Create and manage sections

Before working with fields, it's important to define a section. A section is a group of fields with a similar set of purpose.
  • Default Section: A default section is the standard one that contains all the default fields in it. Users can also add new custom fields to their default section.
  • New Section: A new section is the one that the user adds below the default section. A set of fields with similar purpose is grouped under a section.  
For example, if the user has a list of fields that are related to development then it can be added under a new section 'Development'.
