Displaying meta information that you have created using custom meta boxes in Easy Content Types is really simple, as long as you are using version 2.3 or newer. There are a series of options in the Settings page that allows you to define how the meta field values should be displayed.

To get to the options that control how meta information is displayed, first go to the Settings page under the Content Types menu. Then scroll to the bottom. You will have a list of checkboxes for each post type you have registered in your WordPress install (including the default Posts and Pages).

The meta information will be displayed in an ordered list (a UL tag) at the bottom of your entry’s content.
