 * Hi all!
    I’m testing out the custom fields shortcodes plugin ([http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-fields-shortcodes/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-fields-shortcodes/))
 * It’s pretty amazing and really does a lot of what I’m looking for. There’s one
   function which I would love to have, and maybe someone can suggest a simple way
   to do it.
 * let’s say that you have a how to draw web site with each post being a separate
   project. You want to have a field called “colors required” so a person can search
   for paintings that use red, green and blue using a custom field search form.
 * So I have a custom field “uses_colors” and I want three different values. it 
   seems that I need to add custom fields with the same name for each one otherwise
   they show up in the drop down list as “red, gree, blue” instead of being able
   to pick one individually.
 * It’s kind of a tag function, I’m going for, but with different types of keywords
   that I would like to keep separate.
 * Think of keyword category one, keyword category 2. and each of these might have
   2-10 keywords. I would like to use the shortcodes plugin to do this. Any ideas.
 * Thanks!
