INTRODUCTION
------------
The Extra Field UI module provides an easier way for developers to configure and
display extra fields on any Entity Form (including node and user).
If you are not a developer then you probably shouldn't enable this module.

REQUIREMENTS
------------
* This module depends on the "field_ui" module.
INSTALLATION
------------
No special installation needed.
CONFIGURATION
------------
* To use this module you need to have at least one extra_field on your entity.
* Alternatively, you can enable the entity_property_field module and have
all your properties to be automatically converted into extra_fields.
* On every entity "Manage Fields" UI, all the extra fields of that entity
will have an "edit" link on its row.
* On the extra_field configuration page you will be able to add settings for:
- Label
- Required
- Help text
- Default value
- Widget Type
- Options List
- Active
* Each configured settings will then be reflected on that entity's add/edit
page.
Please note that there are some configuration sets that are incompatible.
Example: "textfield" type with "options list" set.
* This is specially useful if you use this value on the backend for any
custom processing or if you have the entity_property_field module enabled.
Important: All configuration will be saved on field_bundle_settings.
