Very happy to be in Veroia and its infamous library
for the 4th WordPress meetup
My goal today is to help you understand what custom
post types and taxonomies are and motivate you to use them!
What is WordPress, a blog engine or a CMS? A
bit of history!
WordPress v.1 - 2004
Whaaah?
WordPress v.1 - 2004
WordPress v.2 – 2005/6
WordPress v.2 – 2005/6
WordPress v.2 – 2005/6
WordPress v.2.5 - 2008
WordPress v.3.0 - 2010
A little better!
WordPress v.3.5 - 2012
WordPress v.4.0 - 2014
Pretty sure that's WordPress!
WordPress v.4.0 - 2014
WordPress evolution not just design-wise
WordPress v.1 970kb v.4.0 18.2mb
WordPress ~37mil. installations x2 with wordpress.com 2/3 of CMS based
websites 30% of all websites use a CMS (src https://managewp.com/14-surprising-statistics-about-wordpress-usage)
That is a lot!
WordPress has evolved into a full featured CMS (and even
more)
Version 1 Posts & Categories
Version 2 Posts & Pages Categories & Tags
Version 3 Custom post types Custom taxonomies Now, we 're
talking, right?
Custom post types are like posts and pages and ...custom
taxonomies are like categories and tags
So, we 've got posts, pages, categories and tags and...
more posts, more pages, more categories and more tags?
That all?
No! What you have is an extensible data structure functionality.
Extensible data structures!
Extensible data structures that are simple and available!
Custom post types Create a new area of special pages
and name it what you like/need
Custom taxonomies Create a new ways to categorise the post
types you manage
Example 1: a video club Custom post type => movie
Custom taxonomies => category, studio, country
Example 2: a house broker Custom post type => house
Custom taxonomies => house type, area, usage
Example 3: corporate website common patterns Pages => corporate info
Posts => news/blog
Example 3: corporate website common patterns Custom post type =>
projects Custom taxonomies => project category, project area
Example 3: Pages => Home page Profile Services Products Contact
etc
Example 3: Posts => News "New website online" "Summer sales
this week" "Latest products" etc
Example 3: Projects => "Supermarket eshop" "Developed corporate website" "Created
logo for customer" etc
Example 3: Project category => website, eshop, design, etc Project
area => Athens, Larissa, Veroia, etc
Let's make a custom post type from scratch
OMG he's gonna show code!
None
OMG that was code!
None
The important bits: name taxonomies hierarchical capability
Let's make a custom taxonomy from scratch
None
OMG somebody stop him!
None
The important bits: name post_types hierarchical
Relax! There are tools to generate this code: "Generate WP"
http://generatewp.com
None
There are plugins with a UI "GD Custom Post Types
and Taxonomies Tools" https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-taxonomies-tools/
None
So, not so bad after all...
We may also need custom fields users and roles settings
API plugin API
And of course the templates (or the theme) to show
them
And now we have a modern, fully featured, extensible CMS
WordPress Blog engine => CMS => Application platform => (Mobile
application platform) Next?
WordPress is a full featured web platform...
... and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
