    * required on some sites. While WordPress provides a way to deregister custom
    * post type, the default Post type in WordPress cannot be dergegistered or
    * disabled. It can only be hidden. A few caveats:
    * * New posts can still be created using the direct link.
    * * Existing posts are not affected and will continue to load publicly.
    * * Editing exisiting posts will not be possible.
    * * Multisite will still show a menu item to create new posts.
