Adding 2nd/3rd body field to write page

Hello All,

I’m looking for a way to add a 2nd and 3rd body field to the WRITE page.
I realize this will probably involve a hack to both TXP files and the database.
Custom Fields won’t work for my particular need right now.

Any direction would be much appreciated.

There was a thread discussing how to convert a custom filed to another excerpt field. Perhaps that’s something you could adapt?!

Just a bookmark I kept for future reference. Be aware that this was around Txp 4.0.4 I think, so things might have changed.

Anyway, please, post back how you get on with this – I’m interested to hear.

Hey Martin,

Now that it’s been demystified I should be able to get it working.
I’ll report back when I’m done – I’ll be working on it later this week.

Cheers!
