Max amount of cpt’s

    I’m working on a website that has 10 custom post types already (cpt per type of product) and the owner wants to add even more.
    I was able to create an 11th (when I try to make it now, it says it already exists), but I can’t see it anywhere in the backend.
    Also can’t force creating something of that type (…/wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=nameofnewcpt)

    Is there a solution to this?

    Thanks!

    Not really a known max limit that I’m aware of, especially when you consider how many “hidden” post types there are from WordPress core. I would be more interested in seeing the settings for all of them from you in case a specific parameter was causing the issue rather than a limit.

    Can you visit the tools section and the “post types” tab to grab the blob of content on the righthand side?

    Given the amount of post types being handled here, perhaps use pastebin.com or a GitHub Gist to share the actually content.

    Sure, nothing special really: https://pastebin.com/d1DP3dey

    Just to confirm, I was able to create CPT numbers 11 and 12, and I recall at least one person that had 50+ at one point.

    I also just noticed you said “when I try to make it now, it says it already exists”. What is the slug being used and what’s the actual error, the messaging should help indicate like if it’s matching a page, or a different post type slug, etc.
