I followed the tutorial about creating a new post type and everything works great for doing new posts, but how do I make these posts with the new post type count as the default post type for the website. When I go into users and some of these other areas they say that individuals have not created any posts, but they have it's just reading the WP built-In posts to read from. I want it to be my posts.

Hello,

The WordPress built-in post type "Posts" are different from other custom post types, you can not use to custom post type to replace built-in post type "Posts", and there isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset to use custom post type to replace built-in "Posts".

If you need to display those custom post types in front-end, please follow our document to create a page and setup the view block:

You can also add a post author filters to view block, and display current user's custom posts:
