YouTube Post Type allows you to easily add YouTube videos as post into your WordPress installation via the introduction of register_post_type in WordPress v2.9. This will make YouTube a first class citizen in your WordPress.
Why would you want to do this? If you want a post to represent a YouTube video.
You add YouTube videos by specifying the URL or the YouTube id.
Your YouTube thumbnails are also downloaded and pulled into the system so you can use them. Your YouTube also gets associated to the first thumbnail found.
<h3>How It Works</h3>
YouTube Post Type allows a WordPress post to represent a YouTube video via WordPress custom post types. This makes YouTube a first class citizen, and easily extensible by other plugins.
<h3>Why I Created It</h3>
Shortcomings of other YouTube plugins:
<ol>
<li>Most of them were to embed YouTube video via a WordPress shortcode</li>
<li>None of them detailed how the plugin worked to support a YouTube as a post.</li>
</ol>

WordPress doesn’t support date archives for custom post types out of the box. This plugin adds the rewrite rules needed to view the date archives at a <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/article/introduction-to-blogging/#pretty-permalinks" rel="ugc">pretty permalink</a>.
Example permalink (url) for a custom post type <code>events</code> date archive.
<pre><code>https://example.com/events/2015/06/12
</code></pre>
The calendar, archive and recent posts widget are similar to the existing WordPress widgets, but with extra (custom post type) options added.
The cpt date archives use the same theme template files as the normal WordPress date archives. Extra <a href="https://github.com/keesiemeijer/custom-post-type-date-archives/wiki/Theme-Template-Files" rel="nofollow ugc">template files</a> and <a href="https://github.com/keesiemeijer/custom-post-type-date-archives/wiki/Functions" rel="nofollow ugc">template functions</a> are available for use in the custom post type date archives.
