   I recently started fiddling around with the custom fields portion of WordPress, which is great.

   What I'm looking to do, is each time I write a "page", have the custom fields displayed, in the same order on the "write" page, each time.

   I realize I can use the drop down, and add each one, each time, but that would be time consuming for a page with 15 or 20 custom fields.

   Is that possible? If not with WordPress itself, maybe a plugin? I just don't want to have to use the dropdowns to enter the same 20 custom fields each time.

   I've not used it (yet), but I wonder if this plugin would be helpful: http://rhymedcode.net/projects/custom-field-gui

   Thanks HandySolo (great name, BTW), I saw that plugin earlier, was just curious if there was something in WP core, to do this.

   I'd check out the plugin, but it seems the site's down. Will try again later.

   Thanks again.

   I tried the plugin, it doesn't seem to do what I want. It works fine for "posts", but the new form fields don't show up on the "page" portion, which is what I'm looking for.

   Any other suggestions?

   Hmm, no great ideas from me. I would've thought it would show up on the Page editor based on the actions. Bummer.

   Perhaps someone else will have some ideas.

   I use this: http://www.coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/#getcustom
   in conjunction with the custom-field-gui plugin to get the custom field data to show where I want on the page.
