subscribing....I'm lost too. I just got over the excitement of getting editablefields working and am looking forward to adding this to it.

I cannot find options anywhere to allow the field to be editable via AJAX. A simple description of how to do this would most likely suffice. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Same problem... on the project page:

You will need something like this:
<div class=ajaxeditable nid=<?php print $node->nid?> field="field_[name of your field]">........</div>

This had let me thought that I needed to paste some code somewhere in contemplate or any relevant *.tpl.php file. But the following:

More entertainingly, you can install editablefields, and then all the nice views you build with that will magically be editable using ajax....

let me thought that editablefields would instantly enable editablefields'ajax features, or the other way around... so I haven't tried the first (con)template option (I'm not good enough to do so).

Therefore I can't find the way to make it work...

contemplate does help....it opens up code in the Drupal UI to to edit how and in what order fields are shown in a node. Really useful! I hadn't used it before this issue came up.

Adding those tags mentioned made the fields editable.

I seem to recall running into more issues with it that stopped me from using it (but I can't recall what it was). I think it was lacking support for certain CCK field types (drop-downs).

It is progress into reducing screen refreshes...I am sure it will evolve nicely.
