## Description

Pollux allows you to easily add custom Post Types, Taxonomies, Meta Boxes, Global
Settings, Archive Page meta, and more…all within mere minutes.

Instead of drag-and-drop, all configuration is added using simple [YAML](https://learn-the-web.algonquindesign.ca/topics/markdown-yaml-cheat-sheet/#yaml)
markup on the Pollux settings page.

Pollux uses the [Meta Box](https://wordpress.org/plugins/meta-box/) plugin to add
custom meta-boxes. If the Meta Box plugin is not installed, Pollux will prompt you
to do so on the Pollux settings page.

Please see the [plugin wiki](https://github.com/pryley/pollux/wiki) for complete
examples on how to use YAML markup in the plugin. Once you’ve used it, you’ll wonder
how you ever managed without it!

Pollux was made to complement themes built on the [Castor framework](https://github.com/pryley/castor-framework)(
i.e. [Castor](https://github.com/pryley/castor)), but it can be used with any theme.
