Advanced Page Template is a nice new approach to custom fields by page template. 
Please try to configure the custom fields easily in the template file itself using this plugin.
It doesn’t require to save any configuration data to database, just config the custom fields in template file itself as how wordpress recognize the templates – Its just wordpress way!
I think that it makes developing and deploying more easy and more sense for the developers. 🙂
Note: I highly recommend you to install and activate Advanced Custom Fields plugin so as to get its perfect benefit. Field Types only works with Advanced Custom Fields plugin.
<h4>Usage</h4>
Open a template file with any text editor and add some additional templating comment lines starting with @custom_field keyword:
Example 1:
<pre>
/*
* Template Name: 2column-layout
*
* @custom_field main, type: wysiwyg, label: Main content
* @custom_field sidebar, type: wysiwyg, label: Sidebar
*/
</pre>
Example 2:
<pre>
/*
* Template Name: Contact Page
*
* @custom_field photo, type: image, label: Photo of manager
* @custom_field phone, type: text
* @custom_field map, type: google_map
* 
* Note: The photo, phone, map are the custom field names in each '@custom_field' line,
* therefore use wordpress's 'get_post_meta' or ACF's 'get_field' method with those custom field names to get the values in this template. :)
*/
</pre>
Please bring the page edit link up in the backend and select the template which you just edited and hit ‘Update’ or ‘Save’ button. 
After page refreshing, You can’t miss new custom fields block from this template file.
Available Types and options with Advanced Custom Fields plugin are:
<pre>
/*

This plugin helps you to fix any missing thumbnail issue in a fairly short time. The only thing you need to do is just few simple click and the plugin does the rest. It can be really helpful if you have thousands of images in your database.
You can regenerate thumbnails for each single image in your database or you can simply select those you really want to update. If you choose a post or page the plugin will regenerate thumbnails for each related images. You can choose from the following methods:
<ul>
<li>Regenerate thumbnails for all images in the database.</li>
<li>Bulk action in post liste: You can choose which one to update by checking the checkboxes.</li>
<li>Media library items: Move your mouse over the chosen image(s) and click on “Regenerate thumbnails” link.</li>
<li>Post editor: click on “Regenerate thumbnails” button which is next to “Add media” button. (Off by default)</li>
</ul>
Furthermore you can add your own thumbnails sizes, change default JPG compression rate and mass regenerate thumbnails. The best thing about this plugin is that you can use it with custom post types as well.
