Hi – I’m using WordPress 3.0 and Magic Fields 1.4.1.

I’m looking for a way to display shortened “teasers” of my posts – and am open to using either WordPress’ bulit-in Excerpt system, or the tag to achieve this.

Basically, we are using Magic Fields to populate posts on a page with a long list of posts. First, I don’t see any option to create an excerpt when creating a post. Second, when I use the tag, though the split appears in the editor, it doesn’t show up on the post page.

Any suggestions or alternate methods? The site is in private beta but I can share a link via a private message / email.

Thanks for the great plugin!

Josh

I’ve created a write panel with a file field. When I try to create a new page using that panel I get an “authentication failed” message where the upload field should go. Any help appreciated.

In case you’d like to see a fairly intensive use of your plugin I completed a site for a client that relied heavily on Magic Fields to make each element on the front page of the magazine a separate field on the admin side. Used it for the articles but not as heavily.

‘Related Type’ seems to have disappeared on upgrade to 1.3.2. Anyone else having that problem?

Update: I’m using WordPress MU 2.9.2.
