What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A WordPress plugin/library for easily creating admin metaboxes with custom fields. It is no longer supported or developed; all future work continues in its successor, CMB2.

Use cases

  • add custom fields to WordPress posts and pages
  • create metaboxes in the WordPress admin
  • build custom admin forms for a WordPress theme or plugin
  • manage repeatable custom field groups in WordPress
  • extend WordPress content types with extra metadata

When to choose

  • maintaining a legacy WordPress project already built on this library
  • referencing historical code that depends on CMB v1

When to avoid

  • starting any new WordPress project (use CMB2 instead)
  • you need support, updates, or security fixes
  • you want modern WordPress custom field tooling like ACF or CMB2
