 * Hello [@enchiridion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enchiridion/),
 * You can certainly take over the plugin. It only exists in the WordPress plugin
   Subversion repository, it’s not in a git repository yet.
 * Over the past years from time to time I have considered to update the plugin,
   but I haven’t done any serious WP (or even PHP) development in that period, so
   I never found the need or the time for it. I have considered integrating it into
   another existing developer plugin with more traction – first [Developer](https://wordpress.org/plugins/developer/),
   but that seems abandoned as well, so maybe [Debug Bar](https://wordpress.org/plugins/debug-bar/)
   would be a better choice now.
 * So depending on whether you want to continue it as an independent plugin or as
   an extension to something existing (or maybe even a hybrid – independent, but
   if it detects the Debug Bar extend it), we can decide how to go forward with 
   the code. I think you still need access to the WP plugin Subversion repository
   if you want to publish it in the plugin directory, but you could do the main 
   development via git and then via a git->svn bridge put it there.
 * Let me know what you want to do, and we will figure it out. I’ll send you a mail
   via your site so you have my contact details.
 * Regards,
 * Jan

 * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-custom-metadata-manager-custom-meta-fields-not-appearing/#post-1973590)
 * I think there is [a small omission in the plugin](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-custom-metadata-manager-plugin-not-activate-on-new-post-page)
   that causes it not to load when you create a _new_ post, only when you edit an
   existing one.
 * If that is the case for you, you can fix it by adding the `post-new.php` value
   to the `$_pages_whitelist` array, as explained in my other forum post.

 * Since it hasn’t been updated in such a long time, it uses some functions that
   are now deprecated. You can see all kinds of notices when you turn on `WP_DEBUG`.
   So yes, an update or a maintained alternative would be nice.
