    Hi There!

    First of all; I have been using the Custom Field plugin and it is great. I was really looking forwart to release of the Custom Write Panel. So thumbs up for this one!

    One problem: The published data trough the new Write Panels get posted as a "Post" but I would really need a "Page" publish, so I can list the new pages with wp_list_pages tag. Is there something I can do to the php code to change that?

    Thanks again!

  2. It could be easy, it could be hard. I can't tell really, that's why I'd rather not do it for the first release.

    You don't write Page a lot so I suppose you could still rely on WP Write Page's native functionality.

    ...Thanks for the response,

    actually I use WP as a CMS and really need to use the static pages; for me the Posts are not so interesting. Well - I hope, you decide to make the update!

  4. I understand if you need to use Pages. But just how often you create a new one? Can I see that site? It's just probably you've used WP wrongly.

    I am using posts for news items. All of the other pages are static pages. They all have defined meta data trough your Custom Fields plugin. The pages get listed by those meta fields.

    There is an image gallery that gets executed depending on the page you look at. The gallery plugin is Lazy.k.gallery.

    Am I ussing the pages wrongly? I am quite new to all of the php and CMS world so any comment would be apprechiated!

    _cheers

  6. For your site, you could have create categories Competitions, Exhibitions, Projects, Research, etc. You would, then, write a Post "Cagliari Museum" and save it under category "Competitions."

  7. I have the same need. I need to use it to create pages, and I can't imagine it's that difficult. After creating a page I went into the db and changed the following:

    UPDATE cccc_cccc.wp_posts SET post_parent = '5',
    guid = 'http://www.cccconsortium.com/providers/test-2',
    post_type = 'page' WHERE wp_posts.ID =9 LIMIT 1 ;

    The post parent is what page I want to be the parent and on that page you wp_list_pages().

    Hi, First of all, I would like to thank Joshua for this great plugin.
    I have installed it yesterday and so far everything seems to be working as expected.

    On the other hand, I have the same problem as "tomaz". I have a free online magazine for parents and the writers usually create new pages. I would LOVE to get rid of all those panels at the right of the Write Page screen. They are confusing for someone who only wants to write a title and a short text, and expect that to appear as a new menu item on the website...

    I know you are very busy right now but is there any way of doing this with your plugin?
    Thanks again!!!
