Add Genesis Custom Post Type Archive Settings

August 30, 2016 by

I had to avoid a long title because the actual topic is even longer:

How to add Genesis custom post type archive settings when you used a plugin to create the CPT(s).

In this case, the site is using Types and was used to create four CPTs, kill the default taxonomies, and create categories specific to each CPT. There is no way in the plugin to add support for genesis-cpt-archives-settings so there was no Archive Settings item in the CPT.

Between a support topic for the plugin and my own fixes, I was able to create a solution for my client site, so I share it with you.

add_action('init', 'cpt_archive_custom_init');
function cpt_archive_custom_init() {
//Construct an array of Post Types
$types = array('type1', 'type2', 'type3', 'type4',);
//Do a foreach (run the action over each single result of the above array)
foreach ( $types as $type ) {
add_post_type_support( $type, 'genesis-cpt-archives-settings' );
}
}
