    Hi,
    I would like to add the Layout Builder to a custom post type, using a child theme. I have checked out this video and the changes only work when applied to the main enfold theme, not the child theme.

    I guess Dude’s response to another thread explains in a different context, however I have not spent too long looking at structures of the theme and therefore not sure on the code I should use.

    Thx

    Hello!

    I’m not sure if this is easily possible because the template builder requires a special template (compare single-portfolio.php for the portfolio cpt) but you can use a filter to register the cpt for the advanced layout builder meta box. Add following code to the child theme functions.php and replace mycpt with your custom post type slug.

    
    add_filter('avf_builder_boxes', 'avia_register_meta_boxes', 10, 1); //Add meta boxes to custom post types
    function avia_register_meta_boxes($boxes)
    {
        if(!empty($boxes))
        {
            foreach($boxes as $key => $box)
            {
                    $boxes[$key]['page'][] = 'mycpt';
            }
        }
        return $boxes;
    }

    Best regards,
    Peter
