The last two weeks have been going a lot better than at the beginning.  I've been working on the admin section that actually manages the contacts.

In order to facilitate the integration of the custom fields to the contact, I had a chat with my mentor and we've decided that it would be easier if I made some changes to my original database schema.  Although I had to make changes to my code, it didn't take me long and I was back to coding new features.

So what are the features that I've been working on you ask. To start off, it is now possible to assign multiple categories to a single contact and also choose the ordering of the contact in each category that has been selected. Secondly, every time a field is created in the field manager, it shows up in the edit contact page. And finally, if is also possible to show or hide each custom field by changing the contact parameters.

The only major thing that need to be completed before I start work on the front-end of my component is to fully  complete the store method that will save the contacts information in the tree different database tables that I am using.

Once that is done, I will work on the front-end and the actual presentation of the component. I'm hoping to have a basic working component for mid-term.

Here is a screen shot of the edit page of the contact manager:
