I try to export a custom post type through TOOLS - >EXPORT and the CPT I want to export not appears. I have 3 CPT and 2 apears but not one.

What can I do?

Thanks

Can you show me this on the backend?
I'd need Admin login details.

Usually, you can simply head to Tools > Export and check the radio next to the Custom Post Type, and export it
I'll see why it could be that this doesn't work.
