Kirby Quick Add Plugin

This plugin provides a two panel section that provides a form to quickly add a new child page to a pre defined page structure. Initially it was build to quickly create new blog posts without having to navigate the page tree to the correct directory (e.g. blog/posts/[current year]).

Please consider this plugin as a show case how to build a simple custom section and not as full fledged and extremely customizable plugin. It's mainly built for my blog and just published because I wanted to write a post about it 🤪
