Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Plinth Custom Fields lets you build custom field groups and attach them to post types, page templates, specific pages, or post statuses — without depending on any other plugin.

Key features:

  • 12 field types: Text, Textarea, Number, Email, URL, Image, Select, Radio, Checkbox, True/False, WYSIWYG Editor, and Repeater
  • Repeater fields with drag-to-reorder rows and nested sub-fields
  • Location rules with AND/OR logic — show fields only where you need them
  • Import and export field groups as JSON, so you can move configurations between sites
  • Template functions for theme developers: plinth_get_field(), plinth_the_field(), plinth_get_image(), plinth_get_rows(), plinth_have_rows(), plinth_the_row(), plinth_get_sub_field(), plinth_the_sub_field()
  • All data stored in standard wp_postmeta, prefixed with _plinth_ so it never collides with other plugins
  • Zero external dependencies — works entirely on top of WordPress core

For Theme Developers

Once a field group is created and assigned to a location, pull the values into any template file:

php $title = plinth_get_field( 'hero_title' ); $image = plinth_get_image( 'hero_image', null, 'large' );
