Free fields. Pro interactive workflows.
Free includes all 26 field types, repeaters, field creation and storage, WordPress-admin editing, basic display, named blocks, normal WordPress search and developer APIs. Pro supplies the visual directory/listing builder, configurable listing layouts and queries, reader search and frontend edit/create forms.
Deactivating Pro keeps definitions and stored values. Existing saved listings continue rendering, and WordPress-admin editing remains Free. Creating or changing listing definitions and supplied frontend workflows requires activated Pro. Public Pro submissions enter a private review queue; they do not grant anonymous editing.

Installation and upgrade instructions
Back up your site and test the update on staging. Finish or pause active imports, deployments, bulk jobs and background requests before replacing files. Update Free from WordPress.org without uninstalling. If a Pro update is available in your account, replace that add-on in a separate request after Free. Free and Pro have separate version numbers. Check your content and Pro workflows before resuming paused work.
CustomFields Pro 1.1.2
Pro 1.1.2 adds the visual directory/listing builder, configurable listing layouts and queries, authenticated frontend edit/create forms and visitor-operated listing search, alongside reviewed CSV updates, maintenance checks, submission reviews, deployments, transfers and bulk editing. Pro remains in private beta; paid checkout is available. Get the Pro ZIP from your eligible purchase account, then activate it in CustomFields → Licence & updates before using its tools.
Requirements
