How do I change pdb_list view from horizontal to vertical for each record.

The plugin uses templates to produce all it’s output. You can create a custom template to lay out the data any way you want…you just need a little knowledge of PHP and HTML.

Thanks for the very quick answer.

I am able to understand by looking at the code in pdb-list-detailed.php that the code continually loops and and creates a new single row of each field of data in each record. I am strong in html and css, but I don’t know php well enough to know how to change it to loop through and create a new row for each field as it comes to it. I really like the positive reviews of this plugin so I really hope I can figure the php part out without taking too much time.

Thanks for the earlier feedback. For anyone else that might have this problem in the future, my solution was as follows…

I changed the following code:

<tbody>
      <?php while ( $this->have_records() ) : $this->the_record(); // each record is one row ?>
        <tr>
          <?php while( $this->have_fields() ) : $this->the_field(); // each field is one cell ?>

            <td class="<?php echo $this->field->name ?>-field">
              <?php $this->field->print_value() ?>
            </td>

        <?php endwhile; // each field ?>
        </tr>
      <?php endwhile; // each record ?>
      </tbody>

    <?php else : // if there are no records ?>

      <tbody>
        <tr>
          <td>No Records Found</td>
        </tr>
      </tbody>

To this:

<tbody>
      <?php while ( $this->have_records() ) : $this->the_record(); // each record is one row ?>
        <tr>
			<td>
				<table>
					<?php while( $this->have_fields() ) : $this->the_field(); // each field is one cell ?>
						<tr>
							<td class="<?php echo $this->field->name ?>-field">
								<?php $this->field->print_value() ?>
							</td>
						<?php endwhile; // each field ?>
						</tr>
				</table>
			</td>
        </tr>
      <?php endwhile; // each record ?>
      </tbody>

    <?php else : // if there are no records ?>

      <tbody>
        <tr>
          <td>No Records Found</td>
        </tr>
      </tbody>

Not sure if that is the most elegant solution, but it worked to turn the horizontal table setup into a vertical table setup.
