Problem:

Intermediary posts created for Toolset relationships were appearing in public WordPress search results.

Solution:

Go to Toolset → Post Types, edit the relationship’s intermediary post type, expand the Options panel, enable exclude_from_search, and save the post type.

Problem:

The customer wanted to replace a third-party plugin that registers a custom post type and taxonomies with Toolset, while keeping the existing content and managing it through Toolset.

Solution:

The recommendation was to remove the original PHP registration from the third-party plugin and recreate the custom post type in Toolset using the same slug. Existing posts would remain available as long as the slug stays the same. For custom fields, Toolset’s Post Field Control can be used to take over management of existing fields. It was also noted that some plugin-specific functionality may not be transferable and should be tested.
