WordPress Custom Fields

WordPress custom field section:

• Your website may not require this but custom fields can come in handy for different banners, or selected images on your pages.

If we are designing a website we will advise the client on the custom fields section specially set up for their site:

Heres an example:

 

You may have a website that has a custom banner set with an image on at the top of each page, or you may have a banner that has different text quotes on for example.

• Go to your page and you will see the custom field tab at the bottom of the editor.

• select name:  Here you will select the custom field name, this may be ‘banner’, ‘image’, ‘quote’  (basically anything that has been set up)

• Next to it will be the value:  in the attached example above there is a image url.

• So if you wanted a new banner image  you would simply upload your image in the media section, and copy the url and paste it here in the value box. Or if  the custom field was set up for text, you would write in your required text into the value box.

• Once the value is written in this will be saved and you can see this in action on your website.
