This plugin adds support for special content types in your website, such as a portfolio, features, and slides. It also contains a shortcode pack with over 30+ shortcodes and 5 useful widgets.
== Description ==
**NOTE: This plugin is meant for use with the WordPress themes developed by [CPOThemes](http://cpothemes.com) themes, which take advantage of it to add richer content areas and designs. Check them out!**
This plugin include 3 major components :
* Content Types
* Shortcodes
* Widgets
= Content Types =
This plugin will add seven custom post types to your site: slides, features, portfolios, services, team members, testimonials and clients. You can still use CPO Companion for any WordPress theme, although you will have to create your own page templates.
**Highlights**
* Only the content types supported by the current WordPress theme will be shown, to avoid crowding your admin menu. You can still override this and show any content types if you want.
* This plugin is perfectly compatible with any theme: you will be able to manage your content just fine. However, there are no templates included and it is up to the theme to handle them.
* The portfolio post type included here is different from other portfolio plugins, and can be used in conjunction with them. For instance, you can still use JetPack portfolios at the same time.
= Shortcodes =
By installing this plugin, you will be able to embed all sorts of interactive elements onto your pages: **buttons, accordions, slideshows, and even pricing tables**. By using these elements, you can make your content way more appealing and boost your conversions.
