Please consult with me before making an add on to this hack. As it is my work and such, the add ons that you are trying to make for it may be in the next release and/or premium version.

What does this hack require?
Template Edits: 4
Products Imported: 1

5 Easy Steps
Step 1. Import the following product: product-extra_threadfields.xml
Step 2. Upload the files in the upload folder.
Step 3. Do the edits located below
Step 4. Edit the newly added options in admincp as you please
Step 5. Enjoy the hack.

F.A.Q
Q. How do i get extra fields to show in the "edit post" page?
A. This is only available in the premium version.

Q. If i do not want the fields to be shown automatically, can i do it manually?
A. You can manually show fields in threads or posts by using $thread[fieldx] in the postbit or showthread template. Replace x with the ID of the field you want. To find the ID of the field go to admincp >> Extra Threadfields >> Extra Fields Manager, and hover over a field. The number after fieldid = will be the id of your field.

Q. I updated all of the options, i installed it perfectly, i did all edits, and still the options are not showing when i go to add a new thread. What do i do?
A. It is believed that you have a hack interfering with this one. Take away the edit that you did for putting $extrathreadfields inside the newthread template, and do this instead:

Search for:
Code:
        <!-- / subject field -->
Add below:
Code:
        <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="fieldset">$extrathreadfields</table>
Enjoy the hack.

You need to be able to edit the thread in order to edit the extra fields.
Most of the time this privilege is only available to mods and admins.

What would be nice is to use AJAX and allow the user to double click on the extra field to edit it.

We hacked it so that the default search includes the extra fields.

If you're using FullText search, you need to add the extra fields to the full text index in MySql. Then change 6 lines or so in search.php so that the default search query includes your extra fields and you're good to go.

Installed premium version but the edit functionality for extra fields doesn't seem to work. Anybody got this working on the premium?

You need to edit the thread, not the post.

I'm sorry for not being able to find the answer through this long thread.

Once a new thread is saved, the edit page does not have the extra fields on it, does that mean that once submitted, these extra fields are not available for modification? Or am I missing something?

EDIT: I think I've got my answer here. Sad though.
