Setting up your FLEXlist

To set up your own FLEXlist you need to go to the homepage and fill out the form. You can give your list a name and choose from one of our ready-to-use lists. Then enter the personal code and click 'Create now!'.

You will now see your FLEXlist. If you choose a ready-to-use list, you are ready to go, otherwise you will need to add some fields to your list. A field is just like a column in a table. For example in an addressbook the fields could be: name, address, city and e-mail.

For each field you need to enter a name and a type. For most cases the simple text is sufficient. If you want to add larger text, you will need the "Long text" type. The Date, Number and Link types speek for itself. If you want to have a field with only a few possible values, you need the 'choice' type. If you choose this, you can enter the possible values, seperated by '|'.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I add an Item to a list?

To add a new item in your FLEXlist, simply click 'Add item!'. (located at the bottom right) Now fill in the form that has just appeared below the list. Then click 'Save item' and your item is added to the list.

What to do if my list gets full of old items?

If you use your list as a todo item, it will get full of done items. To prevent this from cluttering your list you can use the 'archive' option. To archive an item check the checkbox in front of the items you want to archive and click the [archive] button at the bottom. To immediately archive an item after editing click 'Save and Archive'

How can I delete my list?

Click on the white arrow next to the list name to open the drop-down menu. This menu has an option 'Delete List'. Click it and confirm your action. The list and all of the data in it will now be deleted forever.

Can I use an existing list as a template for a new one?

Yes you can! To use your list as a template click the white arrow next to the list name to open the drop-down menu. Now click on 'Copy this list'. This will bring you back to the list creation page. Choose a name for the new list, enter the captcha and hit the create button. Now you should have an exact copy of the structure of your list. (without the data of course)
