It's simply the easiest

I’ve used this plugin for several months on a client’s site and I’m very happy with the performance of the plugin and the author’s support.

I recently did a pretty thorough review of the most popular, best supported custom post type plugins, and I came back to this one. Primarily, because it provides the most information and tools for how to display your content. Setting up custom fields is a no-brainer, but getting the results to sort, link and display the way you need to is the most important part of a tool like this. This plugin lays it all out for you.

The only downside for me is my own lack of ability/knowledge/clear instructions on how to paginate the results in a user friendly way. If that were added so I wouldn’t have to touch too much code, I’d bump this review from 4, to 5 stars.
