    hi,

    Honestly I don’t know.

    ACF does things very differently, and I don’t think you can use ACF fields easily in Frontier Post

    sorry

    Can i add a text field for a known meta key? and only for a specific post type?
    That will do.
    Thanks in advance

    sorry, pressed save again,

    have you read this one: http://wpfrontier.com/frontier-post-custom-fields/

    If you use the article above as an example, you can make it work for a specific post type by using an if statement

    as you can see, the current post can be referred as $thispost in the form, so you can

    if ($thispost->post_type == "tips")
      {
      your code.....
      }

    and in the save action you have 3 inputs:
    $tmp_post (the post, so: $tmp_post->post_type == “tips”)
    $tmp_task_new (equals true if it is a new post)
    $input_values (same as $_POST)

    it will require php and html skills to work with custom fields.

    I think i’m quitting about it. If you can make the custom field easier or auto collected, i’ll be thankful 🙂

    Hi, I understand.

    Custom Fields are difficult to work with, as they are unstructured.

    I have no plans of changing the way Custom Fields are supported in Frontier Post, all though I know it isn’t easy – I simply do not have the bandwith to do it

    Sorry

    i mean someway to make a custom field with a meta key which will added by the user.
    i had a plugin that did that, unfortunately that’s not compatible with my theme. If you give me your email, i can send you that. maybe that’ll help you to make this plugin complete
