Custom Post Types

Intensity comes with the Intense shortcodes plugin, which includes many custom post types. Each of these custom post types have their own set of metabox options. You can add new posts much the same as you add a new page.

If the custom post type that you are looking for does not show in the WordPress admin menu, the custom post type may not be active. If this is the case, go into the Intense admin options (Settings->Intense), then to the Custom Post Types tab and make sure that the custom post types that you want to be active are properly checked in the “Active Custom Post Types” list and then save the options.

The list of the included Custom Post Types is to the right (or below on mobile devices). If you want to jump to the screenshot and metabox options information for one of the custom post types, simply click on the name.
