Custom post types are same like posts and pages. By default WordPress comes with a few different post types which are all stored in the database under the wp_posts table.

Default Post Types

• Posts
• Pages
• Attachments
• Revisions
• Navigation Menus
• Custom CSS
• Changesets

We can create your own custom post types and call them whatever we want. On below example we register a post type ‘events’ with an array of arguments. These arguments are the options of our custom post type. Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (or active theme).
