 * Sorrry to bother you but I have spend hours trying to figure out how to register
   a custom post type VIA A FORM SUBMISSION like how custom post type UI does it
   and I just thought … well why not just ask …. so maybe if it’s not a trade secret
   you’d share it with me ( for all i know it’s commonly known but i couldnt find
   out how anyhow – code always seems to need add_action(‘init’ .. )

 * Yes using the init action hook you can register post types when WordPress is 
   initialized. I’m basically storing an array of custom post types as a single 
   option in WordPress. Then I retrieve that option on init and register the post
   types defined. Check out the code for the plugin, it’s pretty easy to follow.
