Hello Toolset, can you please give me an idea of why I can't see custom fields when editing posts in the backend?

Hello,

I assume we are talking about WordPress built-in "Custom Fields" metabox, and you are using block editor.

If it is, you can try these:
Edit a post, in the top-right, click the option button-> Options, enable option "Custom Fields", see screenshot: options.JPG

Hi Luo

Sorry, I'm actually talking about my Types fields. Here's an example (problem applies across a few new Post Types I have created. Screenshot shows no fields, only a section for connecting another post type.
