3. Adding Meta Fields to Post Types
Once you have a Post Type, you can add structured data fields to it.
- Go to Native Custom Fields > Field Groups.
- Click Add New Field Group.
- Location Rules: Select the Post Type where you want these fields to appear (e.g.,
"Show this group if Post Type is equal to Book"). - Add Fields: Use the Field Palette to drag and drop native WordPress components like:
– Text Control: For short titles or names. – Media Library: For selecting images or files directly from your library. – Color Picker: For brand or UI colors. – Date/Time Picker: For scheduling or event dates.
- Configure: Click each field to set its Label, Name (Meta Key), and Description.
- Save: Click Publish to make the fields active in the editor.
