Section specific post types?

Hey!
I’m pretty sure, it’s not possible, but I’d like to try my luck:
Is it possible to create a section specific post type?

E.g. I’d like to set up a new section, like a marketplace, for my community. Obviously Question, Conversation, Idea”wouldn’t be suitable for something that should be an offer. Instead I’d like to create two different post types for this section: Offer and Searching 
Is this possible?

    Hey ​@Xentral_Community 

    Do you mean changing the type of content creation for your users? I don’t think that would be possible at the moment.

    But if it is something that you are publishing and you have control of the post - maybe you could try to give it a label to make it stand out as a different post once it’s published?

    It would still appear in view for them basis the label ON the post, so that might make it easy for them to differentiate.

    Thank you for your reply ​@revathimenon !
    Yes, I’m talking about the content my users can publish. Ok, good to know, that it isn’t just my incapability.
    Thank you very much!
