Hi!
I have to create a custom content class that should contain:

-one image with a caption
-one video with a text description
-one file attachment with the file name

Which are the best attributes to use for this class?
I know that for the image, for example, there's the image datatype, but it has no possibility to add a caption. The idea could be to add a "text line" datatype for the caption. The same can be done for the description of the video and the name of the attachment.

Do you have a better idea?

Thanks, Albe

Seems like exactly what should be done (other than programming your custom datatypes).
