The Custom Post Type Date Archives plugin for WordPress is designed to facilitate the management of date archives for custom post types directly from the dashboard. This free plugin enhances productivity by adding a submenu for each custom post type, complete with necessary rewrite rules for viewing archives at user-friendly permalinks. This feature is particularly beneficial for websites that rely on event management or similar functionalities.

In addition to the core functionalities, the plugin includes widgets and editor blocks that allow users to display archives, calendars, and recent posts seamlessly. It supports the publication of scheduled posts with future dates just like standard posts and provides compatibility with theme template files for custom post type date archives. With added WP Rest API endpoints for archives and calendar features, this plugin streamlines the process of managing and displaying content effectively.
