Joomla's Core Custom Fields

Since version 3.7, Joomla has included the Custom Fields feature by default.

Do you want to add extra information to an article, category, user, or contact? With custom fields, you can easily and clearly display this on your website. Installed third-party extensions can also make use of Custom Fields. Additionally, there are third-party Custom Field plugins available that you can install to add new fields.

Joomla offers 16 different types of custom fields. As an administrator, you can create these fields for articles, categories, users, and contacts. When editing an article, the fields appear in a separate tab, where you can enter the desired data.

Peter Martin demonstrates which custom fields are available by default in Joomla and how you can use them.
