A couple of field types address, widget field, link as plugins #1171
Description
3rd Party Resources
I needed these for a project this weekend. There may not be perfect, but I got the site shipped today, so...
Address field
Basically just the same as the one in the snippet library, just as a separate plugin. I am sure someone has already done this, but I couldn't find one.
Link Field
The link field is cool because it includes some additional fields for various link attributes. Probably add more attributes over time.
Widget Selector
Ok, this one is weird. I needed a way to reference preconfigured widget instances on content entry forms, similar to how Drupal's Block Reference field works. This is not obvious to me in WordPress, but I find it can be very useful.
What I wound up doing is creating a sidebar when it's installed. You can then drop in Widgets, configure them, then reference them in the metabox.
