Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Can you please tell me where exactly you would like to get help from us.

Toolset offers Types PHP API using which you can access the value of custom fields created using Types.

I'm not sure how exactly you would like to use Toolset, do you want to expose the Types custom fields or you want to import the RSS feed?

I'd like to use Toolset to create a CPT, which I already did and created a CPT called Sermons. I also, have the Sermon taxomies like Books, Series, and Speakers. I can not and don't have time to create my own RSS feed. I have trouble with the PHP language and developing WordPress themes or Plugins. I'm getting better at WordPress front-end using the Platform. My question can Toolset have an RSS feed for each CPT you create built in, please?

Toolse offers the REST API support using which you can expose the custom fields using the REST API request:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/toolset-integration-with-the-rest-api/

So, if you want the feed, you will require to customize it according to your requirement.

However, I can see there are number of plugins available, may be you can check the following if that helps:

May I request a refund? I won't be using this

It seems its too early to ask for refund let me share what we can offer and you can check if that helps you.

Thats fine but have you checked the following links:
- hidden link
- http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/3801/add-custom-fields-to-custom-post-type-rss

You can access the RSS feel normally as per wordpress standard supported.

Lets say you have a custom post type called "Books" and the slug is book, to display the RSS feeds for Books you only need to do this:
- hidden link

It will automatically load the information about the post but not the custom fields.

To add the custom fields to your RSS feed, you will require to use the hook: rss2_item
=> https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/3801/add-custom-fields-to-custom-post-type-rss

For example:

add_action('rss2_item', 'yoursite_rss2_item');
function yoursite_rss2_item() {
  if (get_post_type()=='my_custom_post_type') {
    $fields = array( 'field1', 'field2', 'field3' );
    $post_id = get_the_ID();
    foreach($fields as $field)
      if ($value = get_post_meta($post_id,$field,true))
        echo "<{$field}>{$value}</{$field}>\n";
  }
}

Please let me know if you require further help here. You should just setup your custom post type and grant me the access details as well as tell me what custom fields you want to add to your RSS feed and I would be happy to help you further.

There's actually another plugin for sermons. It's not out yet, but when it comes out, I'll be using that upcoming plugin for Sermons. I was going to use Toolset for Sermons as custom post type, but I don't believe I would need it. Please can I get a refund?

[Minesh]

Ok. If you decided that the Toolset plugin is not the best option as per your requirement.

You can file a refund request using the following form:
