A few questions

Hi. I 've been evaluating several CMSes so far (open source ones) and none of them seems to meet all my requirements. ST seems good for what I need but before I decide to buy I need to clarify a few things:

1) Do custom fields actually work or am I doing something wrong? I'm especially interested in them working for files (downloads). I couldn't get them to display with the demo on esselbach.com, although the application said they were successfully created. Am I doing something wrong?
What I'm looking for is adding extra fields to a file like this:
 http://www.soft32.com/index-12-0-0-1-4.html

 http://www.soft32.com/index-12-0-0-1-4.html

Will ST later support adding yes/no options (like in the example above) or multiple choice custom fields?
2) How difficult would it be to integrate a banner management system with ST Pro, (say PHPAdsNew)? Has this been done or at least tried by anyone?

Thank you.

Hello Cosmin,

Sorry for the inconvience.

It look like your order has failed RegSoft's automated fraud review system. Now you need to wait that someone from RegSoft manually review your order. You won't get billed until the order is complete.

Well, I just placed an order by card yesterday (December 28, 2004) at around 23:00 GMT and still no answer from regnow.com. What do I do? I don't even know if my card' been billed or not. Delivery was supposed to be within 12 hours. I wrote to them to inquire about my order and still no answer.

The new fields are only visible in the admin section and not on the submit form. To use the fields, just add $insert[download_extra1] - $insert[download_extra20] in the download_details template.

Multiple choice fields are already supported => Enabled, dropdown menu => Option1,Option2,Option3,..

I suggest that you either try an local installation of the  Freeware version or the Turck MMCache encoded  1.8 evaluation copy

This should work quite easy by adding the ad code in the site_header template.
