Meta Box Builder

Creating custom fields for WordPress content can involve writing and maintaining code. Meta Box Builder gives you a visual way to arrange fields into meta boxes, with over 40 field types available. It supports built-in Meta Box fields and parameters, so you can configure content data without manually writing each field definition.

Set where meta boxes appear and control their display with location, priority, context, and conditional logic options. The plugin also supports Meta Box extensions for groups, settings pages, custom post types, taxonomies, and Gutenberg blocks. Export configurations or generate PHP code for use in themes and plugins, making it useful for site building and development workflows.
