The DS Sub Channel field is a fieldtype for ExpressionEngine 2.6 and above. The fieldtype allows you to create and edit new relations from within the publish panel of another entry.
Templating guide:
From within the channels loop you can call the custom field name like this:
{custom_field_name}{/custom_field_name}
The custom field supports all variables and parameters the channel module supports. Please check the ExpressionEngine documentation for details: http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/modules/channel/index.html

I stumbled upon this add-on by accident, and it filled a need I had perfectly (esp. after I just told the client we couldn’t do this). This add-on has a LOT of power and I wouldn’t hesitate to use again. And the fantastic support from Dion is the icing on the cake!

This add-on got us out of a jam with a demanding client that wanted something EE just doesn’t do natively. The add-on is fantastic - but the real star is the person behind it, Dion. He offers amazing support and was exceedingly helpful. Highly recommended due to both the software & the developer.

Great add-on for relating entries on the fly. Also, the support is amazing. Dion was able to point me in the right direction to answer all my questions..
