6,954 PointsHi, guys, I am bit confused with CPT UI as it has a field 'Post Type Slug', what should I enter for Portfolio?
CPT won't let me use portfolio in the 'Post Type Slug' as I already have a page called that, I am really confused as of what to put. Thanks it advance!

It is essentially an arbitrary name you create so you can identify it elsewhere. For instance I just used "portfoliopieces" as the slug, but then you have to be mindful to use the slug you create wherever it is used. For instance in my page-portfolio, when I created the $args variable I would write this:
$args = array('post_type' => 'portfoliopieces');
Instead of this:
$args = array('post_type' => 'portfolio');
I hope that makes sense!
