Hi Skandha,
on my blog https://blog.frank-muennich.de I publish diffent kinds of text e.g. political statements, scientific elaborations … which I would like to keep seperated from each other in such a way, that they doent show up in the same places (e,g, the blog, or specific archives – sme author publishing political statements or statistical analyses) and allow for a diffent appearance on the front end using type-specific css.
Will these hints anwer your question?
Best regards,
Frank

@wolpertinger: Sorry for the late reply. Firstly you will need to create a child theme for this. If you do not know how to create a child theme then you can use Generate Child Theme Plugin.
Go to => Child Theme Folder => functions.php and add the following Code.

add_action( 'init', 'create_post_type' );
function create_post_type() {
    register_post_type( 'deals',
        array(
            'labels' => array(
                'name' => __( 'Deals' ),
                'singular_name' => __( 'Deal' )
            ),
        'public' => true,
        'has_archive' => true,
        )
    );
}

You can replace deals with the name of your custom post type.
You will get the custom post type in the admin area. You can add posts to it and display it as an archive page.

Let me know if this helps you out.
Kind Regards,
Skandha
