    I’m looking for a tool that allows to build a database app quickly.

    we want to set up a database for coordinating help requests and volunteers during the actual pandemic crisis. as we are volunteers too, we don’t have any coding budget.

    what we are looking for is the following:

    registered volunteers should be able to change a int field in a database table by pressing a button.
    the idea behind is to change the status of an existing help request e.g. from “new” to “picked” and later to “done”.

    so we plan to set up two pages:
    1. a form where people needing help can insert their name and contact data
    2. a list of open jobs where volunteers can pick one and press a button to mark it as “picked”.

    as the end users a not computer aware, they should not be able to edit data filelds directly.

    question now:
    can your tool build something like this?

    Thx,
    Alex

    Hi Alex,

    Not 100% sure, but from what I understand from your question, I think this is possible. It’s just not possible with the standard version. I am developing a PRO extension (which is not free and not yet ready) that is able to do this. For your project I can give you the PRO extension for free.

    Please take into account:
    – There is no documentation of the PRO extension yet (but I want to help!)
    – The PRO extension is in an acceptable state at this time to use
    – But… you will also need the latest version of the standard plugin which has some unfinished work (not affecting your area of interest)

    If you want to use the PRO extension we should get in touch and get things going. You can use the website (wpdataaccess.com) to send me a message (footer > get in touch > contatcform).

    We can give it a try! Le me know what you think…

    Best regards,
    Peter
