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!
<ul>
<li>Want to rename <code>Posts</code> to <code>News</code>?</li>
<li>Want to rename <code>Media</code> to <code>Files</code>?</li>
<li>Want to rename a <code>Portfolio</code> post type to <code>Projects</code>?</li>
</ul>
You can do all of this (and more) using this plugin.
For example, you could customize the following Custom Post Types:
<ul>
<li>The <code>Posts</code> Custom Post Type (created by WordPress Core)</li>
<li>The <code>Pages</code> Custom Post Type (created by WordPress Core)</li>
<li>The <code>Media</code> Custom Post Type (created by WordPress Core)</li>
<li>Any Custom Post Type that is created by a WordPress plugin</li>
<li>Any Custom Post Type that is created by a WordPress theme</li>
</ul>
This means that you no longer have to modify PHP files in order to rename a Custom Post Type!

Custom Post Type Editor

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! 🍹

Had to rename default Posts post type while drunk—worked!
