 * Thx Roland,
    The reason I want to adapt the email address is that I want to test
   a few of the records that are already in the database (total ~700).
 * With your hint of record_edit_url filter I was able to solve my issues.
 * <?php
    add_action(‘pdb-before_send_retrieve_link_email’, ‘pdb_myemail’); function
   pdb_myemail ($s) { $s->recipient=’my@email.com’; return ($s); }
 * add_filter (‘pdb-record_edit_url’, ‘pdb_myurl’);
    function pdb_myurl($s) { $s
   =str_replace (“record”,”list”,$s); $s=str_replace (“pid”, “search_field=code&
   value”,$s); return ($s); } ?>

 * Hi Roland,
    Is it possible to replace the record_link in the list display by 
   one that links to the pdbrecord page instead of the pdbsingle page?
 * SI have several records grouped together by a CODE field, such that the URL
    
   [http://site/pdblist?search_field=code_field&value=CODE](http://site/pdblist?search_field=code_field&value=CODE)
   displays a set of records. When I use one of the record fields for a record_link,
   that link brings me to the URL [http://site/pdbsingle?pdb=xxx](http://site/pdbsingle?pdb=xxx)(
   where xxx is the ID of the record).
 * I would like to link to the record (update) page: [http://site/pdbrecord?id=xxx](http://site/pdbrecord?id=xxx)
   or preferably [http://site/pdbrecord?private_id=yyy](http://site/pdbrecord?private_id=yyy)(
   for security reasons)
 * UPDATE : I just found this:
    [https://xnau.com/adding-an-edit-record-link-to-the-frontend-list/](https://xnau.com/adding-an-edit-record-link-to-the-frontend-list/)
   I think I should read that first

 * I just like the pdb too much to give it up too soon. If you can’t get it to work,
   change the requirements 🙂
    I’m investigating to leave the idea of master/subrecords.
   Just one record for the whole family, which in our case has a max of 6 children.
   Location info: 6 fields Max 2 parents : 10 fields Max 6 kids : 30 fields
 * signup, record, list, single all tried out, but I have no clue how I can display
   a page with [pdb_single] on it after submitting a record_update. I tried the “
   action=Singlepage”, but that shows nothing and I don’t really understand how 
   the record-id of the record_update page should be passed to the pdb_single page.

 * Dear Roland,
    Thank you very much for your fast and insightfull reply. The master/
   sub-record(s) is exactly what I am looking for. I think it is better to look 
   for another approach than trying to tweak the PDB for something it is not really
   designed for. This will save me a lot of frustration. Maybe one of the readers
   of this forum can point me to a solution/plugin/approach that better fits my 
   needs.
 * Thanks again
