Query All The Post Types is a lightweight developer tool that auto-detects<\/strong> every registered post type on your WordPress site and displays comprehensive information about each one.<\/p>\n\n

Post types are automatically grouped by origin \u2014 no configuration required.<\/p>\n\n

WooCommerce store owners:<\/strong> All your WooCommerce post types (products, orders, coupons, subscriptions, etc.) are grouped in a dedicated purple WooCommerce tab<\/strong> for easy access.<\/p>\n\n

        1. Upload the query-all-the-post-types<\/code> folder to \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code><\/li>\n
        2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu<\/li>\n
        3. Navigate to Tools > Query Post Types<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
          \n

          How does the plugin detect post types?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          It uses the WordPress core function get_post_types()<\/code> to retrieve all registered post types at runtime. Nothing is hardcoded \u2014 any post type registered by any plugin, theme, or WordPress core will appear automatically.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          Where do I find the plugin page?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          Go to Tools > Query Post Types<\/strong> in your WordPress admin dashboard.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          I updated and can't find the plugin anymore!<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          In version 2.0, the plugin moved from its own top-level admin menu to the Tools<\/strong> menu. Look for Tools > Query Post Types<\/strong>.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          Why don't I see View All \/ Add New buttons on some post types?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          These buttons only appear for post types that have show_ui<\/code> set to true<\/code>. Internal post types without an admin interface won't have these action buttons.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          Where are my WooCommerce post types?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          Look for the purple WooCommerce tab<\/strong>! All WooCommerce-related post types (products, orders, coupons, subscriptions, etc.) are grouped there for easy access. The tab only appears when WooCommerce is active.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          Can I use this on a production site?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          Yes. The plugin is read-only and doesn't modify any data. It only displays information about registered post types.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          Does this plugin work with multisite?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          Yes. Each site in a multisite network will display its own registered post types.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
