Instead of adding a custom page, can you do the same things with just a regular page?

Treehouse Guest TeacherIf you're asking if you can add custom fields to normal pages, yes :)
You would setup your fields the same way as the video shows, but then when you select what post type to apply the fields to you can select page or post instead of your custom post type.

All regular pages will belong to the post type "Pages". If that is ok, for example if you just want an "About Me" page, there is no need to do a custom post type.
