Hello!
I would like to use two source/via links..Can you please tell me how can I add those? Please note it should also appear on the Post editing pages like source & via.
Also, is it possible to add another Source-like link? I want to show a Image Credit there, so please tell me how to do that too.
thanks!
You might look at the custom fields plugin which lets you add additional fields to your post page and then insert the custom meta fields into your layouts.
http://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/
To add additional data entry fields in the post page (where you create articles), you need to basically “hack” the admin directives to add two new data entry fields. You would need to add new functions in the functions.php file for your two new fields, which write to post-meta, and then you would need to call those two new data fields in your theme layout.
This is easier to do with a plug in if you’re not used to creating new post-meta fields or editing the master functions.php file.
This is not as easy as simply cloning two elements in the theme.
I suggest you look at something like the plugin I suggested to create the two new data entry fields for post-meta, and then you would need to clone the existing two items in the theme but change the post-meta field names to the two new fields you create for data entry.
If that maskes NO sense you will want to Google how to add additional post-meta boxes.
SIMPLER METHOD: If you don’t need separate data entry boxes….
Alternately, you *could* just create two new user data fields from the drop down on the post page, and then use those for the two new post-meta fields. Then clone the source/via links, but with the two new data fields you create from the meta drop-downs on post page.
Not sure that helps. For the location of the source and via links you might simply do a “search” in a text editor/programmer tool for the word “via” in the page templates, but not sure if that is easy or not. Marius can likely specify what module or whatever that happens to be in now.
