New Post Type Labels in 5.0

It’s been a while since new post type labels have been introduced in WordPress.

In WordPress 5.0, five additional labels have been made available for custom post types. These get passed in via the labels argument when using register_post_type(). The following labels are new:

• item_published — The label used in the editor notice after publishing a post. Default “Post published.” / “Page published.”
• item_published_privately — The label used in the editor notice after publishing a private post. Default “Post published privately.” / “Page published privately.”
• item_reverted_to_draft — The label used in the editor notice after reverting a post to draft. Default “Post reverted to draft.” / “Page reverted to draft.”
• item_scheduled — The label used in the editor notice after scheduling a post to be published at a later date. Default “Post scheduled.” / “Page scheduled.”
• item_updated — The label used in the editor notice after updating a post. Default “Post updated.” / “Page updated.”

Please note the trailing period for all of these strings.
