Repeatable fields? Yep, we have that.

Why limit youself to a single image or textfield. With Simple Fields and repeatable field groups you can add any number of fields to a post. A function that is very useful for attachments or image slideshows. And what if you want to change the order of the added images? No problem, just use drag and drop to change order.

This awesome functionality is built into core – so no add-on is needed.

Simple PHP functions to speed up your development

I use Simple Fields myself so I know the importance of good functions to make development quick and easy.

To get the value of a field you only need to use one simple function. And to get the values of several fields – you also only need one function. Believe me when I say It’s pretty easy to work with fields with this plugin.

For more info and examples please check out the documentation.

Free and open source

Simple Fields is free and open source and you can even follow the development over at our GitHub page.

Extend any post type

Designed to work with posts, pages and custom post types. No matter what field type you use, that field type can be extended with custom field types from Simple Fields.

Drag and drop

Want to shange to change order of your images, files, or any other type or field? Simple: just drag and drop to instantly change the order.

Add multiple field groups

You can add any combination of field groups to a post. This way you only need to specify the fields once and then re-use them as many times as you want to. Different post types with different field groups is not a problem.

Multiple field groups makes Simple Fields a pretty advanced custom fields solution.

Unit testing to minimize risk of errors

A lot of the functionality in Simple Fields is tested using unit testing. Test cases exists for all the functions that involve getting field values from your posts. This way the risk of anything breaking on a site after upgrade in minimized.
