Develop Your First WordPress Plugin

Cet atelier pratique est COMPLET.

Since WordPress 3.0, Custom Post Types have enabled developers to create numerous plugins that extend the platform beyond basic posts and pages. In this workshop, you will learn how to develop your own WordPress plugin by leveraging Custom Post Types. This session will cover all aspects of working with CPTs including programatically creating new post types, adding new sections to the post type editor, interacting with custom fields through code, displaying new posts on a site, customizing the custom post list page columns and more.
