## Beskriuwing

If you use custom post types, you may wish to display recent posts of a custom type
in place of recent posts on your front page. A common example is showcasing your
portfolio on your front page, with posts being shown elsewhere.

With this plugin, you can select a post type other than “Posts” for the latest posts
shown on the front page.

## Skermôfbyldings

 * Front page post type option in the customizer.

## Ynstallaasje

 1. Take the easy route and install through the WordPress plugin installer, or,
 2. Download the .zip file and upload the unzipped folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory
 3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 4. Go to the static front page section in the customizer, set the front page to show
    the latest posts, and preview the front page to show the front page post type option.

## FAQ

### Where are the options?

Go to the static front page section in the customizer. You need to be previewing
the front page

### Theme doesn’t display correctly with custom post type

Some themes do not account for post types other than `post` in their styles. If 
switching the frot page post type changes the layout, you can try contacting the
theme author and asking them to support other post types as well, or you can restore
the indended styling with custom CSS based on the theme’s styling for `post`s.

The plugin does what it has to do. Do not look for the options in the admin panel
but in the customize front end options.

It is simple and works well. Just go to Customizer > Front page options and select
the post type you want to appear on the front page
