I registered a custom post type, but then I changed register_post_type( 'studentenverenigingen', $args ); into register_post_type( 'studentenverenigingen', $args ); . Now my client wants it back to the first one, so I changed it, but somehow it's not working now.

I don't see it in the admin bar and also the archive / url isn't visible either.

Who can tell me what is wrong with this:

• You may be running into a character limit. Try shortening the slug of your CPT (studentenverenigingen) and use unregister_post_type('studentenverenigingen) right before re-registering it. – WebElaine Commented Sep 18, 2019 at 14:13

function custom_post_type() {

custom postcode here

}

add Action hook at the end of functions

add_action( 'init', 'custom_post_type', 0 );
