Nice code, but how can I let it appear on the product page?

You would extend your child theme and query the field using get_post_meta(). Field ID is set in line 4 in my code, that's what you'd reference in get_post_meta().

I don't know how to do that because I don't have any PHP experience. Can you maybe suggest any code which could help me?

thanks in advance

Hi Jan, thanks for this amazing code snippet, is there an option to make the new Field appears in the quick edit page?
