Supercharge Your WordPress Content with Custom Post Types and Advanced Custom Fields
Tired of using the standard Posts and Pages for all your content? Ready to transform WordPress into a powerful Content Management System (CMS) that perfectly matches your project's needs?

Join the Eket WordPress Community this month as we dive deep into the essential combination of Custom Post Types (CPT) and Advanced Custom Fields (ACF).

We'll explore how these tools work together to create structured, user-friendly, and powerful content types for anything from Events, Portfolios, Staff Listings, Products, or Real Estate.

What You Will Learn

  • Understanding Custom Post Types (CPTs): Learn what CPTs are, why they are essential for complex websites, and how to register them easily (often using a plugin like CPT UI or ACF's built-in feature).
  • The Power of Advanced Custom Fields (ACF): Discover how to create and manage custom fields (Text, Images, Repeaters, Galleries, etc.) and assign them to your new CPTs.
  • Creating a Custom Content Structure: See a live demo on building a completely custom content structure—for example, a Recipe CPT with custom fields for Ingredients (using a Repeater Field), Cook Time, and a Difficulty Rating.
  • Displaying Custom Content: Get an overview of how to display your new CPTs and their custom fields on the front-end of your website using theme templates or page builders like Elementor (or similar).
  • Custom Taxonomies: Learn how to use Custom Taxonomies (like categories or tags, but specific to your CPT) to organize your new content types.

Who Should Attend?

  • Beginner Developers looking to move beyond simple themes.
  • Intermediate WordPress Users who want to build custom solutions without writing a ton of code.
  • Freelancers and Agencies aiming to deliver more tailored and maintainable client projects.
  • Anyone at all interested in WordPress
