## Description
**Custom Fields to Meta Tags** lets you leverage WordPress custom fields to generate`
` tags in your site’s `` section.
Simply add a custom field to your post or page with a key that starts with **cfmt**,
and the plugin will automatically turn it into a meta tag.
**Example:**
– Custom field key: `cfmtdescription` – Custom field value: `Description
of the post/page` – Output in ``:
### Key Features
* Lightweight, zero-configuration – just activate and use.
* Prefix-based system (`cfmt`) to avoid conflicts.
* Works with posts, pages, and custom post types.
* Useful for creating:
- Meta descriptions
- Author or copyright tags
- Custom SEO tags
### Why use this plugin?

is the simplest solution.
No settings page, no bloat — just pure functionality.
