Support for Custom Post Types

[SiobhyB]

In a review of mobile feedback from the past six months (p77Llu-9N5-p2), support for custom post types was a common request.

Portfolios, in particular, are popular and it would be convenient for users who keep a portfolio-based site to be able to manage it directly from the app.

The iOS version of this request is available at wordpress-mobile/WordPress-iOS#500.

I can not see the Portfolio section and that is a huge mistake since my blogs are only portfolio.

It's super. Plain, easy and super. One request only: custom post types guys. Nowadays, it's not just posts and pages. If you give content access to custom post types, would boost the functionality 100%! Keep the awesome work guys!

Think it is a good app. Works fine in itself. What I personally would like to see added is the ability to also create custom post types in the app. For my website I use custom post types, but they cannot be created from the app. There is only the possibility to create the standard messages from the app.

Agreed this is a huge setback for the wordpress mobile apps. A bunch of customers have found this app in the app store and asked med about if they can use it with the sites we've set up for them. Always a huge bummer to have to tell them "No... It's a great app but it doesn't work for anything besides editing pages and standard posts on your site.". And they've hired us for the very reason of creating the custom post/taxonomy structure and we teach them to only use the custom post types.

This has been on the radar here on github for at least 7 years now. IMHO it should be prioritized as blocking, or at least realized that it's the main reason that people aren't using the mobile apps, even when they really want to.

When CPT will be supported?

Nice and easy, but portfolio pages aren't showing as a section which are the central part of my eris theme.

It should contains custom posts and metabox when editing/adding them.

All that's missing is the option of Posts Types created in wordpress, as it only allows me to create a standard post.
