README

A WordPress custom post type creator class.

Installation

Via composer:

composer require elcontraption/wp-post-type

Create a post type

Create an 'event' post type:

use \ElContraption\WpPostType\PostType;

$events = new PostType('event');

The first argument may either be a string representing the name of the post type (typically singular), or an array defining singular, and plural names:

$events = new PostType(array(

    // These are required when passing an array for the first parameter
    'singular' => 'Gallery',
    'plural' => 'Galleries',

    // Optional
    'name' => 'gallery'
));

Labels

Labels are assigned based on the singular and plural names. You may override any post type label by passing an array of labels for the second parameter:

$labels = array(

    // Override the 'add_new' label
    'add_new' => 'My Custom Label'
);

$events = new PostType('event', $labels);

Arguments

The default WordPress post type arguments are respected, which means your custom post type will not be public by default see defaults. You may set your own arguments by passing an array for the third parameter:

$args = array(

    // Make this post type public
    'public' => true
);

$events = new PostType('event', $labels, $args);
