Plugin conflicts with Vertex theme

    FYI, this plugin’s Custom Post Type conflicts with the Vertex theme’s (Elegant Themes) built-in “Projects” CPT. They use the exact same name, so the plugin displays both the plugin projects and the CPT for “Projects”, and the two sets of content can’t be separated unless you modify the functions.php file.

    I suggest using a more proprietary name for the plugin CPT.

    Haven’t heard that much conflict report till now and lots of users are using the plugin already. We are not planning to change the CPT name yet.

    Other developers make their plugin’s presence proprietary by using a prefix, like everything in Pippin’s Easy Content Types preceded by “ecpt”. This way, they never conflict. In your next major release, it would be good for WP PM to work the same way.

    Yeah, did that mistake from the beginning. Now it’ll be a bit difficult to migrate, but not harder.
