Front Page Custom Post Type

Beskrywing

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.

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 posts.

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.
