Answer 1

Here is all you need to do it in wordpress backend

• Custom UI Plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-post-type-ui/

• Custom fields: (Advanced Custom Fields plugin) http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/

Here is all you need if you want to code your functions.php

• First forget about the custom ui plugin

• Custom post type : (register_post_type) http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type

• Custom taxonomy: (register_taxonomy) http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_taxonomy

• Custom fields: (Advanced Custom Fields plugin) http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/

Steps

1 - Register your post type and taxonomy (tags) in your function.php

2 - Create custom fields with acf plugin

3 - Create your taxonomies (tags)

4 - Create example post

6 - Create page template that would fetch signers (WP_Query()) http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query

7 - Associate template to a page of your site.
