8 New Field Types with the PTB Extra Fields Addon
Sometimes adding an extra something can transform any post from dull & boring, to fun and exciting! Today, we bring this extra something to your custom post types. For the first-time ever, we're launching a Post Type Builder addon: Extra Fields! This addon works hand-in-hand with the Post Type Builder, allowing you to create 8 new field types on your custom posts. Simply install and activate this addon, and start creating posts with 8 new modules on your Meta Box builder. Here's what this addon comes with:
- Video = Insert an unlimited number of Youtube/Vimeo/MP4 videos, anywhere on your custom post type. Display it either on a 2 or 3 grid column.
- Rating = Choose from over 320+ icons, and use any one of them to rate your products, movies, or any post you want. You can set it to have only admin users, or public visitors to rate your post.
- Map = Showcase any location in a map, with a pointer and text tooltip, anywhere on your post.
- Date = Select the date that will appear on your post, with a date & time calendar picker.
- Slider = Showcase a slider image/video that will allow you to adjust the speed, and transition style.
- Gallery = Display your images in grid, showcase, or lightbox format.
- Progress Bar = Highlight skills or ongoing projects with percentages, custom labels, and animated progress bars.
- Icon = Choose from over 320+ icons, and insert a link on each icon to redirect users when they click on the icon.
Make your posts extra fun and extra awesome, with the new Extra fields addon!
See how it works on our PTB Extra Field addon demo page!

Sure :) here is the link: http://www.savvytheme.com/deals/
We have also written one small review sometime back. You may check that too :)

Just one thing, as we know PTB is all in one solution for creating custom post types, be it a Movie Review or Property Listing or any other content type like Game Listing/Review. I was just wondering how good it would be if we have a support for structure data to tell search engines what exactly the content is all about?
This would allow search engines to index the content better, present it more prominently in search results.
