 * Hi !
 * Some of my custom post type, created by a plugin or by meslf, have custom fields,
   once again created by the plugin, by a plugin dedicated to custom field, or by
   myself.
 * It would be nice if your plugin would be able to detect that fields :
    Because
   these are the fields that change from one post to another, it is the fields who
   actually needs the more infos 🙂
 * Thanks for listening !

 * X-Raym,
 * Due to the many ways custom fields are added by plugins, this will prove to be
   a challenge to code. I am looking to introduce such a feature later in this plugin’s
   development cycle, but it will probably be a paid solution. Which plugin do you
   currently use, so I may begin to look at how to implement this?
 * Thanks,
    -D

 * Mostly Advanced Custom Fields for creating new fields, and Easy Digital Downloads(
   for plugin that create custom post type with fields).
    Thank you for your consideration,
   I understand this can be difficult, as there is so many ways to create these 
   fields.
