Description
The Custom Post Types addon adds to GeoDirectory the ability to create multiple listing types under their own custom post types, going beyond the default “Places” type that ships in the directory core. Each CPT created gets its own form builder, with independent custom fields, prices, categories and tags, which separates distinct segments within the same directory without mixing taxonomies.
Main Features of Custom Post Types
- Unlimited CPT creation
Adds as many custom post types as the directory needs, in addition to the default Places. - Form builder per type
Each CPT has its own form builder, with custom fields defined separately. - Independent categories and tags
Splits taxonomies by listing type, avoiding shared categories between different segments. - Listings without a physical location
Allows building directories of websites or online services that don’t depend on an address. - Parameters and pricing per CPT
Configures features, pricing fields and rules in isolation for each post type.
Benefits of Custom Post Types
- Management of large directories
Organizes extensive, varied collections without overloading a single content structure. - Clear segmentation for visitors
Visitors browse through coherent sections, with filters and fields relevant to each segment. - Less configuration rework
Adjustments made to one type don’t affect the others, reducing field and taxonomy conflicts. - Niche scaling on the same site
New segments go live by reusing the directory’s already installed base.
Who Is Custom Post Types For?
- Anyone maintaining a local directory with very different segments, such as restaurants, real estate and events.
- You who already use GeoDirectory and need your own fields and categories for each listing type.
- Anyone who wants to publish a directory of websites, online services or professionals with no physical address attached.
How to Download Custom Post Types
Custom Post Types is available for download here at Ultrapack. The step-by-step guide to installing this file is in the How to install tab, next to the description. Once activated, the new post types are created and configured within the GeoDirectory panel.
By splitting the directory into distinct post types, each with its own form, fields and taxonomies, Custom Post Types turns a single-listing site into a multi-segment structure. It’s the component suited for anyone who has outgrown a single content category and needs to keep each niche with its own rules, its own fields and its own navigation, without duplicating installations or improvising generic taxonomies.
