Problem:
1. When I view the Toolset Dashboard. Does the Front-End "Template" column list "Template Layouts" that I have created, "Views Content Templates" that I have created or both types of templates?
2. In the Dashboard, under Toolset, "Layouts" lists "Layouts being used as templates for post types". Are those "Template Layouts"?
3. In the Dashboard, under Toolset, it lists "Content Templates". Are those what is meant by "Views Content Templates"?
Solution:
1. If you have the Layouts plugin active, this column should only display the Template Layout associated with this post type, or the fallback PHP template like single.php, regardless of Content Templates you have applied to the post type. If Layouts plugin is not active, then this column should only display the Content Template you have applied to the post type, or the fallback PHP template, regardless of any Layouts you may have applied before deactivating the plugin.
2. That's correct.
3. Yes, that's correct as well.
In general, Content Templates don't apply to entire post types or archives when you're using the Layouts plugin. They would mainly be utilized in individual Views' Loop Outputs in this case. If Layouts is not active, then Content Templates can apply to entire post types or archives, or to individual Views Loop Outputs.
Change 12345 to match your CRED form ID, change tutor-status to match your Tutor Status taxonomy slug, change tutor-term-slug to match the term slug you want to associate with the parent post, and change tutorslug to match your tutor post type slug.
Problem:
I created a custom type, “Volunteers” with fields for first name and last name. When I add a volunteer, I want to automatically set the post link to “Last Name, First Name”. For example if first name is “John” and last name is “Doe”, I want the post title to be set to “Doe, John” and the post link to be set to volunteer=doe-john. Is there an easy way to do so?
Solution:
There isn't such a feature within Toolset plugins, it needs custom codes, I suggest you try with wordpress action hook save_post
For example, when user save a "Volunteers" post, use action save_post to trigger a custom PHP function, in this function get the value of "Last Name, First Name"
use those values to update the post title to what you want
