Toolset is a suite of plugins for WordPress that allows users to build custom post types, custom fields, and custom taxonomies, as well as design templates for custom post types and display custom post type data on the front-end of a WordPress site. We have built custom post types (CPT) via a custom plugin; and we have used the freely available plugin “CPT UI” but we have gravitated to using Toolset to make the most of its features.

Toolset can be used to build custom websites, directories, classifieds, directories of businesses or people, and many other types of websites. It is particularly useful for developers who want to create custom functionality for WordPress sites without having to write custom code. Some of the features of the Toolset plugins include the ability to create custom post types and taxonomies, create custom fields and forms, design templates for custom post types, and display custom post type data on the front-end of a WordPress site using shortcodes or custom PHP code.
