Hey Jared! I was at WCSD for your presentation…it was great. Been super busy finishing up some open projects, now on the verge of starting some new ones and I want to implement some Custom Post Types. Can you point me to some further documentation or source code for adding custom meta boxes / content editors / image upload etc. for the post edit page? Trying to create a richer CMS for my clients who need more advanced control over their custom themes. Thanks!!!
Just a follow-up: I used the code for metaboxes you linked to on GitHub (I remember this from WCSD too), and it’s AMAZING! I’m so excited to have this flexibility without using a plugin! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I just added two cpt and one taxonomy. the taxonomy is assigned to both cpt. When I add a tag to the cpt the publish and the update button remove the assigned tag from the custom post. Quick update works.
I tested and tested and it seems that it is connected with the
Custom-Metaboxes-and-Fields-for-WordPress
in particular with the “taxonomy_multicheck” – type.
If I use that type then the update of the custom post removes the assigned tags, but when I comment out that metabox field the update function works.

No problem. Here are some good resources to get started.

For metaboxes I’d check out

Thanks for this! And for your quick response 🙂 Will be digging in this week.

Any ideas?
