Works Custom Post Type

A CPT for showing projects and contributions made by developer

Description

This WordPress plugin registers a custom post type called Works for showing projects and contributions made by developer, making it easy to create an impressive portfolio website. It also registers separate custom taxonomies called work category, tech stack & work organization.

This plugin doesn't change how work items are displayed in your theme. You will need to add templates for archive-work.php and single-work.php, if you want to customize the display of work items.
