Hello, I am a Jr. developer and still trying to figure things out as I go along, it would be very very helpful for me to be able to dump all the available custom and related fields unto the custom-post to see what's all available to display, I have tried the following from MB Veiws in twig but just errors:
```
<pre>
    {{ dump(post) }}
</pre>
```
I also have debug enabled in wp-config

Hi,

Please use the WordPress function get_post_custom() to get all meta fields base on the post ID.

Could you share the exact syntax I would need to use for that:
```
<?php
get_post_custom()
?>
```
is not working.

Hi Joseph,

To run a PHP function in View, please use the proxy mb. Get more details on the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-views/#running-php-functions

There is a message under the View editor Supports any HTML/CSS/JS and shortcodes. Use Twig to write conditions, loops and more. To run a PHP function, use mb.function_name(param).

Would you mind giving me the correct syntax for this, so I can just drop it on the page? - Thanks!

Hi Joseph,

You can try to use this code in View
```
{% set post_meta = mb.get_post_custom( post.ID ) %}
{{ mb.var_dump( post_meta ) }}
```
Type: Singular, Location: Post, screenshot https://share.getcloudapp.com/YEuZlQAN
