This plugin allows post types other than "page" to be displayed as the static front page.
As of April 2026, CPT on Front Page is a WordPress front page plugin with 30 active installations and a 5/5 rating from 3 reviews. It has been downloaded 3.0K+ times in total. Requires WordPress 3.5+ and PHP false+. Available on WordPress.org since 2014. Last updated 12 years ago — may have compatibility concerns. Top alternative: Custom Front Page.
Choose the post types that you would like to choose from in addition to Pages. The
“Front Page:” dropdown will then display each different post type in their own groups.
This will not result in a redirect on the front page as has been seen in other attempts
to provide this functionality. In addition, the canonical url will be properly reflected
as the home url.
