 * The plugin description suggests that I can add fields to any content type including
   the native wordpress posts themselves but I can’t figure out how to do that. 
   I have a website with over a hundred posts and I need to be able to add the same
   custom fields to all of them. Creating a new custom post type for this and then
   copying all these blog posts to the custom post type is too much work. How do
   I add a standard custom field to the native wordpress post type?

 * When you create new post type click “Add custom fields to Posts” link in “One-
   Click Quick Actions”

 * Hi [@sunspots](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sunspots/)
 * In the “add new Pod” page you have the option to “Extend existing”. Choose this
   one and you can select existing WP objects to extend.
 * Cheers, Jory

 * Thank you Jory! (@keraweb) That worked! I couldn’t remember where I’d seen it.
