About Custom Fields

What are custom fields? Additional metadata stored with your posts (created by plugins like ACF, CMB2, or manually).
Why include them? Custom fields can contain important searchable information like event dates, locations, product details, etc.
Performance tip: Only select fields that contain meaningful text content relevant to search.
After saving: Go to the "Generate Embeddings" tab to regenerate embeddings with the new fields.

Example Use Cases

Post Type	Custom Field	Why Include It
Events	event_location, event_description	Users can search by location or event details
Recipes	ingredients, cooking_time, difficulty	Find recipes by ingredients or cooking requirements
Team Members	job_title, department, expertise	Search staff by role, department, or skills
Properties	bedrooms, location, price, amenities	Search listings by specific property features

Important Notes

Only custom fields that are currently in use will appear in the lists above.
Fields starting with underscore (_) are typically internal meta fields and are excluded.
If you don't see a custom field you expect, make sure it's being used by at least one published post.
Changes only apply to newly generated or regenerated embeddings.
