This is a tool for developers who want to turbo-charge their custom post type listings with metadata, taxonomies, and more. An intuitive interface for adding (and saving) complex filtersets is provided, along with a drag-and-drop interface for choosing and ordering columns to be displayed. Metaboxes are also automatically generated for all your metadata-entry needs.
<ul>
<li>Add columns to the post listing view</li>
<li>Filter post listings by custom criteria</li>
<li>Easily add metaboxes to custom post types</li>
<li>Automatically add registered taxonomies to post listings</li>
<li>Sort by post metadata</li>
</ul>
See docs/documentation.html in the plugin directory for full documentation.

Advanced Post Manager

This plugin doesn't do anything. It says you have to install it and then get a developer to write some code to make it work. That means this isn't a plugin, it's just a useless piece of code. The plugin repository should only be for plugins that actually add some functionality to your WordPress website. This "plugin" is just taking up space and confusing people. Did the developers just get bored and decided not to finish their plugin? It should be removed from the plugin repository!

Should Be Removed

Turbo charge your posts admin for any custom post type with sortable filters and columns, and auto-registration of metaboxes.
