I finally found how to do :
Basically you need two steps to add a Custom Field to a Custom Post Type:
Create a metabox which holds your Custom Field
Save your Custom Field to the database
These steps are globally described here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-it-possible-to-add-an-extra-field-to-a-custom-post-type

I'm new to WordPress and doesn't much about it. I am making property listing plugin for WordPress I want to add Price field/(numeric type)
.I don't want to use plugin and custom fields. I want the field as shown
You can use a metabox to add a new box to the Admin Frontend. If its done, you need a filter to handle the inputs value for the backend. For more detailed helped, you need to provide more informations about your plugin.
See: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_meta_box/
I was following this blog post https://www.themelocation.com/how-to-add-custom-fields-to-user-registration-form-in-woocommerce/ to learn about creating custom user fields in Woo (for registration).
The post above worked, and I was able to see new fields during registration, but I had two questions:
How can I get these fields to appear when I'm editing a user in wp-admin? I didn't notice them rendering on the edit user page.
Right now Woo (by default) lets you just register with an e-mail. I wanted to also use a first name and last name (my custom fields), but this is already a field on the users in WordPress, so I don't want to duplicate fields. Is there a way to somehow pull in/use/associate an existing field (such as name) during the Woo registration?
Thanks so much for any help/guidance you all can give me.
1 You can use this plugin for display your custom fields in the admin view.
2 In your template HTML file, find the form, and use the default id & name tag : "Firstname" / "Lastname" ...ext

The easiest way is to install Advanced Custom fields plugin (ACF) https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/
Here you can add custom fields and select on what pages, posts, post types they will be shown.
i am building a wordpress website for a client. i need to build 1 template type of page with a list of fields that the client can fill in to populate the page. so lets say i build a template page called Person Template. On it i have an empty picture placeholder on the left and an empty Name Field below that. On the right i have an empty "persons phone number" and "Persons email" field.
what i need to create somehow is a system that the client can enter these 4 items into wp-admin somewhere and save that as a new Person. Then they can repeat and save another Person until they have created say 100 Person pages.
How do I do this? I tried building a Custom Post Type called Person CPT. I have built a Page called Person Template. I have built some "Person CPT" posts and put them on a page but i dont know how to create the Entry Fields page for my client to use.
You're correct that you'll need to use a custom post type. To add the fields you have two options:
Add the fields using add_meta_box(). You'll then need to save this data as post meta. Then in your single-person.php template you would retrieve the meta using get_post_meta(). It's a tad cumbersome, as you need to write the markup for the meta box, hook it into an action to add it to the admin page, and verify the content before it's saved. Here's an article that walks you through it
Alternatively get yourself the Advanced Custom Fields plugin: it makes adding additional fields very quick and easy. I use it all the time.
I've created some custom fields to make it easier to add specific list items to a section in wordpress then I deleted the post and the custom fields disappear.
Does anybody knows how to keep a custom field after deleting the original post where they where created?
you should use an custom meta box.
In this you can specify your values so each post can access the values:
