Hello - I am in need of a button that allows the front end user to hide all other entries from a view when choosing a "winning" entry. I've created a short cut that shows the entry ID of the field per entry and have my little button all ready to go, but can't figure out how to make a function/script that only displays the specific entry selected by the user & hiding the rest. Even deleting the rest of the entries would be okay, if there is a reverse [deletelink] option. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

On the front end, you should be able to hide everything but the selected entry through jQuery. Loop through all the entries and use hide().

BTW, there is no reverse delete option. Once an entry is deleted from the database, it's gone for good. There's no recovery other than restoring from backup.
