Press Items Plugin

Welcome to the Press Items Plugin, a custom plugin for managing press items in WordPress. This plugin allows you to create and manage press items with specific fields and categories.

Installation

The zipped plugin can be downloaded directly from the latest release file here

Getting Started

The plugin creates a new CPT called Press Items with a Press Type category

A press item could be either internal or external:

• Internal: Have blocks stored in the page content and doesn't have a Press Link
• External: Doesn't need block content, but must have a Press Link

NOTE: When an external press item is visited, it will be redirected to the external source

Editing a Press Item

The press item information must be added in the item sidebar

All press items require: content and outlet. The excerpt, cover image, author, and link are optional

IMPORTANT: If the press item is external, the link is required and the content is optional

If required fields are missing, the press item can't be saved

Press Item Template

The plugin creates a Singles Press template to show the internal press items

It also adds a some patterns that can be added anywhere

Press Release fields Block

The pattern uses a new block "Press Release fields" to show either the Press Outlet or the Press Author

This block allows the addition of Prefix and Suffix

The block works with the new no-reload query option
