    Curstom data type to save team's member data (photo, name, skills..)

    Gents,

    Can you give a new user of Umbraco the way to save team's member data, is it by creating a UC and make it as custom data type? so how Umbraco will save data as list of members' metadata under 'team' tab?

    There are several ways to achieve this.

    You can create a document type called Team Member that has all the necesarry properties. You can add those as child items of your teampage.

    Another way would to create a datatype with the Archetype property editor and add that to your team tab.

    For more information about Archetype go here : http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/archetype

    Dave, do you mean by option one to create a document(content) based on member doc type then add child pages based on member doc type too?

    I think option one is a bit long, about option two Archetype I couldn't access the field to set Label!

    enter image description here

    Is there any option using UC?

    I find that the issue with the package has an answer here using FF(click field name to enable it).

    So did you manage to build what you want using Archetype ?

    In my way, Dave. Is there any option to have more control rather than using a plugin?

    You can create your own property editor to match all your needs.

    Here is some reading to get you started :

    Tim has some excellent blog posts as well : www.nibble.be (just search for property editor)
