I am trying to: I'm using Toolset on WP. In the backend, I'm trying to get access to the custom Post type I created, from the WP menu, left column, but now it's gone! It was working properly until I modified some Toolset settings, like the placement or so. Then it suddenly vanished from the menu. I remember having this same issue once with Pods… Any ideas?

Link to a page where the issue can be seen:

I expected to see: My Custom Post Type, as was shown before the bug

Instead, I got: No access to my Custom Post Type on the WP menu anymore
