Custom Post Type Editor

Descripción

Customize the text labels, menu names or description for any registered custom post type using a simple Dashboard user interface. No PHP file editing is necessary!

  • Want to rename Posts to News?
  • Want to rename Media to Files?
  • Want to rename a Portfolio post type to Projects?

You can do all of this (and more) using this plugin.

For example, you could customize the following Custom Post Types:

  • The Posts Custom Post Type (created by WordPress Core)
  • The Pages Custom Post Type (created by WordPress Core)
  • The Media Custom Post Type (created by WordPress Core)
  • Any Custom Post Type that is created by a WordPress plugin
  • Any Custom Post Type that is created by a WordPress theme

This means that you no longer have to modify PHP files in order to rename a Custom Post Type!

See the screenshots and Custom Post Type Editor Plugin home page for further information.

FAQ

What does this plugin do?

It provides an easy way for you to modify/customise the labels and/or description of any registered Custom Post Type. This includes WordPress' built-in post types, as well as any Custom Post Types created by a plugin or theme.

What doesn’t this plugin do?

It doesn’t allow you do other things such as changing a Custom Post Type’s rewrite slug or body class. Changing those can cause styling or display issues with themes.

If you look at this WordPress Codex page, the labels values can be changed by this plugin. The description can also be changed by this plugin. All other parameters (such as public, exclude_from_search, etc.) cannot be customised using this plugin.

Does this plugin modify any core WordPress, plugin or theme files?

No. It uses WordPress' hook/filter to override Custom Post Type definitions on-the-fly. No files are modified by this plugin.

Does this plugin permanently change anything?

No. If you deactivate this plugin, your Custom Post Type definitions will revert to their defaults.

Does this plugin work with WordPress Multisite?

Yes – this plugin works with WordPress Multisite.

I was just wondering why I couldn’t find these settings on a new WP install … I’ve had this plugin installed for many years on my main (old) site that I was thinking these features were built-in to WP core! Thanks for a great plugin, that’s so simple yet so useful. Set and forget. And I see there’s even been a recent update, so a big THANK YOU to @jamescollins … keep up the good work! 🙂

I was tinkering with events plugins and finally found they were all over-qualified for what I needed. After spending 10 minutes with some serious thinking over a Rum Orange, I decided I actually didn’t need default Posts for this project—they’d be my “events”! I’d just have to rename the default “Post” post type labels which I knew was possible, but I didn’t feel like looking up what exactly I’d need to code. (Did I mention Rum Orange? Yeah …) Finding this plugin and getting the job done was a matter of 6.491 minutes. Cheers! 🍹

Allows you to edit the CPT (Custom Post Types) that you get with most themes. Change their names and other elements to suit your needs. Great plugin.

Nice simple plugin for change post type name. Note that it can only change names but not create a new one.

Saved my bacon when I had a conflict between Custom Sidebars and WPCourseware and a specific post_type. Thanks.
