How to customize Wordpress edit post page - wordpress

I want to add some extra form fields to an existing page in Wordpress.
This page is where you are redirected whenever you edit a post or page.
My problem is I don't know where to find this file or what its called.
I need to know what file i need to edit in order to be able to add the new inputs.
this page would only be seen if you are an administrator and logged in and in dashboard.
I'm using wordpress edge shuffle theme.

The easiest way to solve this is to use Advanced Custom Fields. ACF allows you to specify custom fields that appear on certain edit pages in the admin. You'll then have custom data to use on your frontend templates.

For me, as I was just trying to figure out how to edit my posts page
While logged on to my admin account to edit, I went to my actual page and the top admin bar had an option of "customize" and that took me where I needed to go to add some css

Is it possible to stop a user from editing a certain part of the Elementor Pro Layout?

Asking what the title says. I made a plugin where the Title, Date and Link is automatically added on a new Elementor Page. I only want one section of the page to be edited by a user with no admin privileges, is it possible?
If you look at the screenshot, the content containing "Researchers and Industrial Leaders..." is the only one I need to be able to get edited.
If you're familiar with ACF or JetEngine you could dynamically connect that section to an editable section in the dashboard... that way your user stays out of Elementor but can edit sections on the site.
That's how I do it.

In your WordPress admin,
go to Pages » Add New to create a new page Like Blog
go to Settings » Reading

Create own Wordpress Front End on specific Page

i'm writing my first Plugin for Wordpress. A booking calendar. The Admin and Setting Page is already working. The Admin has the possibility to create, edit and delete bookings. I'm struggling with the Front End.
How do i call my "Create a Booking" Form for the User?
Do i need do create a separate Page for that or is it possible for the Admin to call my "Create a Booking" Form in every Page?
There are many ways... The simplest would be to put your form directly into the content of a page or post. In that case, anyone could access the form. If you need to dynamically determine how the form is displayed, you'll want to put it into a shortcode, or use a Wordress page-template in your theme [confusing, because this is totally different from a page!]. Use shortcodes to port your project to any theme, use page templates to lock your functionality into one specific theme. To alter every page, you would put your functionality in a plugin, or in your theme's functions.php file.

Custom page in Wordpress plugin

I am creating simple plugin, and I prepared few pages: add.php, edit.php, delete.php and list.php. I've used add_menu_page and add_submenu_page - so I understand why they are visible in admin menu. How to create page (or custom URL with parameter) without putting this into menu? I'd like to add link to edit page and delete url (code executed by plugin) on listing page - something like in posts listing page but can't find function to achieve this.
Here are two possible solutions for this questions:
How do you add a WordPress admin page without adding it to the menu?
Personally i havent tried it but it like the one where you remove the item from the menu after you set things up like normal.
There is also a great plugin called the WP Router that can help you setup totally unique urls with the callback you desire.
