Slightly modded Options Framework

I notice that everytime you create a new option using the array of options, it makes a nice title for the option with a border then gives the option you created. How would you go about creating a group of options? To show that they are all related?

I posted a possible workaround to the question you posted above here http://aquagraphite.com/2011/09/slightly-modded-options-framework/#comment-239

Have a look and all the best!

@sy4mil what a cracking job you’ve done with this framework,wish id found it a long time ago, im a photographer and im building my first ever premium wp theme,ive been searching and searching for a way to create slidesets in a nice clean way.would love to have a little more functionality tho,for instance,i’d like to be able to create unlimited slides in sets,and be able to assign id’s and categories to each set in the option panel. i know it can be done somehow as ive seen it done in the “dynamix” theme here on tf. The layout manager is a work of art and ive loads of ideas for its use. keep up the good work

is this something you could achieve?

Sorry, must have missed that.

I’m not familiar with the Dynamix theme. The easiest way & safest way I can think of to achieve what you need is to use custom post types. Your customers may not appreciate losing their slide sets if they accidentally reset the options.

Exactly. Instead of complicating SMOF we should use built-in wp features. There is always someone who wants JUST ONE SIMPLE option, but when you multiply this by 50 or more users the only effect is a really big mess.

Just updated SMOF to v1.3 – SMOF on Github

Also, this is a recommended read if you’re planning to use the framework in your theme – Using SMOF the smart way

Enjoy!

Just saw the license for SMOF . Absolutely brilliant and I’ll be using that from now on too

Currently one of the top 5 best selling items on Themeforest is using SMOF

SMOF just saw a massive update to V1.4.0

- Better file structure, paths etc

- Added options data transfer between installs

- Added checkbox groups options

- Full compatibility with WP 3 .3.1 and PHP 5 +

- etc etc

Everything is also a lot faster now (I think)

Test it out and go make some cool themes.

Once again, great stuff! Does this release have the shortcode generator you were toying around with?
