Add new Custom Post Type 'Portfolio'

[ryanlabelle]

Can we create a new custom post type and also taxonomy when plugin is activated? Here is our existing code for that:

//-----------------------------------------------------
// themo_portfolio_custom_post_type
// Create a Custom Post Type for the Portfolio
//-----------------------------------------------------

if ( ! function_exists('themo_portfolio_custom_post_type') ) {

// Register Custom Post Type
    function themo_portfolio_custom_post_type() {

        $labels = array(
            'name'                => _x( 'Projects', 'Post Type General Name', 'themovation-custom-post-types' ),
            'singular_name'       => _x( 'Project', 'Post Type Singular Name', 'themovation-custom-post-types' ),
            'menu_name'           => __( 'Portfolio', 'themovation-custom-post-types' ),
            'parent_item_colon'   => __( 'Parent Project:', 'themovation-custom-post-types' ),

Implemented in 2f7627073c7f5dafd9b16be427740d3c188c2a93.

@ryanlabelle the code above uses 'menu_position' => 99,. This places the Portfolio at the bottom of the menu. We could place it below Posts or Pages. What do you think?

[ryanlabelle]

Sounds great. :)

Updated in 1040529e1da42e068656244a69c38f0efe75c2c2.

I moved Portfolio below Posts. In addition I gave it the dashicons-portfolio icon. Hope that's ok. Ref: https://developer.wordpress.org/resource/dashicons/#portfolio
