 * If you can zip up your plugins that create the post types or put them on GitHub,
   I’ll test it out tomorrow.

 * I appreciate it. I am actually just using the plugin CPT UI. [https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-type-ui/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-type-ui/)

 * I don’t really recommend plugins like that for creating post types. They’re OK
   for prototyping a design for a client but not for production. Nevertheless, that’s
   a conversation for another day.
 * It’s not something I can really test without the code. If you want to roll your
   own CPT, I’ll be happy to give it a test. Here’s a cheat sheet for registration:

 * Good feedback, I appreciate the time.
 * What the issue seemed to be is that the slug for the post type was not pluralized.
   Updating the CPT slug to be pluralized made the breadcrumbs include it.
 * Thanks again for your help.
