 * Hi everyone,
 * Here is my problem. I have installed The Event Calendar Plugin, wich creates 
   some custom types (let’s say Events).
    What i want to do i use these custom post
   types in my own plugin. I want to extend my XMLRPC functions to use them. The
   problem is that i can’t access them in my plugin. It’s like they not already 
   exist. Some functions like get_post_types() returns only the basic custom post
   type (even with the arg:
 *     ```
       $args=array(
         'public'   => true,
         '_builtin' => false
       );
       ```
   
 * ).
    Same thing for custom taxonomies. Any idea on how to solve this please?
 * Thanks!
