How to declare multiple custom post types in code block for REST API

[jade99]

I'm using this code successfully for one custom post type (CPT). I need to declare multiple CPT's. How do I code this?

 

Additional post types I want to declare:

bible3

worship-help

library-book

/**
  * Add REST API support to an already registered post type.
  */
  add_action( 'init', 'my_custom_post_type_rest_support', 25 );
  function my_custom_post_type_rest_support() {
  	global $wp_post_types;
  
  	//be sure to set this to the name of your post type!
  	$post_type_name = 'planet';
  	if( isset( $wp_post_types[ $post_type_name ] ) ) {
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->show_in_rest = true;
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_base = $post_type_name;
  		$wp_post_types[$post_type_name]->rest_controller_class = 'WP_REST_Posts_Controller';
  	}
  
  }

Other than have a variable using that name, what the h... IS a 'custom post type'?

It's a wordpress post. Not $_POST. Here's the wordpress page on how to register post types.   https://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Types

Once again - a poster should probably mention WORDPRESS when they post in here?

Use the register_post_type() function for any and all post types you're creating. Make sure 'show_in_rest' is set to true in the arguments to make the data available via the WP rest api.
