And I appreciate how simple you made this. The information to do just about everything known to man is only one click away, you just have to know where to click. Thanks, have a great day!
Hi Jesse, I’m putting together the followup this week. I’m just getting over a cold. I can’t record it because is sound like a frog right now :( I’m all ears for suggestions on what you would like to see in there. If I have too many suggestions I’ll just split it into two tutorials or something. Anyway, thanks for watching!

Very informative video. A note of caution; if you rename a php file such as functions.php and alter the suffix it will become readable to the world which may be a security issue. So in this case it is better to back up functions.php as functions-bkp.php rather than functions.php-bkp.
Hi Bjorn Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us - I am learning a lot... Dumb newbie question though, if the new custom post type is set up in the functions.php file, does that mean it is 're-created' every time the site is accessed (and the functions.php file is run)? If so, is there a way to just set it up in the database once only? Many thanks, Richard
Thank you. It’s a very nice tutorial. I now actually have an understanding how plugin works. Would love to see more. What particularly picked my interest is how you fixed the changes in URL. My question is if URL is changed later, but the link to the custom post was used somewhere else like in another post or as reference by some other site, would the change in URL break the link returning 404 page? Would it have to be mentally redirected in order to get to the post from the old link?
Yes, what you're describing would generate a 404. Any time a URL change is made on your site, then next thing you do is create a redirect. Usually a 301 redirect from the old page to the new one. I have tutorials for that here: with a plugin ( th-cam.com/video/_r6yWJHy-m4/w-d-xo.html ), without a plugin ( th-cam.com/video/xgWPIu8hnG8/w-d-xo.html ). I hope that helps :) Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!
Is there a video by you or article that shows how to make the custom post type included in the search results on WP? I'm not having much success on accomplishing this task.
After creating a custom post type record when I trashed it it just redirect me to the root site page, it doesn't redirect me back to the custom post type record listing (but the post is deleted). Can you help me with this?
Hi Akshay, I can and will. I've written the code for the custom taxonomies already (it's in this blog post: wplearninglab.com/wordpress-custom-post-type-functions/ look for the code box with this function: function create_widget_taxonomies() If you have PHP skills you'll be able to make this code work. If you need more guidance it's safest to wait for the tutorial where I walk you through it. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!
Hi, thanks for this video. I need some help - I'm looking to design a loan management system website for a client to manage the entire loan process (application to approval). However, I'm unable to find any plugin or theme for the same. Can you pls help me with this?
Hi Rohit, I assume during the loan process the client would have real people reviewing applications and connecting with people who are requesting loans. Is that correct?
Hi Martin, This video shows how to create custom post types which are full pages. I'm not sure what you want to appear in the sidebar? A listing of pages in the custom post type?
Thanks, Bjorn. As usual, a great video. I recently discovered the Toolset plugin, so I would definitely appreciate any other videos you can create. (If you don't have access to the Toolset plugin, I understand and kindly disregard this comment) I'd like to learn how to make one of the fields created to be a linkable link when shared on a website page. Well, at least, that'd be a great start! lol
Hi John, I don't have the premium version of that plugin , but there is a free version that may provide enough to create what you're describing. Just so I understand more clearly, you want to create a custom field with a url in it. Then have that url appear as a clickable link in a page template that site visitors can click. Is that correct?
Yes, that's kinda what I'm after. I'm helping my son with a Real Estate website and I want the address of a home to be clickable so a page with say 10 homes, we could click on the address of one and that would take us to a page with all the particulars of that home. Hopefully, that makes sense. We are not having a problem importing the address via CSV, but then we need that functionality. I can't seem to find an answer anywhere. Thanks!
Hi John, Thanks for the details. What you're describing is possible. One more followup question. The page where the links are being output, is that page a template that you're creating? As in, are you creating a PHP file and writing the PHP code to output the data including the URLs? Are you using a child theme?
Hopefully, this will make things a bit clearer, Bjorn. The page where the links are being output is actually one I am creating using Elementor Page Builder. I am indeed using a child theme of GeneratePress. My son is doing the Toolset part and I'm helping by trying to insert a shortcode. It appears that only a "View" outputs the shortcodes, and that "templates" have no shortcode capability. I just can't locate a solution. Again, thanks Bjorn. If you need more information, let me know and I'll do my best to clarify.
Hi Alvarez there is an Elementor add on (go pro) that allows you to create many different template types (including posts whereas My Templates in Elementor doesn't allow posts). It can be found here www.elementoraddons.com/anywhere-elementor-pro/? hopefully that helps Regards Nickie
can you tel this in wordpress Create a custom WordPress theme with a custom post type that has 4 custom fields: Title, Content, Categories, Tags. Expected behavior: When a user clicks on a category the posts belonging to the category should load via Ajax and should not reload the page. The layout and feel of the custom post type to look like the one in the attached screenshot. You are free to have your own font selections. The custom post type must be created with code and not a plugin.
Hi Marvin, I have two different custom fields tutorials you can check out: 1. Using the advanced custom fields plugin: th-cam.com/video/cUtY_07Q4T0/w-d-xo.html&list=PLlgSvQqMfii43fgFEUia0ooe-7usYdpXc&index=1 2. Using built-in WP Custom fields without a plugin: th-cam.com/video/QwBeyYP99WY/w-d-xo.html&index=1&list=PLlgSvQqMfii4qdGkBEavOHwqRqEzhhk5d I have another one on the way where I show you how to create custom metaboxes inside the WordPress editor without a plugin. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!
Hi Bjorn, I have an idea that I'm sure you know how to solve. Right now, I'm stumped. It has to do with create multiple single and archive php pages for 3 different topics I have: front page articles (fparticles), news articles (articles) and studies (studies). I've seen solution involving if, ifelse and else, to full blown plugins that are over my head (wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/113878/multiple-single-templates). TIA, Dave
Did you sort this out in the end? It seems like you'd be better off adding everything to one blog as normal, but using different categories for each. You can then show a specific category on a specific page. Having said that, the home page should probably just show the most recent posts. So then it would only be two categories: one for news, and another for studies.

Lol, Jesse. I saw something similar whenever someone says I’m good with computers. I saw “I just click the right things in the right order.”
OK so once this is done how do I create a custom post template that has no sidebar?
Note for new viewers: Really starts at 2:22.
He starts out with a verbal introduction and discount pitch. Then he doesn't edit out a blooper when he couldn't find the right theme in the beginning.
Thumbs Up for the code included and video.
Very good and straightforward video!
I managed to set everything up in the first go.
Thanks for the awesome tutorial ;)
