Flare and MYSQL

Post by Bernie123 »

I was wondering if anyone had found a way to draw data from a mysql database into an HTML document so that data is kept "live" rather than just use Flares Keywords?
There is a rival to flare with this capability but its not as good as flare in other aspects

It depends a bit how 'live' your data is...
I have used the free Kaizen Plugin with Flare to import database content into topics, in a way that can automatically rebuild on a daily basis. Not technically 'live', but 'live enough' for my needs.

Thanks, I had not seen the plugin before.

I was referring to some of the legal software which enables you to set up contracts and tenders and then complete a mail merge from databases.

Flare is brilliant for many documentation tasks but like all software just lacks those few extras.
