AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
More Types is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 2 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +High average rating (5.0★) signals consistent merchant satisfaction

How More Types works
Show full descriptionShow less
More Types is a WordPress plugin that adds new post types to the WordPress admin. For instance, if you run a music site you could create a review post type (based on the post). If you run a food blog you could create a post type for recipes.
If you use More Fields in addition to More Types you could for instance add an input field where you put the ingredients and another where you input cooking time.
With More Types you can:
Create additional post types
Allow different WordPress User roles to have different rights to review, save, and publish a specific post type (even built in post types)
List posts in specific menus in the WordPress admin
Set a range of editing capabilities of the post type based on user level
More Types is part of a suite of plugins created to enhance the functionality of a vanilla WordPress installation. With More Fields you can create additional input fields for easier management of Custom fields, with More Taxonomies you can create additional taxonomies besides Categories and Tags. More Types works without the other plugins but interacts with them nicely.
This plugins was born out of the development work done for Dagensskiva, Dagensbok and user requests.
