Fieldsets

A fieldset is a named group of fields that describes one kind of content: "Book details" with a date, a gallery and a price, or "Writer profile" with a photo and a bio. You build fieldsets under VX → Fieldsets.

A fieldset on its own appears nowhere. Its Locations decide where the form shows up: on a post type, on a taxonomy's terms, or on user profiles. Keeping the two apart lets one fieldset serve several places, and lets a post type collect fields from several fieldsets.

Each fieldset's editor has five tabs: Fields (see Fields), Locations, General, Revisions and Source (see Config as code).
