Custom Post Types on Page Template – Frontend

[Klame]

Hi,

I’m trying to make custom post type with Kleo.
I have created a code in functions.php, and it’s shown in the dashboard whit meta-boxes etc.

But how do I get the data shown in front-end – On a subpage/page template?

I tried to take a existing page-template from kleo, added it to child-kleo/page-templates, and added this code:

COPY CODE

<?php
	$args array ('post_type' => 'coevents');
	
	$query = new WP_Query($args);
		while($query -> have_posts()) : $query -> the_post();
	?>
	
	<div class="event-titel">
	<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
	</div>
	<?php endwhile; ?>

But then I get a PHP-error, seems like it dosen’t like the array…

Furthermore this custom post type should be what the user creates, when he goes under “my articles” (using social articles plugin)
Have looked/googled at this part so much yet, that I want the front-end done first.
Is this simple to accomplish?

I dont think Social Articles supports CPTs. I could be wrong. If not, take a look at this one: http://buddydev.com/buddypress/reintroducing-buddyblog-supporting-custom-post-typestaxonomies-for-buddypress-user-blogs/

As far as templates go… not sure why you’re creating a page template. Looks like you just want a listing of all the posts for that CPT. If that’s the case, then you want to copy /kleo/archive.php to /kleo-child/archive-{cpt-name}.php

Then, if you want a custom page to display that actual post, then you can do the same with single.php.

Its all in the codex: https://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Type_Templates
