1. Click menu > Admin > Content Types.
2. Under Content Type Modifications, click New.
   

   

3. In the Name field, enter a name for this modification.
4. From the Types list, select the content types to which you want to add fields.
5. Under Additional Items, click add_circle_outline, and select one of the field types.
6. Complete the form for the selected field type.
7. Repeat steps 5–6 to add additional fields.
8. Rearrange the fields by dragging them into the order you want them to appear in the content edit form.
9. Click Save.

Referring to the previous illustrations, editors starting a new article or blog post content types see a Preparation Time field in the content edit form.
