This pull request adds comprehensive, production-ready documentation for several core field types in Secure Custom Fields (SCF).

The goal of this work is to provide clear, consistent, and authoritative documentation that meets WordPress.org standards and supports both non-technical users and developers.

Included documentation

  • Checkbox Field
  • Button Group Field
  • Clone Field
  • Color Picker Field
  • Image Field
  • Date Picker Field

Documentation scope

Each documentation page:

  • Follows a consistent structure across all field types
  • Is written in clear, accessible English
  • Addresses both editor-facing usage and developer implementation
  • Uses a single real-world example (a movie website) for consistency
  • Includes practical, maintainable code examples following WordPress coding standards
  • Avoids references to any predecessor or competing plugins

Purpose

  • Improve onboarding for new SCF users
  • Serve as a reliable reference for developers
  • Establish a scalable documentation standard for future field types

This pull request contains documentation only and does not introduce any functional or behavioral changes to the plugin.
