WordPress custom fields

[chipperhead]

I wonder if anyone can help me out. I'm trying to add a custom field to a page on WordPress.
I created a new custom field, when I go to edit the page the cutome field boxes are now there. I fill in the data but when I view the page it doesn't show any of the data.
I then went to duplicate an existing custom field page and changed all the data to my new field.
This works and shows all the data however when I preview the page just above the custom field data I have entered it has a title of the existing custom field that I duplicated from. I can't find anyway way to edit this.

If anyone had any advice that would be great.
Thanks

Custom fields won't just appear on the page. You need to add the code to the page template to make it show the field.
Check the documentation for the custom field plugin your using for how to add the fields to the page.

Thanks for your help
