Sleek Post Types

BREAKING! v7 - exclude_from_search no longer set to false by default - sleek/post_types/archive_fields filter now gets passed the post type object - not just its name - as its second argument

Create post types by creating classes in /post-types/.

Functions

Sleek\PostTypes\get_file_meta()

Classes

Sleek\PostTypes\PostType

Extend this class to create a post type.

PostType::init()

This method is called once on every page load. It allows you to add hooks or do whatever you like related to your post type.

PostType::config()

Return an array of post type configuration here. The array is passed directly to register_post_type. A few additional properties are available:

taxonomies

This is a native WordPress property but unlike when calling register_post_type() any taxonomy set in here will be automatically created if it doesn't already exist.

has_single

Set this to false to disable single pages for the post type.

hide_from_search

Hides the post type from search without the side effects of the built-in exclude_from_search.

has_settings

Set this to false to not add a "Settings" page for the post type.

has_archive

If this is false the settings page will be empty, if not it will have a "Title", "Image" and "Description".

PostType::fields()

Return an array of ACF fields from here and they will be added to the post type.

PostType::sticky_modules()

Return an array of module names and they will be added to the post type. Render a sticky module using Sleek\Modules\render('name-of-module').

PostType::flexible_modules()

Return an array of module names and they will be available in a flexible content field named flexible_modules. An associative array can be used to create multiple flexible content fields;

[
	'left_column' => ['text-block', 'text-blocks'],
	'right_column' => ['related-posts', 'recent-comments']
]

Render a flexible module field using Sleek\Modules\render_flexible('flexible_modules') or Sleek\Modules\render_flexible('left_column') etc.

PostType::sticky_archive_modules()

Return an array of module names and they will be added to the post type's settings page. Render a sticky module using Sleek\Modules\render('name-of-module', 'mycpt_settings').

PostType::flexible_archive_modules()

Return an array of module names and they will be available in a flexible content field named flexible_modules on the post type's settings page. An associative array can be used here too.

Render modules on the settings page using Sleek\Modules\render_flexible('flexible_modules', 'mycpt_settings').
