    <p>I'm writing a plugin which creates a custom post_type called "dictionary_entry" which has several custom meta boxes and fields. I'd like to add an addition field which allows the custom post author to upload an audio clip.</p> <p>I've done some digging and tried the code offered <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3249666/wordpress-3-0-custom-post-type-with-upload">here</a> but I can't get it to work.</p> <p>I think one possible answer to my question would be the "type" parameter for fields. I've seen "text", "textarea", "time", "color", "radio", etc. but I haven't been able to find a list of all the possibilities. Is it wishful thinking that there might be a field type: "file" or "upload"?</p> <p>I'm going to skip the code for adding the custom post_type, but here's an example of my code for adding the meta boxes (in case somebody else is trying to use this, remember to use your custom post_type in the 'pages' parameter):</p> <pre><code>//meta box code $meta_boxes = array(); $meta_boxes[] = array( 'id' =&gt; 'examples', // meta box id, unique per meta box 'title' =&gt; 'Examples', // meta box title 'pages' =&gt; array('dictionary_entry'), // post types, accept custom post types as well, default is array('post'); optional 'context' =&gt; 'normal', // where the meta box appear: normal (default), advanced, side; optional 'priority' =&gt; 'high', // order of meta box: high (default), low; optional 'fields' =&gt; array( // list of meta fields array( 'name' =&gt; 'Example 1', // field name 'desc' =&gt; 'Use it in a sentence? EX: Kanien\'kéha kahrónkha.', // field description, optional 'id' =&gt; $prefix . 'example1', // field id, i.e. the meta key 'type' =&gt; 'text', // text box 'std' =&gt; '', // default value, optional 'validate_func' =&gt; 'check_apos' // validate function, created below, inside RW_Meta_Box_Validate class ), array( 'name' =&gt; 'Translation 1', // field name 'desc' =&gt; 'What does the sentence mean? EX: I speak Mohawk.', // field description, optional 'id' =&gt; $prefix . 'ex_translation1', // field id, i.e. the meta key 'type' =&gt; 'text', // text box 'std' =&gt; '', // default value, optional 'validate_func' =&gt; 'check_apos' // validate function, created below, inside RW_Meta_Box_Validate class ) ) ); foreach ($meta_boxes as $metabox) { add_meta_box... //see the codex for add_meta_box() } </code></pre>

    1. COI don't have the PHP chops to answer your question directly, but maybe digging into someone else's code might help: http://tri.be/shop/wordpress-image-widget/ The widget/plugin is pretty simple and I've done some other modifications in the past to use on custom wordpress themes. They integrate the media uploader in their code and there's not too many lines of code to dig though. good luck

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
