Hi,

Unfortunately the Page builder is only loaded in the normal Post custom type, and in the products page.

How I can load page builder in my custom post types ?

Hi

I’m afraid it’s not so simple, as this is more than a small customisation I’m afraid we can’t support for it. Apologies, but we only have time to help people with theme bugs and basic customisations

Would be super helpful to be able to create a custom post type and use the page builder.

I was kind of counting on that as a function.

Hey guys,

We’re working on adding a post type select for enabling the page builder, but for now you can edit /includes/page-builder/composer/lib/composer.php line 63/65 and include the post type in the array:

$this->postTypes = $pt_array ? $pt_array : array('page', 'post', 'portfolio', 'product');

Hope that helps.

This seems strait forward enough although I can not find the “composer.php” file for the life of me. Is this the correct path?

Hi,
That is correct path. I explore more path /wp-content/themes/flexform/includes/page-builder/composer/lib/composer.php. Hopefully that should help to you.
Thanks

OK that is me not paying attention I was looking to make the same change to Dante, did not realize I got into the flexform forum when doing my search.

Hi,
You should edit /dante/swift-framework/page-builder/builder/lib/builder.php at line 42 and 44
$this->postTypes = $pt_array ? $pt_array : array('page', 'post', 'portfolio', 'product', 'team', 'jobs', 'ajde_events',);

Hope that should help to you.

Thanks 🙂

Hey,

Thanks for this post.

I am able to get page builder on my custom post. This is really awesome.

One more thing I want. I also wish to have the other styling custom options which are below the post area

i.e. Show/Hide Header, Show/Hide footer, remove/not remove breadcrums etc. (Check the screenshot)

How can I get those?

Many thanks in advance,

– Sumit

Hi,

Please edit meta-boxes.php file at /flexform/includes/

Find this code:-

‘pages’ => array( ‘post’ ),

And insert your custom post type like:-

‘pages’ => array( ‘post’,’custom_post’ ),
