I've managed to get what I wanted working, I copy pasted the "sandbox plugin" and renamed it to "Test and test" everywhere that "Sandbox and sandbox" was listed which worked for my testing, but when I try to change the name to anything meaningful it doesn't work, has anybody found this error before or have a solution perhaps??

Maybe I also need to change something else somewhere?

I think that I've managed to figure it out now, I'm going to spend some more time working on it and cleaning things up but I have basic functionality so once I'm done I'll share some basic code and likely a write up on how I did it for anyone who may come across this and need the same thing.

I'm working on trial and error playing about with the code to try and get something working... If I manage to sort it out I will surely post here, but I've also emailed a more experienced user for some info and advice, so if he manages to help me then I will surely post the findings here and give credit where it's due!

Hello everyone...

I'm not too sure if this is too much to ask or not but, I have a question that some of you might just be able to help me with.

I need to be able to define a set of custom input fields in the admin panel of Monstra for page creation. I know that there is a blog plugin that I will be using but I'd like to copy this plugin and create multiple new instances of custom input fields for the creation of a different kind of listing that will act just like the blogging plugin features would allow. I hope that makes sense.

I'll try to elaborate a little more here; I'd need a 'new' section aside a blog that will allow users to create listings much like the blog but with custom input fields, so more than just a title, author and blog content. I have no idea about how I might create the custom fields in a plugin to be used with Monstra, but from what I've been reading on these forums I will need to make a custom plugin, I just can't find enough information as to how I would go about this.

If someone can help give me a basic example or point me towards information that will help me with this, I'd greatly appreciate it, this is mostly for a side project of mine but I really do think that I could make use of Monstra if I could do this, I find it rather intriguing and I'd like to use it for something.


Kind Regards,
Patrick.
