add_post_type_support( string $post_type, string|array $feature, mixed $args )
Registers support of certain features for a post type.
Description Description
All core features are directly associated with a functional area of the edit screen, such as the editor or a meta box. Features include: ‘title’, ‘editor’, ‘comments’, ‘revisions’, ‘trackbacks’, ‘author’, ‘excerpt’, ‘page-attributes’, ‘thumbnail’, ‘custom-fields’, and ‘post-formats’.
Additionally, the ‘revisions’ feature dictates whether the post type will store revisions, and the ‘comments’ feature dictates whether the comments count will show on the edit screen.
A third, optional parameter can also be passed along with a feature to provide additional information about supporting that feature.
Example usage:
add_post_type_support( 'my_post_type', 'comments' );
add_post_type_support( 'my_post_type', array(
'author', 'excerpt',
) );
add_post_type_support( 'my_post_type', 'my_feature', array(
'field' => 'value',
) );Parameters Parameters

- $feature

(string|array) (Required) The feature being added, accepts an array of feature strings or a single string.

This example adds support for excerpts in pages (assuming it is *not* showing under “Screen Options”):
<?php add_action('init', 'wpdocs_custom_init'); /** * Add excerpt support to pages */ function wpdocs_custom_init() { add_post_type_support( 'page', 'excerpt' ); } ?>Unfortunately,
add_post_type_support('page', 'thumbnail');won’t add featured images to pages. For that you need to [add theme support for post-thumbnails
add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails', array( 'post', 'page' ) );http://wpsocket.com/wpref/function/add_theme_support/#post-thumbnails
