Modern Fields • Custom Fields for Gutenberg


Modern Fields offers a truly modern, WordPress-friendly approach to custom fields, with an impressively polished UX, and I’m really looking forward to seeing how it evolves.


A modern, WordPress-native field builder 👍


Managing custom fields is very simple. And the rendering for clients is really beautiful!


Best alternative to ACF


I've been looking for an alternative to ACF that integrates more natively with the Gutenberg editor for some time now, and I wasn't disappointed with my first project.It's looking good.


Very good experience


I was looking for an easy solution to build custom fields using the new Gutenberg component, this solution perfectly fits my needs! Congrats!


The best ACF alternative for the block editor!


I've been searching for an alternative to ACF that integrates more natively with the Gutenberg editor for a while, and after using one on my first project I can say I'm pleasantly surprised.



The workflow feels much more seamless, the editor experience is smoother, and building custom layouts with blocks is a lot more intuitive. Looking forward to testing it on more websites!


Wow! Finally, a block based ACF alternative


Enfin une alternative plus compréhensible aux ACFs Super boulot


Plus facile que les ACF


Bold move, I can’t wait to see how this evolves over time. It’s a bit of a change from what I'm used with ACF but it’s a fresh and modern direction.


Advanced and secured custom fields at the same time! 😏


Everything is inside the title ! This product is really cool. Thanks to the editor! 


Great product


Tried most custom-fields plugins over the years, and Modern Fields is the first that feels built for the block editor instead of bolted onto it. The visual field builder uses native WP components, and rendering values through the Field value block (block bindings) lets me output data with no code. Location rules, options pages, and registering CPTs from the admin cover most of what I used ACF for. Recommended.
