Displaying Custom Post Types in Widgets
You will notice that there is a default widget in WordPress to display recent posts, but it does not allow you to choose a custom post type.
What if you wanted to display the latest entries from your newly created post type in a widget? There is an easy way to do this.
The first thing you need to do is install and activate the Custom Post Type Widgets plugin. For more details, see our step-by-step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.
