MB Custom Post Types & Custom Taxonomies vs Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields

MB Custom Post Types & Custom Taxonomies lets you register and edit custom post types and custom taxonomies in WordPress through an easy-to-use UI in the admin area. No coding required. The plugin lets you control all post type arguments and taxonomy arguments, such as menu labels, admin bar label, exclude from search, disable archive page, and more, in minutes. You no longer need to write custom PHP code to register custom post types (using the functions register_post_type() and register_taxonomy()). Meta Box Lite We recommend using Meta Box Lite, a free UI version of Meta Box. It provides UI and all free features for managing custom fields and dynamic content on WordPress, including post types, taxonomies, custom fields, and relationships. With MB Custom Post Types & Custom Taxonomies, you can turn the WordPress admin into a professional CMS (content management system). Why use MB Custom Post Types & Custom Taxonomies? Custom post types and custom taxonomies are the foundation of a modern WordPress website. They let you organize content beyond posts and pages, such as Products, Movies, Team Members, Testimonials, and Events. Writing register_post_type() and register_taxonomy() code for each one takes time and causes errors. This plugin removes all the PHP coding. You do everything through a clean, intuitive UI in the WordPress admin: Create and manage post types & taxonomies visually – no PHP knowledge required. Save time with live editing mode – the plugin generates labels automatically from the singular and plural names you enter. Control every argument – every setting from register_post_type() and register_taxonomy() is available, from menu position and icons to capabilities and REST API support. Export & import – move your post types and taxonomies between sites with one click, or export them as PHP code to embed in your theme or plugin. For developers and non-developers alike – from clients who want a professional CMS to developers who want full control.
