MB Admin Columns

Custom fields hold the details that matter most about your content, such as an author, a publisher or a category. In the default admin lists, you have to open each entry to see them. MB Admin Columns solves this by adding columns to the list tables, so the values sit next to the titles and you can scan many entries at once.

You choose which fields appear, rename the column titles and set where each column goes. Columns can be sorted or searched. Post meta works out of the box, and term and user meta work with the matching Meta Box extensions. It suits custom post types such as Books, and it also applies to WooCommerce product tables, which now work with WooCommerce HPOS.

Features

• Custom fields in list tables: Show custom field values in the admin tables for posts, terms and users, so important metadata is visible without opening each entry.
• Column position and titles: Rename any column and place it before or after existing columns, or replace one, so the table follows the way you work.
• Sortable and searchable columns: Turn on sorting or searching for a column, which lets you find entries by the content of their custom fields.
• All standard field types: Works with the standard custom field types, so the data formats you already use in Meta Box can appear in columns.
• Custom HTML around content: Add your own HTML before and after the content of a column to format values or draw attention to them.
• Filter by custom taxonomies: Filter posts by custom taxonomies directly in the admin list, which helps when you manage a large or complex set of content.
• Meta Box extension support: Compatible with MB Term Meta, MB User Meta and MB Custom Table, so term, user and custom table data can be shown as well.
• Matches the WordPress admin: Columns are styled automatically to fit the WordPress interface, so the dashboard keeps a consistent look.
