What’s new in Admin Columns Pro - Toolset Types 1.8
Version 1.8 · Mar 22, 2022
Latest
- FixedDependency: Requires Admin Columns Pro 5.7.
What it does
Toolset Types is a common way to build custom post types, fields and taxonomies, but the default WordPress list screens show little of that custom data. To check or change a field value, you usually have to open each entry one at a time. On a site with many records, that gets slow. This extension brings Types fields onto the overview pages as columns, so you can read your custom content in a structured table without clicking into individual items.
It works as an add-on to Admin Columns Pro, which the extension depends on, and it builds on Toolset Types rather than replacing it. It covers Types fields for posts, taxonomies and users, including repeating fields. Once a field is a column, you can sort by it, narrow results with filters and edit values directly from the list. Columns can be reordered and shown or hidden with drag and drop, so each screen shows the information you care about.
Best for
- Sites built with Toolset Types custom post types and fields
- Admin Columns Pro users managing large amounts of custom content
- Agencies maintaining data-heavy client sites with custom fields
Features
Support for Toolset Types fields
Works with custom post types, taxonomies and fields created in Toolset Types, making that custom data available on your admin overview pages.
Custom fields as columns
Add any Types field as a column in your WordPress admin lists to see custom content in a clear, table style layout.
Inline editing
Change field values right from the overview page with a click, so you do not need to open each item individually to update it.
Sorting by custom fields
Sort your admin lists by any custom field column to bring the entries you are looking for to the top.
Filtering results
Use filters on custom field columns to narrow long lists down to just the entries that match what you need.
Drag and drop column management
Rearrange column order and choose which columns are visible through a drag and drop interface on each list screen.
Repeating field support
Handles more complex Types field setups such as repeating fields, so those values can also appear and be managed in columns.
Posts, taxonomies and users
Covers Types fields attached to posts, taxonomies and users, giving you column control across these different admin screens.
