Thanks, that modification seems great, but maybe is some free plugin, modification or trick how to get about 20 custom fields?

Re: Creating more than 10 custom fields

Personally I’d say £10/$20 for the plugin is more than worth it and the license is very generous.

As you might realize, this plugin took quiet some time to put together. Contribute £10 (the equivalent of $20 or €10) to get updates for life and use the plugin on as many websites as you want.

It’s one of my must have plugins which I use on every TXP site I design.

I’ll second what Ross said – this is an essential purchase, at a reasonable price, and one you can use over and over again afterwards.

Re: Creating more than 10 custom fields

Looks very good, but for right now I dont need it, I just wanted to know that is there some other way to get more custom fields, just normal custom fields, I had a idea about some new PHP lines in some files what would allow to add more than 10 custom fields just pressing one buton and in that moment automatically creating SQL part too in database, I think it should be so hard for people who knows PHP and TXP file system.

http://archive.gerhardlazu.com/txp/blog/32/10-more-custom-fields-please

This is method how to add it in codeline without automatic, but part where I need to add some code around 400 isn’t usable now.

Re: Creating more than 10 custom fields

For the sake of mere completeness: If you don’t want/need the simplicity of practice that you can offer your customers by radio button fields, checkbox fields, selects/multi-selects, text areas, configurable date and time pickers, custom scripts (plus an admin side configuration panel for yourself. Oh yes: and support!), then there’s the tourist class solution: SQL (try locally, backup before!), which gives you simple, pure text input fields, each custom field needs four queries for adding (and again four for removing, and some pre-considerations). And because all this could be too easy: the article is in German.
