It would be nice if you can set the capability for taxonomies

Will add that to my issue related to capabilities management for post types. Get both at the same time.

I am also with tschellhorn’s suggestion! I wish the comment can do a +1

When I change the color scheme in the admin, I see that since the icon is svg, the color stays white, and does not take on the color scheme of the admin. I suggest we go with a dashicon for consistency. I’ve been using dashicons-external.

Definitely seeing the hover issue now, but I’m not sure dashicons-external is the best fit for this, at least compared to the newest one which is pretty representative of UI which is our focus in many ways.

Opening an issue to explore solutions of some sort for this.

The WP API opens a lot of custom client opportunities. Is there something you can add to the admin pages to help with syntax? The left side of that page is sparse. If the user enables REST and optionally a BASE, show some canned examples for the current type.

Better yet, add a page for custom post type API testing. Let the user select a post type that is REST enabled, ask them for filters like posts_per_page or orderby, and show the necessary syntax and a result of the query.

billjwolff, is this meant for setting up things/snippets for separate sites? Inside the CPTUI powered site, generate some code that can be used to fetch selected data content from within other non-CPTUI powered site?

Yes, especially mobile apps that use WordPress as the CMS.

A WordPress developer might also create custom pages that are JavaScript centric and want to get post data without a postback.

Noted down.

Would be great if we could change some default WP field. Wanting to change the description and add a ‘hint’ in the Title.

ie. Want to say “Title is for record only and is not included in your post”

Not quite following some of what you’re referring to ajamm. Could you clarify for me, please?

Add an option under labels to change the placeholder text for the “Title” field.

If there is text, you can use the “enter_title_here” filter in WP to change the text for the CPT.

Noted down, Dave.

The ability to delete multiple CPT’s or taxonomies at once..
We use a default installation with multiple CPT’s allready created and delete the ones we don’t use for the project.
