I know I posted another question regarding taxonomy and maybe this question is similar. I’m wondering if people can give me their opinion on the benefits of custom post types. The reason I ask is because I’m arguing with someone who suggests that just using tags is “easier” for the user instead of having fields to fill in. In other words, they’re arguing that it’s easier for the person updating Wordpress to use tags instead of filling out custom fields within custom post types.
This may be true (not likely) but I’d like to better understand all the virtues of custom post types and fields. I need to better explain it to someone.
Thanks in advance.
