Super helpful tool!

It's great for letting me see hidden metadata without having to open up the database. Plus, it's great for allowing non-technical users to see the information without the risk of sending them to the database.

Very useful plugin

Useful and Very Clean Post Meta Viewer Plugin

By Hesham Zebida (hishaman) on November 27, 2021

I've started recently to use this plugin to discover post meta values, I must say it's cleaner than other plugins I've used before. Thanks for the latest update release 2.0.0, the ability to have post meta updated without having to load the page is pretty awesome. I use the plugin almost everyday. I recommend it to anyone who wants to see what's in post meta. Keep it up!

Awesome! Now I can see all the fields attached to my posts!

By undergroundnetwork on September 3, 2016

Really helps me see what my theme and all the random plugins I have are attaching to my posts.
