## Description

**Requires the plug-in [Advanced Custom Fields](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/).**

This is a very basic add-on to allow the ability for relationship fields that are
associated with a single related item, to be able to add a new
 item to the related
item without leaving the post/page you are currently editing. Uses a colorbox pop-
up to open the add new post window with very limited options.

Usage:

 * Install the plug-in (standard WordPress installation)
 * Set up a relationship field with only one related item (standard Advanced Custom
   Field configuration)
 * Add or Edit a post with the relationship and the new Add New button will show
   up on the relationship field
 * Click the Add New button to open Colorbox add new post for the related item
 * Click the publish button and the new item will be added (or click the X button
   to cancel) and the Colorbox will close
 * The newly added item will be available for selection in the relationship list

This plug-in was developed for [Tanabicom, LLC](http://www.tanabi.com) and [5D Spectrum, Inc](http://www.5dspectrum.com)
by [Fancy Fiber Designs](http://hosting.fancyfiber.com/design/)

## Installation

 1. Be sure to have **Advanced Custom Fields** installed and activated first
 2. Upload `acf-single-relationship-add-new` directory to the `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory
 3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 4. Start using the feature in your admin posts and pages

## FAQ

  Why do I need this plug-in?

Simply, it provides a method to add new relationship items while editing a post 
or page, so you don’t have to leave your current screen to get a new item to show
up.
 Even if you were to add in a new window, the new item may not show up in the
window you are working on. It is just a time saver, plain and simple.

  Why did you use Colorbox instead of Thickbox built into the WordPress Admin?

The desire was to use Thickbox initially, but WordPress administration does some
controlling of the size of the thickbox for the media upload and overriding these
defaults
 would be problematic for site I was working on at the time and presumably
other sites as well.
