Hi again... thanks for your help! I always use the kickstarter to develop extensions and plugins, but when I created this particular plugin there were no options to include an RTE field to configure it. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place, but I can't see how this would help me with my problem. Maybe I should be more precise with my questions to the list. For example:
- where can I tell the plugin to use an RTE texfield (or any other type, for that matter) in the backend? - How do I access the data the user enters via BE from inside the plugin's php code? - can I define actions when the user inputs data and saves the plugin from the backend? thanks, Antonio Christopher Torgalson wrote: > On Fri, Apr 25, 2008 at 4:03 PM, Antonio Reher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> any ideas? >> > > Yes: use the kickstarter extension--though you may want to search the > dev list first to find out a bit about its various imperfections.
