## Description

With Ultimate Fields you can easily create fields in the admin. Those fields can
be displayed when you are editing a post or page (any post type actually) or in 
an options page (ex. Theme Options) anywhere in the admin.

Please visit [https://www.ultimate-fields.com/](https://www.ultimate-fields.com/)
for more details.

#### Features

 * Easy to use.
 * Various field types (listed below)
 * Support for Post Type and Options Page as locations for fields. All locations
   have advanced placement rules, in order to only show them when needed.
 * WYSIWYG Field Creation
 * Focused on developers: A clean object-oriented API allows you to cleanly define
   all of your fields through code.
 * Perfected tabs, alignment and styles
 * Import, Export and in-theme JSON Synchronization
 * JavaScript-based interface
 * Unlimited field nesting with the Repeater and Complex fields
 * Conditional Logic between fields in the same container (and ones on upper levels)
 * REST API Support
 * Admin Columns
 * Integration with WordPress SEO for automatic field content ratings
 * Clean styles: Ultimate Fields follows WordPress’ built in styles as much as possible
   and provides a seamless experience. It’s even fully responsive.
 * Full-featured interface for data loading

#### Fields

 * Text
 * Textarea
 * WYSIWYG Editor
 * Password
 * Number
 * Checkbox
 * Select
 * Multiselect
 * Image-Select (a visual select)
 * File
 * Image
 * WP Object (for selection of an object among posts, terms and users)
 * WP Objects (for multiple objects)
 * Link
 * Section
 * Tab
 * Complex
 * Repeater

#### Repeaters

Repeaters can be used to add repeatable groups of fields. You can combine a text
and a file field into a Slide group and allow the user to add as many slides as 
he needs. The value is saved in a single field!

Additionally you can add different types of groups into a single repeater. This 
way the user could add both Video Slides and Image Slides through the same place.

#### Embedding in themes and plugins

Ultimate Fields has all the necessary logic built in. Just place it wherever you
need and include ultimate-fields.php

It really is a jewel, do not hesitate to buy the PRO version !!! But also the version
that is not “PRO” is very complete and perfect for working. 5 Starts!

### 󠀁[New Updates Make UF The Best WP Framework Available](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-framework-available-guaranteed/)󠁿

 [Enterprise Branding](https://profiles.wordpress.org/enterprisebranding/) October
27, 2018

Ultimate Fields is hands down the most robust framework for WordPress available.
Besides having ALL the fields a developer could want and in a professional, savvy,
fresh way, it has multiple ways of code friendliness. Meaning you can write fields
statically, in objects, or in a simple custom array function. It obviously also 
has the WordPress admin user interface for those developers who are not so code 
experienced but want to get started to a professional result immediately. I have
the Pro version. I only bought the pro version as well. The locations for the Pro
version are amazing, from all backend areas a developer would desire, even to creating
frontend forms! I would say this is the first Framework that does not really leave
anything to be desired. When I say desire, I mean feeling like something it truly
missing that makes a dev a bit sad on the inside when trying to create something.
While other suggestion and features have been and can be requested to Ultimate Fields,
they are not depressing, despairing requests. UF literally is a kid’s dream playhouse,
especially in comparison to other frameworks available. I didn’t hesitate to purchase
the Pro version. The documentation is GREAT and the support is GREAT!!! The Framework
is LIGHT and SMART in terms of backend loading and database option calls. The only
real thing I think could be different or added is that the shortcode builder could
come at a different angle. It loads in the Add Media screen, which is nice, and 
not that I use shortcodes much because of Content Builders like Elementor, Beaver
Builder, or Oxygen 2, but I think it might get crowded or unsavvy to have a lot 
of shortcodes show in the add media dialog popup window to insert them in the content.
That’s it!!! ULTIMATE FIELDS IS AWESOME!!!

## Changelog

#### 3.0.2 Bugfix Release with a couple of small features

[FIX] Limiting preview image sizes to 100% to ensure that if `thumbnail` is not 
available as an image size, images are not overflowing.
 [FIX] Enqueueing overlays
properly for files: The File fields were expecting the Overlay JS class to be available,
but it was not enqueued. [FIX] Values are now properly saved and loaded for WYSIWYG
editors, including empty paragraphs and etc. [FIX] Improved handling of repeater
values in the REST API: The iterator format of the repeater field was not playing
nicely with the REST API. [UPDATE] Minor adjustments of the UI and complex fields
in order to allow https://github.com/RadoslavGeorgiev/ultimate-fields-layout-control
to work. [FIX] Messages are not saving values anymore. [FIX][W2422] Conditional 
logic is not used if unchecked [FIX][W2439] Complex fields can now handle missing
containers. [FEATURE][W2440] Adding a target_control setting to the link field [

Fixes:

 * A sanitization bug, prevented the options datastore from saving non-scalar values
 * Post-based rules for the `Post_Type` location, both in the UI and in core

   not the case anymore
 * To improve compatability with “Front-end Editor”, revision fields are only provided
   for existing posts

sadly, it is no longer available. You can read more about that in https://rageorgiev.
com/blog/2017/06/28/ultimate-fields-multilingual-support-will-removed/

#### 1.2

 * Updated visual styles

 * Fixed JavaScript errors

#### 1.1

 * The MIME type of screenshots is changed in order to allow them to be viewable
   in the browser without downloading.
 * The Richtext field has been updated to be compatible with the latest version 
   of WordPress, 4.4.2 . A wrong link to mac.int is also fixed.
 * The “Select Term” field will not trigger a fatal error when a taxonomy is no 
   longer existing.
 * Modified the filters for the textarea and richtext filter output.
 * Tabs are no longer broken.
 * The repeater field is working well.

#### 1.0.3

 * Adding an HTML field that is only available through code.

   and default values will work.

   a datastore.
 * UF_Postmeta is not calling save when a new post is being created (the draft).
 * Made a few minor changes to allow Ultimate Post Types to work properly.

#### 1.0.2

 * PHP: Fixed bugs with the import functionality, which prevent containers from 
   being registered.

   values, like images and etc. will be processed before the function returns them.

#### 1.0.1

   paragraphs.
 * PHP: The Richtext Field’s setting for rows is actually working.

 * PHP: UF_Field_Set will be saved even without checked values.
 * JS & CSS: Validation is a bit better – it highlights the field and tab of the
   error.
 * JS: New repeater elements can be toggled by using the arrow.

 * Translations: German translation added (Big Thanks to [sixtyseven](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sixtyseven/)!)
 * Translations: Several string fixes
