Honestly, I just hard coded it into the functions.php. I can share the code that worked for me.
But a friend had the same issue (though she may have been using a different, but similar plugin). I believe she said she assigned the custom capability type and the custom post type disappeared from the menu. But when she assigned a user that capability type, it reappeared.
I’d be curious if that actually works.
But if that doesn’t work, here’s the code:
/*Organization Listing Post type */
function register_custom_event_type() {
$labels = array(
‘name’ => (‘Organization Listings’),
‘singular_name’ => (‘Organization Listing’),
‘add_new’ => (‘Add New’),
‘add_new_item’ => (‘Add New Listing’),
‘edit_item’ => (‘Edit Listing’),
‘new_item’ => (‘New Listing’),
‘view_item’ => (‘View Listing’),
‘search_items’ => (‘Search Listing’),
‘not_found’ => (‘No listings found’),
‘not_found_in_trash’ => (‘No listings found in Trash’),
‘parent_item_colon’ => (‘Parent Listing:’),
‘menu_name’ => (‘Organization Listings’),
);
$args = array(
‘description’ => ‘organization listings’,
‘labels’ => $labels,
‘supports’ => array( ‘title’, ‘editor’, ‘thumbnail’, ‘revisions’ , ‘author’, ‘comments’),
‘hierarchical’ => false,
‘public’ => true,

‘capabilities’ => array(

‘publish_posts’ => ‘org_publish_posts’,
‘edit_others_posts’ => ‘org_edit_others_posts’,
‘delete_posts’ => ‘org_delete_posts’,
‘delete_others_posts’ => ‘org_delete_others_posts’,
‘read_private_posts’ => ‘org_read_private_posts’,
‘edit_post’ => ‘org_edit_post’,
‘edit_posts’ => ‘org_edit_posts’,
‘delete_post’ => ‘org_delete_post’,

‘edit_private_posts’ => ‘org_edit_private_posts’,
‘read_private_posts’ => ‘org_read_private_posts’,
),
‘map_meta_cap’ => true
);
register_post_type(‘organization-listing’, $args);
}
add_action(‘init’, ‘register_custom_event_type’, 0);
//Add Organization Custom Capabilities to Admin Role
function add_event_caps() {
$role = get_role( ‘administrator’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_edit_post’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_edit_posts’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_edit_others_posts’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_publish_posts’ );

$role->add_cap( ‘read_private_events’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_delete_post’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_edit_published_posts’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_delete_published_posts’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_edit_published_posts’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_edit_private_posts’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘org_read_private_posts’ );
}
add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘add_event_caps’);
//Change title pre-fill text for organization page to “Service Name”
function change_default_title( $title ){
$screen = get_current_screen();
if ( $screen->post_type == ‘organization-listing’ ) {
return ‘Service Name’;
}
}
add_filter( ‘enter_title_here’, ‘change_default_title’ );
