3. Adding Meta Fields to Post Types

Once you have a Post Type, you can add structured data fields to it.

  1. Go to Native Custom Fields > Field Groups.
  2. Click Add New Field Group.
  3. 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").
  4. 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.

  1. Configure: Click each field to set its Label, Name (Meta Key), and Description.
  2. Save: Click Publish to make the fields active in the editor.
