[Resolved] Adding columns to your custom post type

[Quested]

Hi
I want to add columns to my custom post type. I tried many times but its not working. Custom Post Type archive name is Projects.

I already gone through this article. https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-columns-in-the-blog/#adding-columns-to-your-custom-post-type

Kindly help.

Humble Regards

Hi there,

Try this PHP snippet:

add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns', function( $columns ) {
    if ( 'projects' === get_post_type() && ! is_singular() ) {
        return true;
    }

    return $columns;
} );

Make sure you’ve set the column setting at customizer > layout > blog.

You can check the Theme Editor.
I added the code again.

You can add or edit the code. You have full control.

I want to add same 3 columns to my another custom post type. Custom Post Type archive name is Buyer Guides.
I have given you full access to check the code in Theme Editor. You can make the changes required.

Change this code:

add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns', function( $columns ) {
    if ( 'review' === get_post_type() && ! is_singular() ) {
        return true;
    }

    return $columns;
} );

to this code:

add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns', function( $columns ) {
    if ( ( 'review' === get_post_type() || 'buyer-guides' === get_post_type() ) && ! is_singular() ) {
        return true;
    }

    return $columns;
} );
