Custom controls allow you to add raw HTML in a control. Mostly used for informative controls, expanatory headers etc, but you can use it for whatever you want.
You can enter your custom HTML in the field's `default` argument.
### Example
```php
<?php
Kirki::add_field( 'theme_config_id', array(
'type' => 'custom',
'settings' => 'my_setting',
'label' => __( 'This is the label', 'textdomain' ),
'section' => 'section_id',
'default' => '<div style="padding: 30px;background-color: #333; color: #fff; border-radius: 50px;">' . esc_html__( 'You can enter custom markup in this control and use it however you want', 'textdomain' ) . '</div>',
'priority' => 10,
) );
?>
```
The content of the field is defined in the `default` argument.
You can use valid HTML.
### Usage
The `custom` control does not return any value. Its function is usually decorative and informational in the customizer.
