Admin Columns PRO

Description

Admin Columns lets you customize and organize the columns displayed in the WordPress admin list tables for posts, pages, users, comments and media.

Instead of the limited default list table, you get to display the information you actually need – like custom fields, featured images, taxonomies, file data and more.

Trusted by 100,000+ WordPress sites worldwide.

With a simple drag-and-drop interface you can:

• Add any column to posts, pages, users, media and comments
• Reorder and resize columns to match your workflow
• Choose from 200+ column types including custom fields, taxonomies and file data
• Display rich metadata such as images, dates, colors and relational fields
• Create clean overviews for even the most complex websites

It works for any site from simple blogs to large WooCommerce stores.

Why Admin Columns?

Default WordPress list tables are limited. They often show only the title, author and date.

Admin Columns turns them into useful management screens that show you what matters.

Examples:

• See featured images, custom fields and taxonomies directly in the post list table
• Display media file size, dimensions or EXIF data
• View user metadata and roles in the users screen
• Keep track of large content libraries

• Reviewing SEO metadata from Yoast
• Organizing custom post types with the right columns
