Hurray for the awesome tutorial “Displaying custom post types inside of the Avia Layout Builder”. This worked really well!
Ref: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/displaying-custom-post-types-inside-of-the-avia-layout-builder/

But, to preserve my changes, am I able to add that file with folder structure (/wp-content/themes/enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-template-builder/config/meta.php) to my child theme? I don’t want to re-hack the theme each time there is an upgrade. And- would you consider a future UI for theme options just to add the custom post types?

I’m wondering the same thing. What’s the response to this? I don’t want to keep making changes to the core files after every theme update.

This looks good to shortcodes, but does it work for the Avia page builder?
Maybe replacing:
array_unshift($paths, $template_url.’/shortcodes/’);
with
array_unshift($paths, $template_url.’/meta/’);
Then creating the folder structure (/wp-content/themes/enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-template-builder/config/meta.php) in child theme?

Hi!

Revert the modifications back then add this to the child theme’s functions.php:
```
add_filter('avf_builder_boxes', 'add_builder_to_posttype');

function add_builder_to_posttype($metabox)
{
	foreach($metabox as &$meta)
	{
		if($meta['id'] == 'avia_builder' || $meta['id'] == 'layout')
		{
			$meta['page'][] = 'movie'; /*instead add the name of the custom post type here*/
		}
	}
	

	return $metabox;
}
```
Replace “movie” with the name of your own custom post type.

Cheers!
