Advanced custom fields

In the WordPress world, if you want to go beyond a title and body, you install Advanced Custom Fields (ACF Pro — $49/year per site) or Meta Box. They became ubiquitous because WP itself offers almost nothing here. Contensio builds the same thing into the core — no license, no plugin.

The field palette

Attach fields to any content type

A field belongs to a content type. Each field knows whether it's translatable, required, searchable, and what validation rules apply. Change the schema later and existing content just keeps its old data — nothing is silently destroyed.

Example: a Product type

Product
  ├── sku             (Text, required, not translatable)
  ├── price           (Number, required, not translatable)
  ├── gallery         (Repeater of Media)
  ├── short_desc      (Text, translatable)
  ├── specifications  (Repeater of {label, value})
  └── related_products (Relationship → Product, multi)

Querying fields from your theme

In Blade (your theme templates):

<h1>{{ $content->title }}</h1>
<p class="price">{{ $content->field('price') }} €</p>

@foreach($content->field('gallery') as $image)
  <img src="{{ $image->url }}" alt="">
@endforeach
