It is possible to add custom information for each individual contact in Trombinoscope Contacts Pro, in addition to the information fields you can already select.
To achieve this, we take advantage of 3 events that are built in the extension.
With this tutorial, you will be able to add a new field type following the examples available in the sample plugin 'My Fields', which includes:
- a field type that outputs a link,
- a field type that outputs addresses on one line only,
- a field type that outputs a list of custom fields values of Text type,
- a field type that outputs values of a repeatable custom field made of text fields,
- a field type that outputs the last 3 articles created by a contact.
