Is there a way to add a menu item that automatically populates with posts from a new CPT that I created?

Hi Amin,

Thank you for getting in touch.

While there is no way to do this with toolset, you can however achieve this with some 3rd party plugin.

I did a quick search to see if I could find any such plugin and found the one below.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-type-auto-menu/

Please let me know if this one helps.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane.

That's too bad that you can't do it with Toolset. I did try the plugin you suggested, but it doesn't work either.

Any other suggestions?

Hi Amin,

The plugin works fine on my end. Once i set it up in the settings and select the menu item it automatically adds my posts to the menu when I create it.

If a 3rd party plugin doesn't provide the solution for you then it would need to be done using some custom coding. Have you configured the options of the plugin to setup which CPT you want the posts to get auto Added. See Screenshot

Thanks,
Shane
