-# Frontend Functionality
-
-## Overview
-
-This guide covers WordPress plugin frontend features: custom post types, custom taxonomies, shortcodes, and widgets. These are the primary ways plugins extend WordPress content and display functionality.

-## Custom Post Types
-
-### Basic Registration
-
-```php

-## Best Practices
-
-### Custom Post Types
-
-1. **Use proper labels**: Provide all label variations for better UX
-2. **Enable REST API**: Set `show_in_rest => true` for Gutenberg support
-3. **Set proper capabilities**: Use `capability_type` and `map_meta_cap`
-4. **Flush rewrite rules**: Only on activation/deactivation, never on every page load
-5. **Use proper supports**: Only enable features you need
-
-### Custom Taxonomies
-
-1. **Choose hierarchy wisely**: Hierarchical for categories, non-hierarchical for tags
-2. **Enable REST API**: Required for Gutenberg block editor
-3. **Show in admin column**: Makes content management easier
-4. **Use proper rewrite rules**: Avoid conflicts with existing slugs
-
-### Shortcodes
-
-1. **Use shortcode_atts()**: Always provide defaults and sanitize
-2. **Return, don't echo**: Shortcodes should return content, not echo it
-3. **Use output buffering**: For complex HTML output
-4. **Sanitize and escape**: All user input and output
-5. **Support enclosed content**: When it makes sense for your shortcode
-
-### Widgets
-
-1. **Extend WP_Widget**: Use the standard WordPress widget class
-2. **Sanitize in update()**: Always sanitize user input
-3. **Escape in widget()**: Escape all output
-4. **Use widget_title filter**: Allow theme/plugin filtering of titles
-5. **Reset post data**: Always call wp_reset_postdata() after custom queries
-
----
-
-## Common Pitfalls
-
-### ❌ DON'T
-
-```php
-// Don't flush rewrite rules on every page load
-add_action( 'init', 'my_plugin_register_post_type' );
-add_action( 'init', 'flush_rewrite_rules' ); // BAD!
-
-// Don't echo in shortcodes
-function bad_shortcode() {
-    echo '<p>Content</p>'; // BAD!
-}
-
-// Don't forget to sanitize widget input
-public function update( $new_instance, $old_instance ) {
-    return $new_instance; // BAD!
-}
-```
-
-### ✅ DO
-
-```php
-// Flush rewrite rules only on activation
-register_activation_hook( __FILE__, 'my_plugin_activate' );
-function my_plugin_activate() {
-    my_plugin_register_post_type();
-    flush_rewrite_rules();
-}
-
-// Return content from shortcodes
-function good_shortcode() {
-    return '<p>Content</p>'; // GOOD!
-}
-
-// Always sanitize widget input
-public function update( $new_instance, $old_instance ) {
-    $instance = array();
-    $instance['title'] = sanitize_text_field( $new_instance['title'] );
-    return $instance; // GOOD!
-}
-```

+# Frontend Functionality
+
+## Overview
+
+This guide covers WordPress plugin frontend features: custom post types, custom taxonomies, shortcodes, and widgets. These are the primary ways plugins extend WordPress content and display functionality.

+
+## Custom Post Types
+
+### Basic Registration
+

+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Custom Post Types
+
+1. **Use proper labels**: Provide all label variations for better UX
+2. **Enable REST API**: Set `show_in_rest => true` for Gutenberg support
+3. **Set proper capabilities**: Use `capability_type` and `map_meta_cap`
+4. **Flush rewrite rules**: Only on activation/deactivation, never on every page load
+5. **Use proper supports**: Only enable features you need
+
+### Custom Taxonomies
+
+1. **Choose hierarchy wisely**: Hierarchical for categories, non-hierarchical for tags
+2. **Enable REST API**: Required for Gutenberg block editor
+3. **Show in admin column**: Makes content management easier
+4. **Use proper rewrite rules**: Avoid conflicts with existing slugs
+
+### Shortcodes
+
+1. **Use shortcode_atts()**: Always provide defaults and sanitize
+2. **Return, don't echo**: Shortcodes should return content, not echo it
+3. **Use output buffering**: For complex HTML output
+4. **Sanitize and escape**: All user input and output
+5. **Support enclosed content**: When it makes sense for your shortcode
+
+### Widgets
+
+1. **Extend WP_Widget**: Use the standard WordPress widget class
+2. **Sanitize in update()**: Always sanitize user input
+3. **Escape in widget()**: Escape all output
+4. **Use widget_title filter**: Allow theme/plugin filtering of titles
+5. **Reset post data**: Always call wp_reset_postdata() after custom queries
+
+---
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+### ❌ DON'T
+
+```php
+// Don't flush rewrite rules on every page load
+add_action( 'init', 'my_plugin_register_post_type' );
+add_action( 'init', 'flush_rewrite_rules' ); // BAD!
+
+// Don't echo in shortcodes
+function bad_shortcode() {
+    echo '<p>Content</p>'; // BAD!
+}
+
+// Don't forget to sanitize widget input
+public function update( $new_instance, $old_instance ) {
+    return $new_instance; // BAD!
+}
+```
+
+### ✅ DO
+
+```php
+// Flush rewrite rules only on activation
+register_activation_hook( __FILE__, 'my_plugin_activate' );
+function my_plugin_activate() {
+    my_plugin_register_post_type();
+    flush_rewrite_rules();
+}
+
+// Return content from shortcodes
+function good_shortcode() {
+    return '<p>Content</p>'; // GOOD!
+}
+
+// Always sanitize widget input
+public function update( $new_instance, $old_instance ) {
+    $instance = array();
+    $instance['title'] = sanitize_text_field( $new_instance['title'] );
+    return $instance; // GOOD!
+}
+```
+```
