Custom Post Plugin

Creating a separate taxonomy that operates independently from posts has its benefits. This allows you to focus on your posts, specifically writing blog content. It uses Gutenberg instead of the WordPress Classic Editor, and if you’re using Kadence free or pro, you will have access to all of their blocks. This plugin also works with other WordPress themes.

Setting up a custom recipe post type (taxonomy) without using a complicated Custom Post Type UI plugin is very easy. There are a few ways to add custom post types, some being very complicated, but we will cover two simple options.

1. The most straightforward way is to use our simple, lightweight GD Custom Recipe Post type plugin. This can be seen working on our Delicious theme.
2. For a more code-savvy and advanced method, using your function.php or the Code Snippet plugin and adding some long code is a great option. This method can be seen working on the Feastiful website, which uses our Delicious theme. For more information on this method, go to Creating A Separate Taxonomy .

Let’s get started:

Our GD Custom Recipe Post plugin is free forever and very lightweight, so it won’t impact your site’s performance.

Using Our Themes: The plugin would have been available to download to your PC during your purchase at checkout. If you didn’t download it, you can download it from your account when logged in. The Custom Recipe Post Plugin isn’t automatically added when you upload your theme. If you want the predesigned features and readymade content set up for this plugin, you will need to upload it before uploading your theme.

Established Website: If you’re uploading the plugin to an established website, then it will upload without any of our predesigned features or readymade content. Remember to check your Settings > Permalinks to be set at Post Name, cache, and refresh your website.

You will need to create your categories as you would with posts, and they can be customized using the Kadence customizer.

For caching your website, we suggest using LiteSpeed Caching, which is free forever and should be used if your server uses it. If your server doesn’t use LiteSpeed, an alternative is to use FlyingPress. Unfortunately, there is no free version, but it is worth every penny.
