When I first released the Custom Content Portfolio (CCP) plugin a couple of years ago, it was just a simple plugin that registered a post type and a taxonomy. It did pretty much what 99% of all other portfolio implementations done. It didn’t bring anything new to the table.
And, to be honest, I haven’t seen much else in the way of innovation in the space since then.
Version 1.0.0 of CCP seeks to change all that.
The new version
I want CCP to be the portfolio plugin of choice for everyone. If you’re a theme developer and have any type of portfolio stuff as part of your theme design, do your users a favor and integrate with this plugin.
In this version, I went all out and built a complete portfolio solution that should satisfy anyone’s needs. And, if it doesn’t, it’s extremely easy to extend for plugin and theme developers.
Here’s a list of a few features:
- Should work relatively well with most themes out of the box.
- Custom permalink settings.
- Stick projects to the top of the portfolio page.
- Author archives.
- Categories taxonomy.
- Tags taxonomy.
- Support for audio, gallery, image, and video post formats.
- Project URL field.
- Project client field.
- Project location field.
- Project start and date fields.
- Basic template hierarchy for themes to use.
- Full compliment of template tags for themes.
The plugin also follows the Content Type Standards project, which is created and maintained by various members of the WordPress development community. This means that you can switch between any portfolio plugins that follow the standards without losing data.
