## Descrição

_Easy Post Types and Fields_ makes it quick and easy to [add custom post types](https://barn2.com/blog/custom-wordpress-post-types/?utm_source=wporg&utm_medium=freeplugin&utm_campaign=freepluginwporg&utm_content=ecpt-wporg),
custom fields, and taxonomies to your WordPress website.

There are lots of reasons why WordPress site owners need to add extra content types
to the CMS:

 * **Create dedicated areas for each type of content within the WordPress admin (
   these are called ‘custom post types’)**. For example, if you’re adding ‘Resources’
   to your site then it’s best to create a ‘Resources’ custom post type and manage
   the resources separately from your pages and posts.
 * **Add extra fields (called ‘custom fields’) to your pages, posts, or any custom
   post type**. These are useful for storing and displaying information in a structured
   way. For example, you might add a ‘Modified Date’ field to your Resources post
   type.
 * **Create extra ways of categorizing and organizing your website content (these
   are called ‘custom taxonomies’)**. These are like categories and tags in WordPress,
   but the difference is that you can have as many as you like – for any post type.
   For example, you might create an ‘Industries’ taxonomy in order to group your
   Resources by industry.

Developed by leading UK-based plugin company [Barn2](https://barn2.com/?utm_source=wporg&utm_medium=freeplugin&utm_campaign=freepluginwporg&utm_content=ecpt-wporg),
_Easy Post Types and Fields_ is intentionally simpler and easier to use than other
plugins. It has all the essential features that you need to create custom post types,
custom fields, and custom taxonomies – without any unnecessary complexity.

#### How to add custom post types, fields, and taxonomies to WordPress

Simply create any type of content using a simple and intuitive wizard. You can create
brand new custom post types, or add custom fields and taxonomies to existing post
types. Either way, it’s incredibly straightforward.

Once you have created your custom post types, fields, and taxonomies, it’s easy 
to add the extra information to the WordPress CMS. Each custom post type has its
own section on the left of the WordPress admin. Your custom fields and taxonomies
appear on the ‘Add/Edit’ screen for each post.

View the full [plugin documentation](https://barn2.com/kb-categories/easy-post-types-fields-kb/?utm_source=wporg&utm_medium=freeplugin&utm_campaign=freepluginwporg&utm_content=ecpt-wporg)
in our knowledge base.

#### Can I display the custom content on the front end of my website?

By default, your theme will display your custom post types using the same templates
as the blog. This will list custom posts in the same way as blog posts, and won’t
include your custom fields or taxonomies. This may not be the best way to present
your custom content, so we recommend displaying it in a table using the [Posts Table Pro](https://barn2.com/wordpress-plugins/posts-table-pro/?utm_source=wporg&utm_medium=freeplugin&utm_campaign=freepluginwporg&utm_content=ecpt-wporg)
plugin.

Posts Table Pro is a dynamic WordPress table plugin that lists any type of content
from your website in a searchable table. As well as displaying any custom post type,
you can choose which columns of information to show in the table – including your
custom fields and custom taxonomies. See below for screenshots.

Your users will view the information in a table on the front end of your site. They
can use the search box, sortable columns, and filter dropdowns to find exactly what
they’re looking for.

This is how it displays the information from Easy Post Types and Fields:

 * Create a table listing any or all of the posts from your custom post type. For
   example, you can list all the custom posts, or list posts with a specific ID,
   custom field value, custom taxonomy term, published date, etc.
 * Display each custom field as a separate column in the table. Users can sort the
   table by custom field.
 * Display each custom taxonomy as a separate column in the table. Users can sort
   by taxonomy terms, and also click on a term to filter the table. In addition,
   you can add each taxonomy as a filter dropdown above the table. That way, users
   can instantly find custom posts by taxonomy.

#### This free WordPress custom post type plugin includes:

 * Custom post types:
    - Create an unlimited number of custom post types. Each custom post type has
      its own section in the WordPress admin, so you can manage your custom content
      separately from other WordPress post types.
    - Extend existing post types.
 * Custom fields:
    - Add custom fields to any WordPress post type – either the post types that 
      are built into WordPress itself (pages, posts, media attachments, etc.), content
      types created using Easy Post Types and Fields, or any other custom post type(
      e.g. post types created using other plugins such as [Document Library Pro](https://barn2.com/wordpress-plugins/document-library-pro/?utm_source=wporg&utm_medium=freeplugin&utm_campaign=freepluginwporg&utm_content=ecpt-wporg)
      and [WooCommerce Product Table](https://barn2.com/wordpress-plugins/woocommerce-product-table/?utm_source=wporg&utm_medium=freeplugin&utm_campaign=freepluginwporg&utm_content=ecpt-wporg).
    - 2 custom field types: Plain text or WYSIWYG (Visual Editor).
 * Custom taxonomies:
    - Add custom taxonomies to any post type.
    - Choose between hierarchical taxonomies (similar to WordPress categories) or
      non-hierarchical taxonomies (similar to WordPress tags).
    - Each taxonomy is unique to a specific post type, so you can manage the taxonomy
      terms separately from other categories and taxonomies.

#### What doesn’t it include?

Easy Post Types and Fields includes the features that the majority of WordPress 
site owners use when they create custom post types, custom fields, and taxonomies.
It intentionally does not include more advanced features that only a small proportion
of users need, such as:

 * Additional custom field types such as date picker, checkbox, and color picker
   fields (remember, you can add dates, numbers, images, etc. to a Visual Editor
   custom field in Easy Post Types and Fields).
 * Privacy options to restrict which user roles can see each field.
 * Relationship and repeater fields.
 * Advanced Content Types (ACTs) that get their own database tables.

If you need these features then we recommend using a different custom post type 
plugin (e.g. Pods, Custom Post Type UI, or ACF). There are some excellent options
available if you are happy with the added complexity.

#### Restrict access to custom post types and make them private

Some people want to control who can access some or all of their custom posts. You
can do this by using Easy Post Types and Fields with our other plugin, [WordPress Password Protected Categories](https://barn2.com/wordpress-plugins/password-protected-categories/?utm_source=wporg&utm_medium=freeplugin&utm_campaign=freepluginwporg&utm_content=ecpt-wporg).
This adds privacy options to your hierarchical custom taxonomies.

Simply restrict each one to specific logged-in users or user roles, or to anyone
with the password. All the posts/custom posts in that taxonomy will then be private
and hidden from view.

Worked. But I ended up deleting the plugin and adding a few lines of code to do 
the same thing.

This plugin was extensively researched by our programmers and was compared to others
with similar solutions. Lacks features, its design is weak and we found conflicts
with other plugins. It’s the 3rd time that we find Barn2 plugins not satisfactory.
