Custom Fields Plugin for WordPress
Today version 1.4.2. of your favorite WordPress custom fields plugin was released.
This version addresses GitHub issue #72: Feature request : Assign connectors to templates, meaning that it is now possible to add a page template like this:
<?php
/*
Template Name: Test template for Simple Fields
Simple Fields Connector: attachments
*/
And then all posts or pages that use that template will also use the “attachments” post connector.
Just a quick screenshot to show the Import and Export function that I’m currently working on. This function will make it much more easy to move fields from one server to another (if you’re not using PHP functions to add your fields, that is).
Simple Fields version 1.2 has just been released. Some nice things to mention with this release:
The next version of Simple Fields comes with support for some of the new input types available HTML5. These fields are great when you need your users to enter valid URLs, emails, dates or colors.
It’s soon time to release a new version of Simple Fields. The next version has pretty many bug fixes, but also some new features like:
This is a little sneak preview of something I am working on right now: the option to have fields outputted in a more space efficient and less cluttered view. It’s very suitable when you have a few fields that are repeatable, like this image example with image fields and text fields will show:
Twice the amount of cats in the same area size! Not bad. Stay tunes for this small but great update in an upcoming version of Simple Fields.
I just released an update of Simple Fields where the dropdown field got a small update so you can have dropdown with multiple choices selectable. Pretty basic – but pretty useful too. Continue reading
Version 1.1.2 of Simple Fields is out now. It features… Continue reading
Just wanna give you some short info about a new field type that soon will arrive in Simple Fields: The jQuery DatePicker field type. Or as I like to call it: “Datepicker 2”. Continue reading
Version 1.0.4 of Simple Fields is now live. It’s a small update that features two noticeable changes:
This update features an updated edit post screen, with the label of each field now positioned to the left, makes each field group use up less space and also making the fields more scannable. I’ve tried this for a while myself and I really like it. Please post a comment and let me know what you think of this change!
Editing fields: Before on the left and after this update on the right.
Yes, finally! Long awaited feature: when using repeatable fields, each field group now also has an “add link” at the bottom. Makes much sense when using Simple FIelds and it’s repeatable fields-feature for attachments and image galleries/slideshows. Before this update you could only add new fields to the top, making it really annoying and cumbersome when you wanted to add something to the end/bottom of the list.
Many of the new features that I add to Simple Fields are features that I’ve received as feature request from you users out there. So if you have a feature request (or a bug report!) please don’t hesitate to let me know by adding an issue over at Simple Fields GitHub page.
