Deze plugin **is niet getest met de laatste drie grote versies van WordPress**. 
Mogelijk wordt het niet meer onderhouden of ondersteund. Er kunnen ook compatibiliteitsproblemen
ontstaan wanneer het wordt gebruikt met recentere versies van WordPress.

## Beschrijving

Displays metadata in a metabox on the creation/editing pages for posts (any CPT),
terms (any taxonomy), and users.
 The metadata is shown in a human-readable format,
organized and unserialized. This metabox will only be visible to administrator users
or users with the `display_metadata_metabox` capability.

As a developer, you often need to access and review the values of metadata (or properties)
attached to posts, terms,
 users, or comments. Whether it’s for debugging or optimizing
custom functionalities, having a clear view of this data is essential for ensuring
your code interacts correctly with the underlying WordPress objects.

As a sysadmin, managing and cleaning up unnecessary meta fields is crucial for keeping
the database lean and efficient.
 By understanding which meta fields are currently
in use across posts, terms, comments, and users, you can make informed decisions
about which metadata to remove, optimizing performance and preventing clutter in
your system.

As a plugin author, it’s important to verify that your plugin is creating and managing
meta fields properly.
 The Display Meta plugin allows you to inspect whether your
plugin is adding the correct metadata and helps ensure compatibility with other 
plugins that may also modify metadata.

As a theme author, knowing which meta fields are available is key to leveraging 
them effectively in your theme designs.
 Whether you want to display custom fields
in a template or use metadata for styling purposes, having direct access to this
information will enable you to create more dynamic and responsive themes.

In all of these cases (and many more), the Display Meta plugin simplifies the process
by displaying all relevant metadata
 in a human-readable format, right within the
WordPress admin interface. With this tool, you can easily view, organize, and manage
metadata without having to dig through the database or write custom queries.
