[Plugin: Content Types] Looping through custom content | ww.wp.xz.cn

I’ve created a content type called “Asset”. In my theme, I’ve got single-asset.php working fine. I can’t quite figure out how to display 10 or 15 Assets on a single page. I’ve found code examples for a custom loop, but what file would the custom loop be placed into? What URL pattern would I use to view some/all Assets? Thanks!

What I’ve come up with is creating a template file named asset-page.php, then creating a blank Page and setting the template for that page to asset-page.php. The URL to view all the Assets is simply the URL for the empty page.

This gives me what I want, but I’m wondering if this is the “WordPress Way” to handle this? Thanks!

I am doing something like that on my site.

I have a content type called projects and I created a loop of that content type on the projects page template:
http://scottreeddesign.com/projects

If you click on a project you see the actual project permalink using the single project template.

The “WordPress Way” is whatever works. 🙂
