Joomla's Core Custom Fields [EN]

Since Joomla 3.7, Joomla CMS features Custom Fields, which allow you to easily add extra information to articles, categories, users or contacts. These fields appear in a separate tab during editing and allow you to present content more flexibly and conveniently. Joomla includes 16 different field types by default and supports extensions via third-party plugins. In this session, Peter demonstrates the power of Custom Fields, and why you need to install fewer extensions these days if you use Custom Fields in a smart way.
