Hi mimis. If you disable the plugin do the default theme post options display again?
Hi bdbrown,
when I create a classic post everything works even if the plugin is enabled… the post appears on the homepage, on widgets, category & tag pages.
When, instead of a classic post, I add a custom type post the theme post options are not available. I would also like for the custom type posts to be available throughout the website, just like classic posts.
I think I must go and tweak the theme in order to recognize the new custom post types and be able to function correctly with them.
Do you know if there is a way I can do this once for the entire theme & widgets, or I have to go to each page/widget and tweak the code?
I don’t know anything about the plugin so what I’m saying here might not even be relevant. But you asked for some input so here it is. In regards to the post options, the plugin FAQ mentions that you can tell Types to manage those custom fields, so perhaps you’d have to figure out what those are in the theme and then add them to Types. For the custom post types, the plugin FAQ mentions not defining custom post types and taxonomy in more that one place. If they are, then the solution given is to remove the existing php code that defines them and then redefine them in Types. I’m only guessing but it sounds like the plugin overrides the existing custom post types in the theme and they would need to be removed from the theme code and redefined in Types. Again, only a guess based on what I see in the plugin FAQ. You might also consider posting the question in the plugin forum and see if anyone there has any ideas.
