CUSTOM FIELDS / FREE

atshift Fields

Build WordPress
custom fields for
real-world use.

Titles, content, categories, tags, featured images, and publishing controls can live inside the same field group. atshift Fields retains the main stored-data structures and APIs of the original Custom Field Suite while letting you build an admin experience around the real order of content work.
