WordPress Post Types and Taxonomies

Archives’ stacks (Photo credit: dolescum)

When you think of post types, the important word to remember is organization. The post type itself will not add really any functionality, but it allows us to better organize WordPress content and build admin dashboards that are more specific to the type of site that we are working with.

Here are some important things to remember when working with post types:

• When you create a new post type, a new upper level nav element will appear the main left side admin menu. From there, all of the standard post and page editors are available.


• The URL string for a new post type will be : http://yoursite.com/{post-type}/{title}/.


• You can create post type archive pages just like you do with categories, and you can even create special template files by creating an archive-{post-type}.php file.

For other info on integrating post types, querying post types, and overall functions, visit the WordPress Codex.
