[Plugin: WP Post Type UI] Post Type Capability and Taxonomies are broken after update

  • After the update the taxonomies weren’t attached to the post type and I couldn’t edit older entries of the post types I’ve created with this plugin.

    Here is the fix for the PHP File:
    replace register_post_type(…) with register_post_type(strtolower($post_type['labels']['name']), $post_type);

    Edit the database:
    Replace the capitals with lower-case characters in post_type column.

  • Hey Ralf; the first part makes sense to me as I’ve had similar problems before. But what do you mean in the second part by “edit the database”? Are you talking something GUI-y, as in through the WP backend or the plugin’s interface? Or something more tech-y, along the lines of PHP myAdmin, etc.?

    Hi rafegoldberg,

    Here is an example, you’ve created a custom post type named ‘Books’,
    in the database in the column for post_type in wp_posts there stands also ‘Books’ but it has to be ‘books’ instead of ‘Books’.

    You can change that width phpMyAdmin, it should look sth like that.

    update wp_posts set post_type = replace(post_type,’Books’,’books’);
