Hi, I am wondering if you plugin will work to 1) create custom post types that are searchable, etc. and 2) is able to import a CSV file with about 6500 line to custom post type? How may I go about doing that? I have to convert this outdated site/system to a new WordPress site - (hidden link)

Welcome to Toolset support and I'd be happy to assist.

- You can create searchable custom post types using the Toolset Types plugin:

2) is able to import a CSV file with about 6500 line to custom post type? How may I go about doing that?

- There are a number of third-party plugins available to import posts in WordPress and we have a detailed step-by-step guide on the topic at:

Additionally, if you're migrating into WordPress from a different platform, this overview article will also prove useful:
