Based on the type of field, there may be cases where you want to allow multiple instances of a field. Maybe you want to collect multiple images. The Field settings tab allows us to specify whether we want a single instance, a specific number of instances, or unlimited instances.

Keep in mind that Field settings can only be modified if we have not added content to a field that has data stored in it. So, it is important to think about how we want to use a field when we first create it. Having a clear content model will ensure that we don't run into issues where we may need to recreate a field for the sake of modifying the Field settings.

Now that we have a better understanding of content types and their respective fields, it's time to take a closer look by creating our first custom content type.
