eShop Custom Type plugin for WordPress

Are you frustrated that your eShop doesn’t support your Custom Post Types?

This eShop extension adds support for Custom Post Types. It allows an admin to select exactly which Post types eShop must handle – adding custom types and/or removing default ones (page, and post).

Installation

  1. Upload eshop-custom-types to your blog’s wp-content/plugins directory
  2. Activate the plugin in your Plugin Admin interface
  3. Go to Settings -> eShop Custom Types to add your custom type

Screenshots

1. Using as example a Post Type called Portfolio (it can be whatever type you have created), we see it listed in the select box along with all other WordPress post types. Select the desired custom or default types for eShop to support and save the changes.

2. Edit or create a Custom Type article and see that the eShop Product Entry pane is now showing.

Download

You can get the file here: custom-post-types.zip (v.1.1.1)

    Hi – great plugin. I’m now looking for a way to refine the choice of where the eshop details appear. At the moment we have a choice of posts, pages, cpt’s etc.

    Is there any way we can adapt the code so that eshop product options only appear in posts with a certain category? I’m already using a bit of code that forces the user to choose a category BEFORE the post is created. Ideally, if they choose the “product” category then eshop listing details will appear, but not for normal posts etc???

    Thanks

      You should try asking Esmi and Rich at their forum on quirm.net. My plugin only sets values for the filter that they created.

      Cheers,
      Vinny

        Thanks Vinny – Already asked Esmi but he didn’t think it was possible :(

        Thanks anyway for what you have made possible.
        Cheers
