Hi there

Firstly, please note that you are posting in the Community Forum for users of the free Types plugin. As a Toolset customer you can and should post in the Technical Support forum which we prioritise and where you should receive speedier service.

You can design templates for any post type, including built-in post and page types, not just custom post types.

The steps are the same, if you follow the documentation you can either create templates using Views or Layouts for standard posts.

Go to the Toolset > Dashboard and create a template from there, or go to Toolset > Content Templates to create a Views Content Template, or if you are using Layouts, go to Toolset > Layouts and create one from there. Specify that the usage is for the post type you require, i.e. Posts.

Here is the documentation which assumes you are using Layouts: https://toolset.com/documentation/getting-started-with-toolset/create-templates-to-display-custom-posts/
