Solution

  • you need to use manage_[post_type]_posts_columns hook. Take a look at the WP documentation - https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/manage_post_type_posts_columns/ . Also take a look at this article where you can get a good example on how to use this hook for custom post types - https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2017/12/customizing-admin-columns-wordpress/ I think it's exactly what you need.
