This was just merged into Gutenberg trunk, and it’s a much bigger deal than it looks 👇
WordPress is getting a native UI to create custom post types.
No code. No plugins.
Just:
Settings → Post Types → Add
That might sound small… it’s not.
Custom post types go from “developer feature” → “everyday user feature”
Which means:
• Better structured content from day one
• Easier onboarding
• Less plugin dependency
• A cleaner foundation for AI to understand your site
And this is just the start.
Post types → taxonomies → …you can probably guess what comes next
You can see where this is heading…
WordPress is becoming a powerful content modelling system 👀
