 * I have a specific page type in my theme called ‘artist’ which shows up in neither
   page count nor post count.
    Can I create a custom shortcode to count the number
   of artist pages on the site? Here’s a page within that type as an reference [https://bandsondemand.org/artist/far-suns-fall/](https://bandsondemand.org/artist/far-suns-fall/)

 * Yeah you can do this:
 * `[sbs_cpt_count cpt="artist"]`
 * More info about this and other shortcodes in the plugin documentation/readme.
