Dynamic function name in php

Question

I would like to simplify the creation of \"Custom Post Types\" in WordPress as it is tedious to go through the same script and change all the custom post type name instances

Answer 1

I'm not sure any of the above actually answer the question about dynamically creating custom post types. This works for me though:

$languages = ("English", "Spanish", "French");

foreach($languages as $language):

    $example = function () use ($language) {

        $labels = array(
                'name' => __( $language . ' Posts' ),
                'singular_name' => __( $language . ' Post' )
        );

        $args = array(
   
            'labels'              => $labels,
            'hierarchical'        => false,
            'public'              => true,
            'show_ui'             => true,
            'show_in_menu'        => true,
            'show_in_nav_menus'   => true,
            'show_in_admin_bar'   => true,
            'menu_position'       => 5,
            "rewrite" => array( "slug" => $language . "_posts", "with_front" => true ),
            'capability_type'     => 'page',
         );
        register_post_type( $language . "_posts", $args );  

    };
    add_action( 'init', $example, 0 );

endforeach;
