This is a great extension to the Joomla CMS. Basically you can create and add custom item types that extend the basic Joomla article content type.

I have created a company profile item type that includes custom fields related to the company (company name, company contact, phone etc) which cannot be done via the normal article manager.

All custom fields are integrated into the article content body and are also available via the database table.

Would be even better if this was incorporated into the native joomla admin interface but hopefully this kind of functionality will be included with Joomla core soon.

Well done and thanks for a great extension!!

Honestly IMO one of the best extensions at JED. It unleashes Joomla to great flexibility and power. If you realise the power of Carsten Engel's extension your pulse goes faster and you feel like founding one of the true pearls at JED. With P & I you can achieve everything your capable to imagine. Thanks so much Carsten for making this possible. Your brilliant

No doubt, Joomla is an fantastic product. Yet there is a constant mind contortion going on because you have to think about menus when you want to generate any content (a page), or of menus do not generate content it may be a plugin that generates content, and that plugin has to be on the page in question for it to work.

This pages and items completely takes that mind bending out of the Joomla experience, and it is a real relief. Not that I could not reach the same results before, but the steps are only 10% and you see all the elements that create a page together, so it is just quick and easy to get the page you want.

this is a 10 out of five rating. A very flexible extension that can raise endless possibilities. This will be in the core of Joomla soon I can feel it. My respect for the brilliant coder Carsten Engel.

I've tried many extensions but this one is simply brilliant!
Simple but very powerful!

Will install this on every one of my Joomla sites!

if you have a lot of authors and don't want them to destroy your layout / corporate design using all kind of strange formattings, this extension is perfect! you can define custom itemtypes for any kind of content and make sure that authors dont't have to care about styling - they even don't have the ability to style if you want! so you can have full layout-control, wich is not possibble when using just a wysiwyg-editor.
thanks for this great extension!

I've installed this extension

WoW!
It's so powerful and Exellent!
You can do any thing with that in joomla ...

This extension hasn't got the credit it deserves in this directory. When it gets the frontend editing it will be something BIG.

Maybe the description doesn't remark clearly enough the most important features for me:
- You can add custom fields in different formats to content.
- You can use it as a template manager for content creation.

Dude! i mean! COME ON! this extension is AMAZING! i registered to write this comment! i am dazzled by how powerful this comment is, here is my story, i am creating a site with artists listing, and it was really a big problem for me to make my admins and moderators migrate from the old system i had which i built on codeigniter, to Joomla! the older system was easier for them since they are used to it and since the GUI provided them with what they need, so for me, i didn't want to put my feet in deep water before i study all the possibilities, and the quest to find the extension that can do what i want started, till i found this amazing little piece of extension! silent! and no one even commenting while it's AWESOME! seriously! creating custom items and putting them anywhere in your site has never been easier, this must be an editor's choice, and i am not related to the author of this extension by any form btw so you won't think i am being biased.. try it by your self!
