oik-types does not define any shortcodes of its own. You simply use the shortcodes from oik and oik-fields
- action "oik_types_box"
- action "oik_fie_edit_field_options"
- action "oik_fie_edit_field_type_$type"
- filter "oik_query_field_types"
- Upload the contents of the oik-types plugin to the `/wp-content/plugins/oik-types' directory
- Activate the oik-types plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
- Note: oik-types is dependent upon the oik base plugin and the oik-fields plugin.
If you don't install and activate the oik-fields plugin then oik-types won't be called to apply changes to the post type registrations.
To help you define custom content for your website without having to write any code.
oik-types does not create any tables of its own. It records the information in structured arrays in the wp_options table.
- bw_types contains the manually defined custom post types
- bw_fields contains the manually defined custom fields
- bw_f2ts contains the Fields to Types relationships
- bw_x2ts contains the Taxonomies to Types relationships
Each instance of a custom post type is created in the wp_posts table Each instance of a custom field for a custom post type is created in the wp_postmeta table Each instance of a custom taxonomy is created in the wp_taxonomy and related tables

- userref - oik-user
This plugin is dependent upon the oik-fields plugin and the oik base plugin.
Yes. Through the oik-plugins website or GitHub.
Yes, it can. But I wouldn't recommend it.
Yes. You can use it to override the definition of existing (custom) post types. You can add fields but you can't remove them.
No... but there could be as it's just a case of exporting the data from wp_options using an "Export/import options plugin."
