Title: Post Type Archive Descriptions Author: mrwweb Published: 22. Mai 2015 Last modified: 20. Oktober 2023 --- Plugins durchsuchen ![](https://ps.w.org/post-type-archive-descriptions/assets/banner-772x250.png?rev =1165955) Dieses Plugin **ist nicht mit den jüngsten 3 Hauptversionen von WordPress** getestet worden. Es wird möglicherweise nicht mehr gewartet oder unterstützt und kann Kompatibilitätsprobleme haben, wenn es mit neueren Versionen von WordPress verwendet wird. ![](https://ps.w.org/post-type-archive-descriptions/assets/icon.svg?rev=2981804) # Post Type Archive Descriptions Von [mrwweb](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mrwweb/) [Herunterladen](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/post-type-archive-descriptions.1.5.0.zip) * [Details](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-archive-descriptions/#description) * [Rezensionen](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-archive-descriptions/#reviews) * [Installation](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-archive-descriptions/#installation) * [Entwicklung](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-archive-descriptions/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/post-type-archive-descriptions/) ## Beschreibung Enables an editable description to display on post type archive pages. Show the description with WordPress’s `the_archive_description()` function that also displays taxonomy term descriptions. Will work automatically with many themes, including most default WordPress themes. **Translations:** Archive descriptions are translatable via [Polylang](https://wordpress.org/plugins/polylang/), [WPML (affiliate link)](https://wpml.org/?aid=255503&affiliate_key=8ZIRtAbJbX4x&dr=post-type-archive-descriptions-plugin), and [qTranslate-X](https://wordpress.org/plugins/qtranslate-x/). **The Events Calendar:** The archive description is automatically added above the Events Bar when using the latest templates from [The Events Calendar](https://wordpress.org/plugins/the-events-calendar/). Filter the location of the description or disable it entirely with the `ptad_tribe_template_before_include` filter. #### Other Plugins by MRWweb * [MRW Simplified Editor](https://wordpress.org/plugins/mrw-web-design-simple-tinymce/)– Get rid of bad and obscure TinyMCE buttons. Move the rest to a single top row. * [Post Status Menu Items](https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-status-menu-items/)– Adds post status links–e.g. „Draft“ (7)–to post type admin menus. * [Hawaiian Characters](https://wordpress.org/plugins/hawaiian-characters/) – Adds the correct characters with diacriticals to the WordPress editor Character Map for Hawaiian ## Screenshots * [[ * The editing interface for writing a post type archive description. This plugin adds the „Archive Description“ link in the left menu, the „View Books Archive“ link in the admin bar, and, of course, the field to save the description. * [[ * The post type archive description displayed (automatically!) in the Twenty Fifteen theme. The plugin also adds the „Edit Books Description“ link in the Admin Bar. ## Installation 1. From your WordPress site’s dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New. 2. Search for „Post Type Archive Descriptions.“ 3. Click „Install.“ 4. Click „Activate.“ 5. Depending on your theme, you may need to add `the_archive_description()` to your templates in order for it to work. ## FAQ ### Is this plugin compatible with WordPress 5.0 / „Gutenberg“? Yes. The plugin does not directly integrate with the post editor screen so no changes were required. Be aware that as of 5 Dec 2019, it [appears the Twenty Nineteen theme will _not_ support post type archive descriptions by default](https://github.com/WordPress/twentynineteen/issues/256). Unless something changes, you will need to manually add support for them in a child theme if using Twenty Nineteen. See the next FAQ for how to do that. ### How do I display a custom post type’s description? Use [`the_archive_description()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/the_archive_description/) or [`get_the_archive_description()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_the_archive_description/). Chances are you want this in the `archive-{post_type_slug}.php` or `archive.php` template files. As of v1.3.0 of this plugin, the archive description is automatically added to The Events Calendar archive pages using the plugin’s latest design. ### Which post types get a description? By default, any custom post type excluding Posts and Pages that was registered with`' has_archive' => true`. There is a filter (see below) to add support for _any_ post type. ### How do I set up an editable description for my Blog / Posts? Since this plugin does not support descriptions for Posts or Pages, I recommend a different approach. First make the blog page (aka the „Page for Posts“) editable with this snippet in` functions.php` or an `mu-plugin`: ``` add_filter( 'replace_editor', 'ptad_enable_gutenberg_editor_for_blog_page', 10, 2 ); /** * Simulate non-empty content to enable Gutenberg editor on the Blog page * * @param bool $replace Whether to replace the editor. * @param WP_Post $post Post object. * @return bool * * @see https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/350563/9844 */ function ptad_enable_gutenberg_editor_for_blog_page( $replace, $post ) { if ( ! $replace && absint( get_option( 'page_for_posts' ) ) === $post->ID && empty( $post->post_content ) ) { // This comment will be removed by Gutenberg since it won't parse into block. $post->post_content = ''; } return $replace; } ``` Then output that content on the blog page with the `home.php` template: ``` echo '
' . apply_filters( 'the_content', get_the_content( null, false, (int) get_option( 'page_for_posts' ) ) ) . '
'; ``` ### Are there filters & actions to modify the plugin? Yes. Plenty! Filters: * `ptad_post_types` – specify the post types with a description (default is all non-built_in post types where `has_archive` is true) * `ptad_admin_title` – Modify admin page title * `ptad_admin_parent` – Change parent page of the Description edit page * `ptad_menu_label` – Modify the menu item label in the admin * `ptad_description_capability` – Set capability of who can edit descriptions. Default: `edit_posts` * `ptad_edit_description_link` – Modify admin bar link to edit the description * `ptad_view_archive_link` – Modify admin bar link to view the post type archive * `ptad_tribe_template_before_include` – Modify which The Events Calendar template part the description should appear _before_, or `false` to disable automatic output. Actions: * `ptad_before_editor` – Between title and description editor for ALL admin pages. Receives `$post_type` arg. * `ptad_before_editor_{post_type}` – Between title and description editor for any specific post type. * `ptad_after_editor` – Immediately below description editor for ALL admin pages. Receives `$post_type` arg. * `ptad_after_editor_{post_type}` – Immediately below description editor for any specific post type. ## Rezensionen ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0e7fb415254fa39bd584bf81285b2fe816a98926ac75a2369e52f8457b31891b? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Still works with WP6.3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/still-works-with-wp6-3/)󠁿 [meeee2](https://profiles.wordpress.org/majdaly/) 19. Oktober 2023 1 Antwort I almost didn’t try this plugin because of the notice that it hasn’t been tested with the latest versions. Glad I did because it works great – does exactly what it says and is easy to use 🙂 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7361d1340007537f6c441e5be20c41911382de9b2d55ef47bd7e8daaa46ffec1? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Fantastic, saved me a lot of work](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fantastic-saved-me-a-lot-of-work/)󠁿 [Christian Saborio](https://profiles.wordpress.org/christian-saborio/) 1. April 2019 1 Antwort This is such an elegant way to present your users with the option of editing the text of your archives. I simply installed it and after modifying my theme a bit, I was up and running. Fantastic idea, thank you and keep up the good work! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e375f8b274badb1c1c5d360299feaba06ec1658a48a3fe983d77ca149b93b15c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Nice one](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-one-248/)󠁿 [certainlyakey](https://profiles.wordpress.org/certainlyakey/) 18. Januar 2018 A useful and well implemented plugin. If you’re going to use any other post-type global fields it’s better to replace this plugin with a custom field and put all of those on a single options page, but otherwise it does its job well. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/eb3d4ebde3728a2b46f1061572466fa10dc909fa076e1b3dc4bb12fbe96cbeb7? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin with an intuitive UI.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-with-an-intuitive-ui/)󠁿 [arrubakook](https://profiles.wordpress.org/arrubakook/) 19.
