Theme functionality missing from custom post

    I just installed CPT UI after watching a video from Justin at CSS-Tricks.

    When I goto the new post type I created, the option to disable the sidebar or header are not showing. I know these are associated with my theme, “The7 w/ Visual Composer”.

    Can you give a snippet, or at least point me in the right direction as how I can fix this? Or is it possible to just duplicate my theme’s content-single.php template file and some how import it into CPT UI or get CPT UI to recognize it?

    Since they are metaboxes and features provided by the The7 theme, their support/documentation is probably going to be best for figuring this part out, as a whole.

    May or may not be much, but I did see something about “Also make sure all required modules are enabled in Dashboard > The7 > My The7 > Settings > The7 Post Types and Elements.” on http://support.dream-theme.com/knowledgebase/portfolio-benefits-etc-are-gone/ which may point to where to go to enable details for custom post types.

    Regarding a content-single.php, you’d first one to make sure to make a single-{$post_type_slug}.php file and whatnot to make sure that gets used for the post type in question. Inside single.php is probably a call along the lines of get_template_part( ‘content’, ‘single’ ); that you’d need to change as well to safely alter for just the post type.

    First and foremost though, I’d contact the theme support. Less customization work potentially.

    Thank you very much. I contacted the theme developer and they provided me with a snippet to add to my function.php file, and it worked perfectly.
