Hope that'd help Khanh Hi Rob, thank you for using my plugin

To construct the csv, you need to extract meta data from each post using get_post_custom() then filter them out and take only those with underscore (_) in front of the meta data name.

Hope that’d help

A simple question: what is the simplest way of extracting all the data that is input into the forms? I need to create a csv/excel file to upload to Google. I have tried DBAdmin, but it's really crude and I can't construct an appropriate select statement. I honestly don't know where to start, and any suggestions would be very useful. Regards ROB Hi Khanh

I really love how it is simple on my eyes and the data are well written. I am wondering how I could be notified whenever a new post has been made.

I have a group with multiple dynamically addable textfields. I type something like "Hello world, this thing's really amazing" and the apostrophe in thing's is where the data being echo's is where the cut off happens. But like I said, it saves the data fine.

On v0.4.3 of the plugin apostrophes seems to break the output on the admin area. The data is saved correctly to the database, but when displaying it again in the admin, it basically cuts off the data being displayed. This often causes broken HTML being echo'd onto the page. Do you have any suggestions for a fix? Hey Khahn

In other words, here is how you can reproduce the bug: (1) Create a new box and register it for a specific post using its ID (2) Create a group with a text custom field inside it (3) Assign value for the custom field (4) Try to get the custom field value using the shortcode [field key='XX'] Well, taking a look at the code, specifically the file fs-shortcode.php, I see that the function get_field() tries to extract the value searching in the boxes that are registered for chosen post type(s), which ignores the case where you have post-specific registered box(es), like my case.

It simply outputs nothing. Is it a known issue or something with my installation?

Honestly, the interface of this plugin can be greatly improved. It isn't the most efficient interface at all. As an example, you would go into tens of page refreshing and waiting moments to update all of your groups in order to modify the layout setting. I would recommend taking a look at Advanced Custom Fields plugin for inspiring, since it has one of the most easy-to-use, efficient and intuitive interface from my experience. Another feature request I would ask for, is to specify the parent post ID of all posts that I want to register my custom fields for. Thanks Khanh! Oh, I see.. one-column layout is what I needed.

For the css I think it's better to put it in another plugin, I'll note it as a future feature. Thanks for your input! Hi Ma’moun,

You can set the group’s layout to one-column.

For the css I think it’s better to put it in another plugin, I’ll note it as a future feature. Thanks for your input!
