    Hi Xnau,

    First I would like to thank you for this great plugin!

    I am using it to keep all the information of all the websites I am administrating. I have about 50 fields that are sorted in groups like “Main”, “Hosting Info”, “FTP Info”, “WP Info” etc.

    I am displaying an overview list of everything which contains links to the individuals infos mentioned above.

    I did this by adding a hidden field as a link for each group to every website. This link contains the page and the personal identification code. On the page this link goes to I have the [pdb_record groups=”main”] short code.

    While this works, I am always in editing mode. It’s not a question if I will ever deprecate an entry, it’s a question of when will it happen.

    I wonder why this mechanism doesn’t work wit [pdb_list groups=”main”] or better [pdb_single groups=”main”]? Or if I am doing something wrong.

    Thanks!

    The “groups” attribute works for the single record shortcode. Check your shortcode to make sure it’s exactly correct:

    [pdb_single groups="main"]

    Of course, you must use the regular ID of the record (not the private ID) to identify which record to show. Something like:

    /single-record?pdb=23

    Thanks! Works like a charm.

    The link to the pages look like this now: siteURL/?page_id=xy&pdb=1
    And the shortcode on the page: [pdb_single groups=”main”]
