   You can write the code in you're functions.php or use a plugin. Either way you will need to edit you're template files.

   - Use magic fields plugin.
   - Read this: http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Custom_Fields_to_attach_images,_links_or_files_to_a_post_easily and This: http://wparena.com/how-to/the-power-of-wordpress-custom-fields/

   Hope it helps.

   HI thanks for the links,i used the custom fields template plugin and i managed to get something done i have the checkboxes but if i check 3 boxes it produces 3 customfields whit the same name and on the articles page it only displays the first in the alphabetic order.

   in the php file it looks like this:

   <?php if(get_post_meta($post->ID, 'something', true)) { ?>
   Something: <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'something', true); ?><?php } ?>

   hows can i make the check boxes put their values in one single custome field, or have all same named customfields appear on the page

   cause i think is a mess to have different customfield for each checkbox and putting it after another in the php file
