<p>Customizing provides a nice interface for you to create custom post types, taxonomies and fields (meta boxes).</p>
<p>You’ll find the Customizing tools in the ‘Customizing’ menu.</p>
<p>In the ‘Custom Box’ screen, you may show and hide groups of fields, and order them the way you like.</p>
<p>All the settings are based on the WordPress API settings, therefore, the oficial guides apply to them.</p>
<h3>Known Problems</h3>
<ul>
<li>Custom boxes and user boxes won’t work if you have taxonomy terms with quotes.</li>
</ul>


Customizing – Post Types, Taxonomies & Fields

Custom post types, taxonomies and fields for WordPress.

<p>This plugin adds a simple post-type drop-down to the post editor interface, allowing you to reassign any post to a new post type. It allows you to switch post’s type while editing your post.</p>
<h4>Supported Types</h4>
<p>The plugin can convert nearly every combination of posts, pages, and even custom post types:</p>
<ul>
<li>Page to Post</li>
<li>Post to Page</li>
<li>Post to Custom</li>
<li>Custom to Custom</li>
</ul>
<p>As of 3.0.0, support for switching to or from Attachments was removed. This may come back in a subsequent version.</p>
<p>Invisible post types, such as revisions, menus, etc., are purposely excluded. But, if you need to access invisible post types, you can adjust the boundaries using the ‘pts_post_type_filter’ filter.</p>
<h4>Bulk Editing</h4>
<p>With bulk editing (thanks to Matthew Gerring) you can select all the posts in a certain type and convert them to a new type with one quick action.</p>
<h4>Block Editor</h4>
<p>With block-editor (aka Gutenberg) support (thanks to Daniel Bachhuber) you can switch between post-types that use either the Block Editor and the Classic one, without losing any of your embedded content.</p>
