I'm looking for something where I could insert a tag onto the web page (or Wordpress post) to call data for that particular item from a database and display it in an intuitive format. The database could be accessible only by me, or could be a wiki. Does anyone have any leads? I've searched to no avail.

Basically, it's just one new field for each piece of data you want to store/display. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2009:site.114980-1651039 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 09:00:54 -0800 camworld
