<p>The Dynamic Post Meta Plugin adds 6 shortcodes that allow you to add dynamic post meta information to your post content. Please read the Dynamic Post Meta Plugins readme.txt file for full instructions on using the shortcodes. All shortcodes will default to showing the currently viewed posts meta unless the “id” parameter is set to show a different posts meta information.</p>
<p>You can use the text editor in WordPress to add html tags around your shortcodes for formatting. For example you could add this in your posts text editor:<br />
<h3>[post-title]</h3></p>
<p>Here is a description of the 6 new shortcodes you can use after activating this plugin:</p>
<ul>
<li>[post-permalink id=123] >> This shortcode adds a clickable permalink to a post.</li>
<li>[post-date id=123] >> This shortcode adds a posts published date to your post content.</li>
<li>[post-modified id=123] >> This shortcode displays the last time a post was edited.</li>
<li>[post-author id=123] >> This shortcode displays a post author’s nickname(may need to fill this field in).</li>
<li>[post-title id=123] >> This shortcode adds a post title to your post content.</li>
<li>[post-excerpt id=123] >> This shortcode adds a post excerpt into your post content.</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Codeideal Open Fields</strong> lets you add custom fields to posts, pages, custom post types, taxonomies, and users. The admin interface is built with React and TypeScript — fast, responsive, and intuitive.</p>
<p>All features are free. No premium tier. No locked functionality.</p>
<h4>Quick Start</h4>
<pre><code>get_field( 'my_field' ) — retrieve any field value.

the_field( 'my_field' ) — echo a field value directly.
</code></pre>
<h4>Template Examples</h4>
<p><strong>Simple field:</strong></p>
<pre><code><?php echo esc_html( get_field( 'subtitle' ) ); ?>
</code></pre>
<p><strong>Repeater loop:</strong></p>
<pre><code><?php while ( have_rows( 'team_members' ) ) : the_row(); ?>
    <h3><?php the_sub_field( 'name' ); ?></h3>
    <p><?php the_sub_field( 'role' ); ?></p>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</code></pre>
<p><strong>User field (with prefix):</strong></p>
<pre><code><?php echo esc_html( get_field( 'company', 'user_' . $user_id ) ); ?>
</code></pre>

<h4>ACF-Compatible API</h4>
<p>If you know ACF, you already know Open Fields. The template API uses the same function names:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>get_field()</code> / <code>the_field()</code></li>
<li><code>get_fields()</code> / <code>update_field()</code> / <code>delete_field()</code></li>
<li><code>have_rows()</code> / <code>the_row()</code> / <code>get_sub_field()</code> / <code>the_sub_field()</code></li>
<li><code>get_row()</code> / <code>get_rows()</code> / <code>reset_rows()</code> / <code>get_row_index()</code></li>
<li><code>get_field_object()</code> / <code>get_sub_field_object()</code></li>
</ul>
<p>When ACF is also active, these wrappers are not loaded — no conflicts. Both plugins store data as standard WordPress meta, so they can coexist.</p>
<p>Every function also has a prefixed version (e.g. <code>cofld_get_field()</code>) that is always available regardless of other plugins.</p>
<h4>Field Types</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Basic:</strong> Text, Textarea, Number, Email, URL, Password</li>
<li><strong>Choice:</strong> Select, Checkbox, Radio, Switch</li>
<li><strong>Date & Time:</strong> Date, Time, DateTime, Color Picker</li>
<li><strong>Media:</strong> Image, File, Gallery</li>
<li><strong>Content:</strong> WYSIWYG Editor, Link</li>
<li><strong>Relational:</strong> Post Object, Taxonomy, User</li>
<li><strong>Layout:</strong> Repeater, Group</li>
</ul>
<h4>Location Rules</h4>
<p>Assign field groups to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Post types (including custom post types)</li>
<li>Page templates</li>
<li>Post status / format / category</li>
<li>Taxonomy terms</li>
<li>User roles</li>
</ul>
<h4>Source Code</h4>
<p>The admin JS and CSS are compiled from TypeScript/React source. All other files are uncompressed.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Source repo:</strong> <a href="https://github.com/novincode/openfields" rel="nofollow ugc">github.com/novincode/openfields</a></li>
<li><strong>Admin source:</strong> <a href="https://github.com/novincode/openfields/tree/main/admin/src" rel="nofollow ugc">admin/src/</a></li>
<li><strong>Build:</strong> <code>pnpm install && pnpm build</code> (Vite + TypeScript)</li>
</ul>
