 * Hi, I want to add just one field to post types.
    I added “book title” field, 
   but the content does not show up on my posts. When I created the field, and added
   a book title to the field, the book title is not present in the post. The only
   thing I can view are the categories, links, post title, and post content. The
   extra field I added does not show up.

 * Content never automatically shows on the display of posts because the theme hasn’t
   been modified to display additional content to the front-end.
 * Does the field for input show up in the back-end admin?
 * Watch this video on Grow Beyond Posts and Pages for the easiest way to custom
   content to your theme display without any code at all. It’s also a good overview
   of Pods and Content:
