Field can be of type textarea, TinyMCE, checkbox, radio buttons, drop downs or files. == Description == Simple Fields for WordPress let you add groups of fields to you edit post page. It is meant as a replacement for WordPress own custom fields. Simple Fields turns WordPress into an even more powerful Content Management System (CMS). #### Features and highlight * Add textboxes, text areas, checkboxes, radio buttons, dropdowns, and file browser to the post admin area * Much easier for the user than regular custom fields * Group fields together into logical groups. For example combine File + Name + Description into a an Attachments-group. * Use "repeatable" field groups to add many any amount of field groups to a single post (great for images or attachments!) * Use drag and drop to change order of added repeatable groups * Different post types can use different field groups - actually you can even use different field groups even for same post type * Nice GUI that looks like the rest of WordPress For more information check out my introductory blog post: http://eskapism.se/blogg/2010/05/simple-fields-wp-custom-fields-on-steroids/ Also check out this short tutorial: http://eskapism.se/code-playground/simple-fields/tutorial/ #### Beta? You bet! Please note that this plugin still is in a very early version. Please try it out but be aware of bugs. Also, please remember to backup your database, just to be sure if anything goes wrong. == Installation == As always, make a backup of your database first! 1. Upload the folder "simple-fields" to "/wp-content/plugins/" 1. Activate the plugin through the "Plugins" menu in WordPress 1. Done! == Screenshots == 1. A post in edit, showing two field groups: "Article options" and "Article images". These groups are just example: you can create your own field groups with any combinatin for fields. See that "Add"-link above "Article images"? That means that it is repeatable, so you can add as many images as you want to the post. 2. One field group being created (or modified). 3. Group field groups together and make them available for different post types. == Changelog == = 0.2.4 = - file browser: search and filter dates should work now - file browser: pagination was a bit off and could miss files = 0.2.3 = - some problems with file browser (some problems still exist) - added a "Show custom field keys"-link to post edit screen. Clicking this link will reveal the internal custom field keys that are being used to save each simple field value. This key can be used together with for example get_post_meta() or query_posts() - code cleanups. but still a bit messy. - removed field type "image". use field type "file" instead. = 0.2.2 = - can now delete a post connector - does no longer show deleted connectors in post edit = 0.2.1 = - works on PHP < 5.3.0 = 0.2 = - Still beta! But actually usable. - added some functions for getting values = 0.1 = - First beta version.
