 * Am looking to be able to post content with a set structure. So I would like to
   add some extra fields which are separate to the standrda content editor from 
   within a post.
 * Have looked at a couple of extra field plugins, both of which were very difficult
   to figure out how to use and there were poor explanations of how to deploy them,
   so that content would render in the published post.
 * Is there a standrd way in which extra fields can be added, without too much fuss?

 * Thanks for this, I was hoping for an plugin which helps perform the task without
   hard coding?

 * yes this is the plugin which i found way to complex for me. As a non – developer
   I am looking for something simple to use.
 * I need to set up a template which allows content in a structured way in the post
   page.
 * The content can then be presented accordingly for all posts.Effectively a rating
   post, where the following content is something like:
    - Title, description, cost,app type etc
    - The form should allow the users to enter their content and when approved this
      is how the content should be presented.
    - I have tried the Custom Fields Shortcode – arising:
    - I generate the shortcode . I then add the shortcode and nothing appears apart
      from the shortcode itself!
    - so that does not work
