 * Hi, is it possible to add custom fields in the shortcode. A sample shortcode 
   will be appreciated.

 * If you expanded your quest a little it might make it easier to answer. I.E. By
   Custom Fields do you mean field setting that are not in the instructions but 
   still affect the display? Maybe like Title Color?

 * Hi,
 * I think he means this : [https://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields](https://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields)
 * I’m also very interested in displaying these custom fields which contain important
   informations.

 * Hi,
 * I tried adding this in posts-for-page.php (line 276) :
 *     ```
       $post_meta = get_post_meta(get_the_ID(),'my_custom_field', true);
       $output .= "<p class="meta">" . $post_meta . "</p>";
       ```
   
 * But I got this error message :
 * > Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘meta’ (T_STRING) in […]/plugins/posts-
   > for-page/posts-for-page.php on line 277
