 * I am making a custom post type using the plugins custom post type ui and advanced
   custom fields. I am working on a local version of wordpress.
 * I make the custom post type and everything is going good. For screen options 
   I left everything unchecked and when I made the custom post none of the screen
   options are showing up. I need a featured image but cannot. I have declared it
   in the functions.php
 * add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’ );
 * still not able to add a featured image. I am using
    Wordpress 4.1.1 Advanced 
   Custom Fields 4.4.0 custom post type ui 1.0.2
 * If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

 * When you created the custom post type, did you pass the `supports` argument to`
   register_post_type()`:
 * `'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt', 'comments')`

 * I was using a plugin and have now found the answer regarding the plugin. I would
   like to learn how to do Custom Post Types in the functions.php. Do you know of
   some good tutorials that would help?

 * The [Codex page](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type)
   is a bit barebones, but all the information is there. Check out the Parameters
   section for the arguments you can use. Also, try using the post type generator:
