## Sharraxaad

Custom Post Type UI provides an easy-to-use interface for registering and
 managing
custom post types and taxonomies for your WordPress website — no coding required.

Used by more than 1,000,000 active WordPress sites, CPTUI is the trusted
 foundation
for building structured content in WordPress. Whether you are creating a portfolio,
events calendar, product catalog, staff directory, or any other custom content type,
CPTUI gives you the tools to define it quickly and correctly.

#### Ready to go further? Meet CPT UI Pro

CPTUI handles registration. **CPT UI Pro** handles everything else.

[CPT UI Pro](https://pluginize.com/plugins/custom-post-type-ui-pro/?utm_source=cptui-description&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=wporg)

is the official premium add-on built by the same WebDevStudios team that created
and maintains this plugin. It extends CPTUI into a complete content operations stack—
front-end display blocks, admin list table controls, multisite management, and a
full developer API.

**Front-end display tools**

 * Ten built-in layout options: Default, List, Single Post Type, Taxonomy
    List,
   Post Slider, Post Cards, Featured Plus, Grid, and Grid With Overlay
 * Taxonomy Filter Blocks so visitors can filter content by term
 * Single Post Block Templates to control individual post output
 * Shortcode Builder for reusable, configurable display output

**Admin list table management**

 * Column Builder with drag-and-drop column control for any post type
 * Advanced Filters by taxonomy, meta field, date, author, and status
 * Screen Options Panel for per-user admin table visibility

**Multisite management**

 * Network-level CPT registration from one central location
 * Push config to subsites to keep site structures consistent
 * Per-site inheritance control for flexible network governance

**Developer-focused workflow**

 * `cptui_pro_post_types` filter to merge, modify, or replace registrations
 * Auto-discovery hooks so themes and plugins can register CPTs without
    manual 
   setup
 * Programmatic registration API for JSON-driven or CI-driven workflows
 * Extended REST API support on top of core CPTUI REST capabilities

While learning to set up custom post types, I thought it would be a long process,
but it was easy to do!

CPT UI is the standard for managing post types in WordPress. It allows developers
to extend WordPress capabilities without writing complex code. To help the Persian
community, I have translated 100% of the plugin and Readme.As the PTE for this locale,
I focused on using standard WordPress terminology (e.g., correct translation for“
Slug”, “Taxonomy”, “Hierarchical”) to ensure the interface is intuitive for Iranian
developers. Thanks for this great plugin! Best regards,@saeidafshariترجمه فارسی 
این افزونه محبوب به صورت ۱۰۰٪ کامل شد. تلاش کردم در ترجمه اصطلاحات فنی مثل (نامک،
طبقه‌بندی و…) از استانداردهای رسمی وردپرس استفاده کنم تا رابط کاربری برای همکاران
عزیز روان و قابل‌فهم باشد.

 [saksaksak](https://profiles.wordpress.org/saksaksak/) 7 Nofeembar, 2025

For the development of a new site, I have been using a combination of CPT UI and
ACF. I have specifically chosen CPT UI for the management of Custom Post Types and
Taxonomies whilst using ACF for the fields. I have tried out the ACF CPT and Taxonomy
functionality and I like the user interface (to see a list of the created staff 
in a simple way etc) of ACF more, but I chose CPT UI because it is proven with years
and it is portable. I did not want to get locked into ACF for everyhing.

Bad, really bad, really bad, WordPress is used by millions of people who have no
idea how to program, but with this plugin you have to edit PHP… no, no, useless 
garbage. You can’t display the types of content you’ve created, you can’t do anything
but act like an idiot for a while, until you get tired and delete it.
