    Congrats on a really great theme.
    I’m using IssueM plugin (http://issuem.com/) to enable periodical publishing for a magazine. This plugin uses “articles” instead of “posts”.
    I tried to use the Page Builder to display these articles either as latest or as carousel but nothing appears on the page.
    My assumption is that the theme doesn’t recognize the “articles” and looking only for posts. How would I go about fixing this.
    Please see the attached screenshots.
    Any help is really appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Hi

    I’m afraid it’s not possible to pull in ‘Articles’ with the page builder as it is a 3rd party plugin and is not part of the theme.

    Do you think that there might be some merit to duplicating the post-carousel.php file (/swift-framework/page-builder/builder/shortcodes/posts-carousel.php), calling it for example “article-carousel.php”, editing it by replacing all instances of “post” with “article” and somehow have the theme see it to pull the articles’ content?

    Thank you so much!

    I’m afraid not sorry, it’s not within the scope of our support to be able to provide that functionality as it is more work than a small customisation and would be specific for you. I’m afraid we can only provide support for basic customisations

    As I understand it, these “articles” are nothing but a custom post type that the plugin introduces to the site. There should be a way to make the Page Builder recognize this custom post type. Any help towards the right direction would be immensely appreciated.
    Thank you in advance.

    Reading from the multiple user posts, there seems to be an immediate need for Dante to support custom post types. Ed talked in this response about a work-around to accomplish this (http://support.swiftideas.net/forums/topic/does-dante-support-custom-post-types/).

    Can anyone take the time to answer this in details so we move along with developing our site?
    This is very high priority for us.

    Thank you
