a Customers Tracker (Field: CustomerName), a MachinesType 
Tracker (Field: MachineType) and a Orders Tracker (Fields: OrderNumber, 
MachineType, Customer).

As I create a new item of the Orders table I'd like an associated wiki 
page to be created. As you mentioned, there is a Wiki Page field that 
can provide this functionality. However I have my Tiki website strongly 
structured with namespaces, so I need the new page to have as namespace 
Customers:_:<CustomerName>:_: and as page title <OrderNumber>. Thus, the 
complete page title would result in 
Customers:_:<CustomerName>:_:OrderNumber.

This would be a first result.

I didn't know of the possibility you mentioned about templates, I'll 
take a look, thank you.

Of course the more convenient way would be for the page to be 
automatically created and named correctly, so that the updating process 
is not too heavy for the user (I'd like even a not skilled user to be 
able to do that).

As a second request, I'd like, as soon as the page is create, for a 
second page to be created, aliasing the first (I'd like the page to 
appear under the section "Customers" and under the section "Machines" too).


I know this is probably a lot to ask but... I tried :). Until now I was 
able to do with tiki more or less everything I planned to do.

Thank you in advance,

Alessandro
