Using custom fields to enter additional information in nodes

Set up custom fields on nodes so that administrators can enter information in custom fields, or receive information from users.

Set custom fields with information that the administrator can enter any setting value or collect from the User Authentication and Acceptance page.

Custom fields allow administrators to manage node information by classifying it in detail through a variety of information set up/entered.
