Hi,
With FPro, I am trying to reduce the number of plugins in my project. How may I accomplish the following scenario?
1) Logged-in users submit a prayer request and can choose to remain anonymous or otherwise, when the request is submitted.
2)The submitted requests are displayed as a list in a table and this can be viewed by visitors.
3) A visitor clicks on any of the requests to read the details and thereby pray for the requester. This triggers an update of the request list table to indicate how many times the request has been prayed on and the requester is notified at the end of the day, how many times he has been prayed for, that day.
See a working example on this site:

Can FPro achieve this and how?
Thanks for your help.

This can be done, but will require a little custom code on your part to track the page views, as well as a little thought about exactly how you want it to work so you know where in the database to save it.
Other then that, it's pretty straightforward.
1. Create a form and don't require the name fields.
2. You can create a custom display to do this. The second half of this video includes an example of setting up a custom display:

3. The automatic daily email and tracking page views are not built in and will need to be done custom. Do you have a developer you could hire for this part?
