 * Hello everyone,
 * I’m looking to increase my skills by learning how to add elements to a page or
   post’s edit page. For example, adding a form underneath the edit page or post’s
   TinyMCE.
 * Can anyone point me to where I should start learning because I’ve tried searching
   on my own and cant seem to find what I’m looking for.
 * Thank you all in advance,
 * Lonard

 * You need a custom meta box. The content would be part of the edit page’s principal
   form, you wouldn’t create your own form, rather add fields to the principal form.
