(Or load blueprint.json from the plugin zip in the Playground Builder.)

Use the visual builder to add fields, set location rules, and configure presentation. Values are stored as post meta and can be rendered in themes with helpers such as massoftind_fb_get() and massoftind_fb_have_rows().

What you can build

Text, number, email, URL, date, time, color, and range fields
Media: image, gallery, file, YouTube video
Rich content: WYSIWYG, code editor, shortcode
Choices: select, checkbox, radio, toggle, star rating
Relations: post object, relationship, taxonomy, user
Layout: repeater, group, accordion, tabs

Useful features

Drag-and-drop field builder with search and duplication
Location rules (post type, template, taxonomy, and more)
Conditional logic (show/hide fields)
Import and export field groups as JSON
Developer panel with copy-ready template examples
Optional authenticated REST API for field groups and values
Built-in documentation in wp-admin
qTranslate-X / qTranslate-XT: Language Switching Buttons on text fields; front-end helpers return the active language

Template helpers

Use functions such as massoftind_fb_get(), massoftind_fb_field(), massoftind_fb_have_rows(), massoftind_fb_image(), and massoftind_fb_the_gallery() in theme templates. See the in-plugin documentation for full examples.

Third-party services

When a YouTube field is used, the admin and front end may load thumbnails or embeds from YouTube (googlevideo.com / i.ytimg.com). Those requests go to Google/YouTube only when such media is configured. Review YouTube Terms of Service if you publish that content.

SVG file uploads are disabled by default. Sites that need SVG media can enable them with the massoftind_fb_allow_svg_uploads filter.

Optional integration

Works alongside Dynamic Content Builder for front-end listings driven by custom fields. Compatible with qTranslate-X / qTranslate-XT for multilingual field values. No other plugins are required.

FAQ

Do I need another custom fields plugin?: No. Massoftind Field Builder is a standalone field builder with its own metabox UI, repeaters, and template helpers.
Can I try it before installing?: Yes. Open the WordPress Playground live demo.
Where are field values stored?: As prefixed post meta on the content object. Field-group definitions are stored as an internal custom post type.
Can I move field groups between sites?: Yes. Use Tools Export and Import to transfer JSON field-group definitions.
Is there a REST API?: Yes, optional. Enable it under Field Builders Settings. Endpoints require authenticated users with appropriate capabilities.
Does this phone home?: No. The plugin does not send your site data to Massoftind.
Does it work with qTranslate-X?: Yes. With qTranslate-X or qTranslate-XT active, text-like fields (text, textarea, WYSIWYG, email, URL, shortcode, code editor, link title) use Language Switching Buttons in the editor. Template helpers such as massoftind_fb_get() return the value for the current language on the front end. Values are stored with qTranslate [:lang] tags.

I rarely write reviews, but this plugin truly deserves one. Massoftind Field Builder is an exceptionally well-designed plugin that makes creating and managing custom fields incredibly simple. The interface is clean, intuitive, and easy to navigate, allowing both beginners and experienced developers to build complex field structures without any unnecessary hassle. What impressed me the most is how lightweight and responsive the plugin feels. It integrates smoothly with WordPress, performs reliably, and doesn’t add unnecessary bloat to the website. Every feature is thoughtfully implemented, making it clear that the developers focused on usability, performance, and real-world development needs. The documentation and setup process are straightforward, so getting started takes only a few minutes. Whether you’re building a simple website or a complex project with custom content, this plugin significantly speeds up development and keeps everything well organized. I’ve tested many field builder plugins over the years, and this one stands out for its simplicity, stability, and ease of use. It’s refreshing to find a plugin that does exactly what it promises while maintaining excellent performance. A big thank you to the developers for creating such a valuable tool and for contributing to the WordPress community. I look forward to future updates and new features. Highly recommended to anyone who wants a reliable, efficient, and user-friendly field builder for WordPress. Keep up the fantastic work!

Changelog

1.3.59

Promo: WordPress Playground blueprint for one-click live demo.
Admin: dashboard onboarding checklist (first field group in minutes).
Admin: optional dismissible review nudge after a field group exists.

1.3.58

Fix: qTranslate-X compatibility — read raw Field Builder meta then translate strings so repeater have_rows()/sub_field() work on the front end.

1.3.57

Fix: lock main page ID before get_header so repeater helpers read the correct post meta.
Fix: empty key-based meta arrays no longer block fallback to name-based stored values.

1.3.56

Fix: template helpers prefer the queried page ID on singular views so values still load after get_header() / secondary loops.

1.3.55

Fix: have_rows() on Group fields no longer drops text sub-fields (badge/heading empty while loop still ran).

1.3.54

Fix: nested Sub Fields drag-and-drop blocked by sortable cancel matching parent inline config panels.

1.3.53

UI: remove help “i” icons next to Label / Name and other setting labels.

1.3.52

Fix: builder tooltips clipped by overflow — Delete/Drag tips now show.
Fix: drag-reorder for deeply nested Sub Fields (Repeater Group Repeater fields).

1.3.51

Fix: text domain aligned to plugin slug massoftind-field-builder.
Security: sanitize posted field trees and AJAX JSON payloads before use.
Fix: remove standalone wp_enqueue_script(wplink); load via script dependencies (core handle).

1.3.50

Fix: SVG image/gallery admin preview blank after save (inlined SVG was stripped by wp_kses_post; use img preview instead).

1.3.49

Fix: harden sanitize for checkbox, image, file, gallery, relationship, range, video, and YouTube against array POST / “Array” corruption.
Fix: re-sync qTranslate hooks after AJAX-added repeater, accordion, and tabs rows.

1.3.48

Fix: repeater delete + qTranslate — rebind hidden language field names after reindex so removed rows stay removed.
Fix: scalar fields no longer save PHP “(string) array” as the literal text “Array”.
Fix: drop empty/corrupt repeater rows (junk nested rows created by stale multilingual POST data).

1.3.47

Plugin Check: echo SVG/video HTML via wp_kses() directly (custom kses wrappers are not recognized by PHPCS).

1.3.46

Security: tighten REST permission callbacks (manage_options for field groups; edit_post for per-post field values).
I18n: text domain aligned to WordPress.org slug massoftind-field-builder.
Security: late-escape admin/field output (attributes, SVG, shortcodes, media previews) via esc_attr / wp_kses / wp_kses_post.
Prefixing: remove generic DFB_* global constants; keep massoftind_fb / MASSOFTIND_FB prefixes.

1.3.45

Fix: when two field groups use the same field name, helpers pick the field that has stored values (not the empty duplicate).

1.3.44

Native qTranslate-X / qTranslate-XT support: admin Language Switching Buttons and front-end language decode for template helpers.

1.3.43

Rebranded to Massoftind Field Builder (slug, text domain, namespace, prefixes).
Removed non-GPL Fancybox; gallery lightbox is plugin GPL JS. Masonry uses WordPress core only.
Assets load via wp_enqueue_* / wp_add_inline_*; no inline style/script tags in templates.
WordPress.org submission polish: remove trademark tag; defer plugin details to the official directory API.

1.3.42

Plugin Check: replace var_export in developer code generator; document intentional meta_key ordering query.

1.3.41

Plugin Check fixes: translators comments, local asset loading (no CDN), wp_enqueue_style for details modal.

1.3.40

WordPress.org packaging: readme.txt, license.txt, Plugin Check cleanup, author/branding alignment.

1.3.39

Developer Panel: Full Template Example for Repeaters/Groups includes Conditional Logic as PHP if checks.

1.3.38

Fixed Conditional Logic dropdown changes triggering a full panel rebuild on autosave.

1.3.37

Date field: Display Format and Return Format settings; massoftind_fb_date() / massoftind_fb_the_date() helpers.
