The Church Content WordPress plugin provides an interface for managing sermons, events, people and locations. Please be aware that a compatible theme is required for presenting content from these church-centric post types in a tightly-integrated manner.
Who this is for
This plugin is intended for a very specific audience. If you are not one of the following then this plugin will not be useful to you.
- Users of official themes from ChurchThemes.com
- Users of third-party themes made specifically for this plugin
- Theme developers improving data portability for church sites
What it does
It provides post types, taxonomies and fields for sermons, events, people and locations to be shown by a compatible church WordPress theme.
Experienced WordPress developers agree that functionality like this does not belong in themes since themes are intended only for controlling the appearance of a WordPress site. Content that users might expect to take with them if they switch themes should “live” in a plugin in order to avoid theme lock-in. Similarly, our approach is not to present content using the plugin since themes offer more control for that purpose. This is why a compatible theme is required.
See the Plugin Details on ChurchThemes.com for a tour of features. Read the User Guide for instructions.
