#417 - Usability for alternative field inputs

This is a spacer post for a website comment topic. The content this topic relates to: #417 - Usability for alternative field inputs
The normal UI paradigm is to present some radio buttons, and underneath each radio button provide the details relating to that choice.

E.g.

(*) Upload photo
UPLOAD ______

( ) Provide URL
URL ______


Composr's interface is a bit quirky given this UI paradigm was never designed into it. Composr forms are a sequence of fields, they aren't deep structured in this way. That's the original modular design, which makes for straight-forward PHP coding, and allows for shared templates, but we can still make it more sophisticated without really losing those original design goals.

It just would take some time though.

This is now implemented. A screenshot example of the new kind of layout is attached. This is implemented throughout the system now. It won't be in v8 as that is in lock-down, but I will prepare a v8 patch for this.
I have attached a patch file (for developers really), and also a TAR file of files that can be extracted on top of a v8 installation.
