Custom post type in child theme

    I am using Thematic WP Framework. I added a custom post type to the child theme functions.php based on https://kovshenin.com/archives/custom-post-types-in-wordpress-3-0/ :

    <?php
// Fire this during init
register_post_type('resort', array(
	'label' => __('Resorts'),
	'singular_label' => __('Resort'),
	'public' => true,
	'show_ui' => true,
	'capability_type' => 'post',
	'hierarchical' => false,
	'rewrite' => false,
	'query_var' => false,
	'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'author')
));

add_action("manage_posts_custom_column", "my_custom_columns");
add_filter("manage_edit-resort_columns", "my_resort_columns");

function my_resort_columns($columns)
{
	$columns = array(
		"cb" => "<input type=\"checkbox\" />",
		"title" => "Resort Title",
		"description" => "Description",
		"length" => "Length",
		"speakers" => "Speakers",
		"comments" => 'Comments'
	);
	return $columns;
}

function my_custom_columns($column)
{
	global $post;
	if ("ID" == $column) echo $post->ID;
	elseif ("description" == $column) echo $post->post_content;
	elseif ("length" == $column) echo "63:50";
	elseif ("speakers" == $column) echo "Joel Spolsky";
}

?>

    But this custom post type is not chown in the backend? What am I missing. i thought data added to child functions.php would be added to the mother functions.php ?

    Well I added the data to the main functions file and that does show up in the admin interface.

    add_action('init', 'portfolio_register');
 		flush_rewrite_rules();

function portfolio_register() {

	$labels = array(
		'name' => _x('My Portfolio', 'post type general name'),
		'singular_name' => _x('Portfolio Item', 'post type singular name'),
		'add_new' => _x('Add New', 'portfolio item'),
		'add_new_item' => __('Add New Portfolio Item'),
		'edit_item' => __('Edit Portfolio Item'),
		'new_item' => __('New Portfolio Item'),
		'view_item' => __('View Portfolio Item'),
		'search_items' => __('Search Portfolio'),
		'not_found' =>  __('Nothing found'),
		'not_found_in_trash' => __('Nothing found in Trash'),
		'parent_item_colon' => ''
	);

	$args = array(
		'labels' => $labels,
		'public' => true,
		'publicly_queryable' => true,
		'show_ui' => true,
		'query_var' => true,
		'menu_icon' => get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/article16.png',
		'rewrite' => true,
		'capability_type' => 'post',
		'hierarchical' => false,
		'menu_position' => null,
		'supports' => array('title','editor','thumbnail')
	  ); 

	register_post_type( 'portfolio' , $args );
}

    Just keep on getting 404s going to these custom post types all of the sudden. Re-saving permalinks or using flush_rewrite_rules(); does not seem to work.

    Well, after re-saving permalinks and custom post type article in question the 404s disappeared. Using this code now to register a custom post type and custom taxonomy:

    add_action('init', 'destinations_register');

function destinations_register() {

	$labels = array(
		'name' => _x('Destinations', 'post type general name'),
		'singular_name' => _x('Individual Destination', 'post type singular name'),
		'add_new' => _x('Add New', 'individual destination'),
		'add_new_item' => __('Add New Destination'),
		'edit_item' => __('Edit Individual Destination'),
		'new_item' => __('New Destination'),
		'view_item' => __('View Portfolio Item'),
		'search_items' => __('Search Destinations'),
		'not_found' =>  __('Nothing found'),
		'not_found_in_trash' => __('Nothing found in Trash'),
		'parent_item_colon' => ''
	);

	$args = array(
		'labels' => $labels,
		'public' => true,
		'publicly_queryable' => true,
		'show_ui' => true,
		'query_var' => true,
		'menu_icon' => get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/article16.png',
		'rewrite' => true,
		'capability_type' => 'post',
		'hierarchical' => false,
		'menu_position' => null,
		'supports' => array('title','editor','thumbnail')
	  ); 

	register_post_type( 'destination' , $args );
}

register_taxonomy("Resorts", array("destination"), array("hierarchical" => true, "label" => "Resorts", "singular_label" => "Skill", "rewrite" => true));
