      I have been working on my first plugin with Piklist, using both the Tutorials and the Demos as examples. I have been able to create a custom post type, along with a meta box with additional fields. From how I understand, in the header of the meta box I included Post Type: member, but when I go and look at the edit page, I can only see the title box, not my meta box.

      Please advise where I am going wrong.

      Sure. I have it below.

   piklist('field', array(
    'type' => 'group'
    ,'label' => 'Address'
    //,'description' => 'An Un-grouped field. Data is saved as individual meta and is searchable.'
    ,'fields' => array(

      Did you try enabling wp_debug? Guessing there is a syntax error somewhere.

      You registered the post type members ( plural), but the comment block is set to member (singular). They need to match.

      I have made them match (now they are all members) but it’s still not showing. Is there something else I might need to correct?

      If you want to zip up the plugin/theme and email to [email protected], we can take a look.

      @msmith–

      Got your email and zip. You just need to add: Plugin Type: Piklist to the comment block of your main plugin file, in your case members.php. The full tutorial is here >

      Let me know if you still have issues, but it’s working fine for me.

      Thanks for your help. I thought I went back and checked that, but apparently not.
