I would like to be able to export a list of my custom posts into a csv file, that includes all of the custom fields. Is this possible within toolset?

I've tried using the WP Import Export Lite plugin, but this does not allow me to export custom fields that I have created with Toolset. If the option is not available natively with the Toolset plugin, I have looked into the Pro version of the WP Import Export plugin (hidden link). Will this plugin allow me to export post with custom fields from Toolset?

Hi there

The link you shared leads to a 404.

I'm not familiar with all of the import and export tools available.

Typically you need a Pro version to handle custom field exports and imports.

Bear in mind that Types custom fields are stored as standard post meta so any plugin that handles generic custom fields should manage the basic task of exporting and importing Types custom field contents. (It may help to know that Types custom fields are stored in wp_postmeta with a 'wpcf-' prefix, e.g. a "priority" custom field would be stored with a key of 'wpcf-priority'.)

WP All Import Pro and WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugins have special integrations with Types to handle post relationship data, see https://toolset.com/course-lesson/how-to-import-content-into-wordpress-using-csv/ for a comparison.
