Meta Box Admin Columns 1.8.0

Meta Box Admin Columns is a WordPress plugin extension for the Meta Box plugin that helps you surface custom field values directly inside the WordPress admin lists. Instead of opening each post, term, or user record to check metadata, you can view relevant fields at a glance.

It lets you configure which Meta Box fields appear as columns in posts, terms, and users screens. You can set column order and titles, and enable sortable and searchable columns to speed up daily workflows for site editors and developers.

Main Features

• Custom field columns — Display Meta Box fields in WordPress admin lists for posts, terms, and users.
• Column position control — Place your custom columns where they fit your editorial workflow.
• Custom column titles — Rename columns to match the data meaning your team understands.
• Sortable columns — Sort list views by selected custom field values.
• Searchable columns — Filter list views using values from configured custom fields.
• Works with Meta Box — Designed specifically to extend the Meta Box plugin’s field system.
• Targeted admin areas — Adds columns to the standard WordPress lists where managing content happens.
• Clear metadata visibility — Reduces repeated editing cycles by showing key values in list form.
