Yep, take a better look on how extrafields work. All you need is to use existing SQL table and functions.

isnt this already possible? since th extra fields are stored in the sql satabase you could request them everywhere? you just need the right tag like ex

['ruserextra6']

or anyway, that was how i did it in seditio.

Vile I was playing around in with Extra fields for pages and Extra fields for users I got an idea that (at least I think) would be quite effective >> Extra fields for plugs.

What I was thinking is that why not also make a ”Extra fields for plugs” section and make it possible to retrieve data from both the user page and from a single page.

I think it would be really nice to be able to pull data by just by adding an extra field tag in the page.add.tpl or the users.profile.tpl and then put a tag in the desired plug.tpl to retrieve the information.

Anyways this is just an idea could probably be done in a better way, so tell what you think of it?
