POWERFUL PHP API, SIMPLE GUI FOR NON-CODERS
If you're an experienced PHP developer, you'll appreciate Types comprehensive PHP API and documentation.
Types and the other Toolset plugins let you build complete sites without coding.
- Views - a powerful content display engine
- CRED - front-end form builder for content creation and editing
- Access - roles and access control management
The full Toolset package lets you build complete WordPress sites from within the admin dashboard.
CUSTOM FIELDS FOR CONTENT AND USERS
Types lets you add custom fields for both posts (meaning, WordPress posts, pages and custom content types), as well as users. You can add any field types to different user profiles.
ACCESS CONTROL FOR FIELDS
Using Access, you will be able to control what fields different users can edit and view. This way, you can make some field groups read-only for certain users, and fully-editable for other users.
For example, when you build a membership site, the site admin will be able to change membership levels for everyone and users will see their membership fields as read-only.
DESIGN CUSTOM FIELDS WITH EASE
Types fields come with a built-in CSS editor, letting you design how fields appear in the WordPress admin. You can design both full-edit and read-only field display modes.
