I am working on auditing a WordPress website – find out how it is currently set up and what improvements can be made. I noticed that the ‘podcasts’, ‘courses’ and ‘Directory’, are not created as normal WP posts, but are separated on the left hand nav (with a plugin?). I don’t know a lot about custom fields, but I am wondering if this has been set up with them. When viewing these pages, they are not editable with Elementor. Any idea why the original developers would do this?

The site is live, so I can’t try much. In redeveloping it, I think the better option would to be to group these all as usual WP posts and display them on different pages via categories.
