Custom Post Types
Overview
WordPress provides a powerful way to create your own content types. WP Bones provides a simple way to add your own Custom Post Types.
Create a Custom Post Type Service Provider
You may create your own Custom Post Type Service Provider by following the steps below:
php bones make:cpt MyCustomPostTypeBy default, the new provider will be created in the plugins/CustomPostTypes directory. Of course, you may create your Service Provider manually and in any directory you prefer. You have to change the namespace accordingly.
/plugin/CustomPostTypes/MyCustomPostType.php
<?php
namespace WPKirk\CustomPostTypes;
use WPKirk\WPBones\Foundation\WordPressCustomPostTypeServiceProvider;
class MyCustomPostType extends WordPressCustomPostTypeServiceProvider {
protected $id = 'wp_kirk_cpt';
protected $name = 'Captain';
protected $plural = 'Captains';
/**
* You may override this method in order to register your own actions and filters.
*
*/
public function boot()
{
// You may override this method
}
/**
* Override this method to save/update your custom data.
* This method is called by hook action save_post_{post_type}`
*
* @param int|string $post_id Post ID
* @param object $post Optional. Post object
*
*/
public function update( $post_id, $post )
{
// You can override this method to save your own data
}
}Load the Custom Post Type Service Provider
Add this new Service Provider to the list of providers in the /config/plugin.php file:
config/plugin.php
/*
