So I have created a custom taxonomy and two custom post types and each of these custom post types should be able to be part of a taxonomy term. Right now to add more terms I have to go to the tab beneath the custom post types. I would like to have a menu tab that's visible right away, not hidden beneath the CPT, and I only want one place where you can add more terms to my taxonomy. Is this possible with a plugin or can I easily extend the admin interface?
You can extend the admin interface by creating your own plugin. Check out the plugin handbook to learn more about it. In particular have a look at the administration menus sections.
Use plugin Custom Post Type UI. This has many features available

I have a problem that hopefully you will help me solve.
I'm am pretty new with this job and don't know pretty much anything about coding yet. I built some websites using Elementor but never touched WooCommerce before and now I am working on a real estate website with lots of houses uplouded as a Custom Post Type (which I will call "ANN").
My problem is: my client wants to have a live catalogue of the selling houses for ADS and stuff.
Searching the Web I figured out that WooCommerce is the best way to do it even if I don't need the shopping cart (if you have other ideas are welcome) but as far as I understand WC have ITS OWN CPT "Product" and I wonder how canI set it to use my ANN instead of PRODUCT to the listing?
Is that possible?
The main problem is that there are lots of real estate ads already uplouded so change them is a no go.
I'm using JetEngine plugin for the CPT, Filters, etc.. if this can help somehow.
Thank you for you time!
You could achieve that with the Advanced Custom Fields plugin, but you're gonna need elementor pro.
You can create all the additional fields for the information you need to be displayed in that post type using ACF.
See this link for more information: Creating a Field Group
Make sure your custom post type supports custom fields, if you created it with the CPT UI plugin, you can check that by editing your custom post type and scrolling all the way down. You should see a section with a list of things supported by your custom post type, check custom fields and save.
Then create a template for the custom post type using Elementor's theme builder: How to Create a WordPress Single-Post Template in Elementor
Add the custom fields to the template using the ACF integration with Elementor: Elementor Integration With ACF
Lastly, create a custom loop for your custom post type archive using the Elementor custom skin plugin, so yiu can display the custom fields also in the archive if you need to:

Is there any option? So I can add an option on any custom post via WordPress customization? Actually, I added a custom post on my WordPress theme. Here user needs to add font awesome icon. But I do not want to add option tree metabox and not a custom field. A user will not remember different custom field. So Is there any option?
At some level you are going to end up adding something like a custom field to your post. However, I agree that the user interface for custom fields is clunky and non-intuitive. I agree with you that making an end-user use that would be a bad idea.
Instead, I would recommend using the Advanced Custom Fields plugin. It enables you to add meta-data to posts, pages and/or custom post types. It's extremely flexible, intuitively designed and well-documented.
ACF permits you to place your custom field in a variety of places on the Add Post (or custom post) page: just below the visual editor window, on the right with the meta-boxes, or in a meta-box.

I am really working hard to get a specific Post view in my Wordpress blog.
Example
Click http://theunlockr.com/roms/
Then Click http://theunlockr.com/roms/android-roms/
Then CLick http://theunlockr.com/roms/android-roms/asus-roms/
I figured that this is a nested view of categories and subcategories and finally the post in the respective category.
Need some input on how to do this on a basic wordpress blog.
I have already tried page builder and Grid views and alot of plugins, but cant really make this kind of view.
This is done via custom post types and custom taxonomies.
For example, you could create a custom post type rom, and assign the custom taxonomy roms with child categories Android ROMs -> Asus ROMs. This child category is assigned to the custom post type.
I am very much new to wordpress and need help. Well I need to add a custom field to woocommerce product listing page in admin and make it work.
So where do I have to make changes in code or in admin section.I need some suggestions on how to make it work.
Thanks in advance
if I'm understanding you right you want to add new fields to your woocommerce products, and you want those fields to show up in the admin panel. I am working on this right now myself and I have found a few good resources.
First of all, although I can't find any documentation on them yet directly in the woocommerce API docs, there are two hooks for extending the admin panel.
woocommerce_product_write_panel_tabs - this allows you to insert a new tab within the admin panel. from browsing the source of various free woocommerce plugins that do this it appears that the tab format should be <li>Tab Name</li>.
woocommerce_product_write_panel - this is where the insertion of your custom panel contents would go, placed within a <div id="#tab_name"></div>
These are the two hooks that I have had a great deal of difficulty locating. They allow you to hook into the actual woocommerce admin area, otherwise custom fields you might add will end up in a separate panel.
For all the details on actually adding the custom fields themselves and hooking them up to the front-end, I suggest this tutorial here, which covers the basic concepts involved in adding a new meta-data field and hooking it into the product display (in this case the single-product detail view, it sounds like you want to modify them in the list view but this will show you the basic principles).
http://www.xatik.com/2013/02/06/add-custom-form-woocommerce-product/
Note: that tutorial doesn't use the woocommerce admin panel but creates its own panel, the instructions I gave above, plus this tutorial, should get you just about anywhere you need to go.
I'm having a site which has option to add hotels and restaurants. Both for them has different custom fields which i have added meta boxes with a plugin. But the custom fields of hotel are not needed for restuarant and vice versa.
So what I want to achieve is create extra menu on admin panel saying Add Restaurant & Add Hotel. When clicked on Hotel its should only show the custom fields configured for Hotel. I know this can be achieved by custom post types. But i don't want another post type unless i have no options.
Figured out that this is not the right place to ask.
Better try codex.
