• It all depends. WordPress has *_meta fields available; you can add metadata to posts or to users. You'd probably be looking for a plugin, or writing one yourself; WordPress.com has limited plugins available, as I understand it, and I doubt you'd be able to upload your own code. (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.) If you're running self-hosted (ie, ".org") you can add any plugins you'd like. – Pat J Commented Aug 28, 2023 at 16:12
• can you please recommend a powerful plugin based on your experience. – Mariam Commented Aug 30, 2023 at 6:15
• Not really, because generally I've just written what I need. I've used CMB2 extensively as a handy library; others on this site use ACF a lot, but I've got 0 experience with it. – Pat J Commented Aug 30, 2023 at 14:27

A high level answer is take a look at post meta: https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/assign-custom-fields/ Custom meta fields can be added and retrieved for any post/page and displayed on the front end.

Also see https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/ which runs on either wordpress.org or .com versions.
