is an individual piece of content that you create after logging into the dashboard of your WordPress website. When you navigate to Posts and click on the Add New post you will see a particular interface for your blog posts. There are many options available to add paragraphs, images, lists, audio, and many more to publish your post. As you can see the picture given below:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/SODLA0swf9IOi1_Mpc4r5bdB-HpBogxz8ClPTrkkgAoWNh5nV90PvOYAiRTrPomhT_Wan55k0CsEaoR60V0dN01jQFAx_JSmnGwraEr_JwgGXxOJw1bVWUJeeE0muUKD5UfCM9kM5SUsT-5bcQ\" alt=\"What is Custom Post Type?\u00a0\" width=\"650\" height=\"435\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The custom post type is not only used for blog posts and is sometimes known as the custom content type which is not included in WordPress by default. You can create more specific types of content by using the same editor and make your website easier to manage.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you want to add a custom post type for products, you navigate to the Products menu (if it is not listed then you must install the woocommerce plugin provided by WordPress to use the functionality of the eCommerce store) and click on the Add New. It will also help you to display testimonials, a product gallery, and other features to make your conversion rate better. You will be directed to a product page with access to a custom editor for adding shipping times, product images, prices, and many more.

The website\u2019s page has the post type \u201cpage\u201d and blog posts\/articles have the post type \u201cpost\u201d. There are many predefined WordPress post types including:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Page (Post Type: \u2018page\u2019)<\/li>\r\n<li>Post (Post Type: \u2018post\u2019)<\/li>\r\n<li>Navigation menu (Post Type: \u2018nav_menu_item\u2019)<\/li>\r\n<li>Attachment (Post Type: \u2018attachment\u2019)<\/li>\r\n<li>Revision (Post Type: \u2018revision\u2019)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You can also remove the built-in functionality and add your custom functionality with the help of a custom post type WordPress plugin. The custom post is also a regular post but it has a different post type value. Following are the examples of custom post type:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Online Store<\/li>\r\n<li>Testimonials<\/li>\r\n<li>Products<\/li>\r\n<li>Places<\/li>\r\n<li>Media<\/li>\r\n<li>People<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_We_Need_WordPress_Custom_Post_Type_Plugins\"><\/span>Why We Need WordPress Custom Post Type Plugins?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You have endless possibilities to show your content in a specific manner and are not forced to use only the built-in post types of WordPress. When do you need custom post types? When your content cannot be displayed in either post or page type and you want to display titles, email addresses, phone numbers, photos, etc. Moreover, you can specify the layout of the post on each page of your website as you want to show.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For a better understanding, consider an example of a blog and portfolio. You must want to distinguish them by using different types of content for both display and structure. Expert developers can also create their post types but if you are a beginner then the plugin options are best for you to use the specific functionality. There are many free WordPress plugins available but if you are unable to perform a particular task you can also use any paid.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have an understanding of how to install WordPress, you can visit this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.temok.com\/wordpress-installation-cpanel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">article<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_Top_Custom_Post_Type_WordPress_Plugins\"><\/span>What are the Top Custom Post Type WordPress Plugins?\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Custom Post Type UI<\/li>\r\n<li>Pods \u2013 Custom Content Types and Fields<\/li>\r\n<li>Custom Post Types and Custom Fields Creator \u2013 WCK<\/li>\r\n<li>Custom Post Type Maker<\/li>\r\n<li>CPT-onomies: Using Custom Post Types as Taxonomies<\/li>\r\n<li>MB Custom Post Type<\/li>\r\n<li>Custom post-type generator<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Install_and_Activate_a_Plugin\"><\/span>How To Install and Activate a Plugin?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Open your dashboard, click on the plugins button, and navigate to Add New.
