I need to add a couple of simple text fields to RelatedLinks data type so it have not only caption and url but also source (like site name for external link) and date. Is it possible to do it in a simple way without modifying Umbraco source code?
You could copy the datatype out of the source code and create a new datatype based on it. But before going to all that trouble, I would recommend using an embedded custom datatype like one of the following:
One of the above datatypes allow you to store rows of data. They all support a good number of datatypes. Unfortunately non, support tinymce real well, but they get the job done most of the time.
