Beskrivelse
SuperLight CPT Manager is a minimalist WordPress plugin that lets administrators create Custom Post Types without clutter or bloat.
Each CPT automatically:
-
Registers itself with WordPress (visible in menus and REST API)
-
Supports basic post features (title, editor, thumbnail, excerpt)
-
Comes with a unique shortcode (e.g.
[superlight_cpt slug="book"])
There are no extra scripts, no custom tables, and no unnecessary settings — just pure, clean functionality in under 200 lines of PHP.
Features
-
Add, import/export, or delete custom post types on the fly
-
Each post type gets its own shortcode
-
Works instantly with Query Loop and block editors (
show_in_restenabled) -
All CPTs stored in a single WordPress option (
superlight_cpts) -
No dependencies, no setup, no nonsense

FAQ
-
Why aren’t my CPTs showing in the Query Loop or block editor?
-
Version 1.2 and later registers CPTs with
show_in_rest => true, so they appear in Gutenberg and block-based queries. -
Does it create new database tables?
-
No. All CPT definitions are saved as one serialized option in the database.
-
What’s the shortcode format?
-
Use
[superlight_cpt slug="your_post_type_slug"]— it will automatically list posts of that type. -
Can I customize the output?
-
Yes, you can use a Query Loop block to have total control over the output. You can also override the shortcode loop template directly in your theme if desired, or edit the plugin’s shortcode function.
-
Does it work with existing CPTs?
-
Superlight CPT’s custom posts types will not interfere with existing post types. If a Custom Post Type with the same slug already exists, SuperLight CPT Manager will not override it. Disable the existing CPT registration source to migrate ownership.
