 * I can’t find the section to add a CPT anywhere. Where’s it supposed to be located?

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for the feedback. The Dynamic Post Type module is located in “Tools > 
   Post Types”, as described in the documentation: [https://www.acf-extended.com/features/modules/dynamic-post-types](https://www.acf-extended.com/features/modules/dynamic-post-types)
 * If you don’t see that menu, please check that the `show_admin` setting is correctly
   setup. See ACF documentation about `show_admin` setting: [https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/how-to-hide-acf-menu-from-clients/](https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/how-to-hide-acf-menu-from-clients/)
 * Have a nice day.
 * Regards.

 * No problem. I would recommend to bookmark the documentation, as this is where
   you’ll find all useful information about all ACF Extended features (and there
   are plenty!).

 * Hi, I do not see the place to add a CPT either. However when I look at Settings
   > Modules tab > Post Types I have the checkmarks.
    Also tried adding add_filter(‘
   acf/settings/show_admin’, ‘__return_true’); to my finctions.php. No change.

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for the feedback. Have you checked the “Tools > Post Types” menu? This
   is where the module is located.
 * The `show_admin` setting should be used in special cases where you decided to
   hide ACF menu to clients. If you see the ACF menu, then you should see Tools 
   > Post Types menu. You can also check that you have the correct role/permission.
   By default ACF & ACF Extended require `manage_options` permission.
 * Otherwise you may have a compatibility problem, or a custom code somewhere which
   disable it. To make sure you should try to use a fresh WP install + ACF Pro +
   ACF Extended.
 * Hope it helps!
 * Regards.

 * Never mind, I found it 🙂
    For anyone look in Cutom Fields > Tools, that’s not
   where this is happening. Go to main Admin menu “Tools” > Post Types. Also has
   taxonomy… yay, more stuff to play around with 🙂 Thanks!
