 * Hello, I am trying to add two post types to my WordPress. I used the following
   code in my functions.php file and only the first one “Web Design” is working.
 *     ```
       if( ! function_exists( 'portfolio_post_types' ) ) {
       	function portfolio_post_types() {
   
       		register_post_type(
       			'web-design-portfolio',
       			array(
       				'labels' => array(
       					'name' 			=> __( 'Web Design', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'singular_name' => __( 'Website', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'add_new'		=> __( 'Add New', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'add_new_item'	=> __( 'Add New Website', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'edit'			=> __( 'Edit', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'edit_item'		=> __( 'Edit Website', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'new_item'		=> __( 'New Website', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'view'			=> __( 'View Website', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'view_item'		=> __( 'View Website', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'search_items'	=> __( 'Search Websites', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'not_found'		=> __( 'No website found', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'not_found_in_trash' => __( 'No websites found in Trash', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       					'parent'		=> __( 'Parent Website', 'web-design-portfolio' ),
       				),
       				'description' 		=> __( 'Create a Website.', 'web-design-portfolio' ),

       				'menu_position' 		=> 6,
       				'hierarchical'		=> true,

       					'title', //Text input field to create a post title.
       					'editor',
       					'thumbnail'
       				)
       			)
       		);
   
       		register_post_type(
       			'graphic-design-portfolio',
       			array(
       				'labels' => array(
       					'name' 			=> __( 'Graphic Design', 'graphic-design-portfolio' ),
       					'singular_name' => __( 'Graphic Design', 'graphic-design-portfolio' ),

       				),
       				'description' 		=> __( 'Create an Artwork Piece.', 'graphic-design-portfolio' ),
       				'public'			=> true,
       				'show_ui' 			=> true,

       				'publicly_queryable'	=> true,

       		);
       	}
       }
   
       add_action( 'init', 'portfolio_post_types' ); // register post type

 * Solved. Apparently the post type ‘graphic-design-portfolio’ was too many characters
   long.
