First I created a post type called 'kopers'.
Then I created custom post fields called 'groep voor kopers'.
Now I want to display ONLY these custom post fields as a column in the post type listing 'kopers' in WordPress admin.
I DON'T want other post type listings with custom post fields being displayed in WordPress admin.

Therefor I checked all the fields that should be shown on the post type listing 'kopers' as a column and saved.
However when I visit the post type listing 'kopers' WordPress admin also other post type listings with custom post fields are being displayed (i.e. 'groep voor voorkeuren', 'groep voor vakexperts', and so on) which I don't want.

Please help us out here on what to do, step-by-step. Use a screen recording or snapshots.

Hi Matthias,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Just to confirm the issue here, your custom field group is showing up on all your post types correct?

If so then please follow the instructions below:
1. Go to Toolset -> Custom Fields
2. Edit your custom field group.
3. Under Settings for XYZ click edit under the 'appears on' section.
4. Select the custom post type you want to allow this field group to appear on. See Screenshot. then hit apply.
5. Save your custom field group.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
