A free plugin for WordPress to create custom post types

Custom Post Type UI gives you an intuitive interface for registering and managing custom posts. This custom post plugin also gives you an easy-to-use interface to manage website categorization or taxonomies. Larger custom post formats can indeed slow down WordPress, so if it or any of its functions bother you, you can always revert your changes by deactivating the plugin.

This custom post creator plugin is suitable for any eCommerce website built with WYSIWYG Web Builder or Yahoo Site Builder. You can set up custom categories while adding item specifics to listings.

What is Custom Post Type UI?

It is a tool for creating custom post types and taxonomy categories with your WordPress editor. It changes how you use WordPress and the way you make new posts.

How do I use CPT UI?

Install the plugin and activate it through the WordPress GUI. Similar to a drag-and-drop system, you can pick the type of custom post elements you want. Then, you can tailor and slot it in.

Will it change the WordPress dashboard layout?

In a way, it does, just like when you download Yoast and see that your dash has new areas for entering metadata. With this plugin, you can do something similar. For example, you may add a section that describes which camera took the photos on your website.

Bigger sites might struggle

If you run a big site, having custom post GUIs and associated taxonomies can use a lot of processing power. So for larger WordPress websites, this plugin will need a good tune-up.

The premium version lacks

Though the free custom post plugin is fine for small post types, the premium version doesn't offer enough to justify the upgrade. It needs more lightweight coding, designs, and customization tools.

  • Pros

    • Saves time when listing multiple items
    • Helps ensure contributors add correct information
    • Speeds up posting of new content
  • Cons

    • Taxonomies need to be scrubbed from the database after they're deleted
    • Doesn't work with several custom eCommerce themes
    • Premium version doesn't offer enough to justify the upgrade fee

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
