If you have ever worked on a drupal website, this will look very similar. This would allow some to create a custom content type, and then be able to create a set of custom fields around that content type. From there you could then use the twig interface to create a nice custom layout. You can kinda achieve this with the blog plugin using categories, but its hacky and you cant create custom fields.

Example:

Portfolio Item

  • Portfolio Image
  • Portfolio Type (Web/Logo/Print/...)
  • Portfolio short desc
  • Portfolio long desc
  • ...

Videos

  • Video Title
  • Video URL/Upload
  • Video Description
  • ...

If this is already possible, I would love to see how!

David, did you ever come across a solution for this? I'd love to use October for a project but I'm having the same issue you are.

We come from Drupal too, and we found that the builder plugin already do that in a partial way.

It's more like you create an entire new module, but it's soo easy to do that finally, it's a little like new content type creator of Drupal.
