HI,

I am trying to use Jetpack's related post feature to work with custom post types created by toolset. Jetpack has documentation on the code that needs to be included in functions.php here: hidden link (will need to scroll to the bottom).

They ask to include this code in the function.php file

function allow_my_post_types($allowed_post_types) {
$allowed_post_types[] = 'your-post-type';
return $allowed_post_types;
}
add_filter( 'rest_api_allowed_post_types', 'allow_my_post_types' );

with an instruction to change 'your-post-type' to the name of the custom post type.

If I have created 3 custom post types via toolset (for e.g. books, videos & courses), I wanted to check
(a) how do I find the name I am supposed to use here (is it the name single, name plural, slug or a machine readable name that I can find somewhere)
(b) do I need to add the function code above 3 times for each custom post type, or can I add all 3 custom post types seperated by a comma

Hi Ashi,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

I'm assuming that you would need to use the slug. Also yes you would need to create the function 3 times

1 instance for each CPT.

Thanks,
Shane
