So the issue was a 3rd party plugin was somehow making the post type inaccessible. Its not in the wp repo but I think its called Pages by User Role for WordPress.

Yes, so the post type was there before and it was added at the same time as other post types such as staff…for example…and the others are still available. But not sure why this one…mentors…is no longer available. Not sure if this happened during the WP 5.5 update or with the latest update to CPT-UI.

Hey Michael…so I was about to go ahead and do what @khalkjaer did and manually re-add the post-type, but I wanted to double check. The posts are still in the database and I still see the post-type in the admin cpt-ui dashboard…but I dont see the post type icon/option in admin. Not sure what happened, but it was fine until a week ago. Appreciate any help.

Not sure if it will solve your problem, but it won’t hurt to try.

Ok, looks like you’re using Gutenberg. I usually install classic editor plugin so I can use the standard version. It’s either one of your plugins causing this or someone added a function to strip p tags in your functions.php file

This is usually caused by a plugin you installed. Do you have TinyMCE Advanced? There is an option to stop the stripping of <p> tags in the settings.

Ok, I did try and change the settings and modify with css, but its not possible to get what I wanted because the way its coded…the content info of the event is outside of the wrapper where the title is. I needed to have them both inside the same div. Here is a screenshot of what it ends up looking like: https://res.cloudinary.com/marvel451/image/upload/v1563477847/Screen_Shot_2019-07-18_at_8.00.01_AM_ppbb3j.png

Thanks anyways for all your help.

That was what I needed, thanks!!

Laast questions, I changed vsel-widget-list.php to make the listed events look different, whats the chance there will be an update to that file in the future?

Ok, I see the variables in the function vsel_single_content, but Im not sure what I can do to modify it. Can you please explain, & thanks for your time on this.

Yes, I mean post date. The structure that your plugin has only shows the date of an event at the bottom. The client wanted it on the very top and I couldnt modify the css to do that. So..I was able to add the function to show the published date of the post at the top and then told the client to make sure the published date was the same as the event date.

The issue arises that scheduled posts dont show up on front end. I added a function to make the future posts show as published, but that caused an issue with events not being able to be deleted. Thats why I was asking if you know how I can get future posts to show without screwing up other functionality : )

Yes, you are correct. I was trying to ensure that posts with future dates show up as published, that was causing the delete issue. Do you know how I should go about getting future posts to have status published so they can show up on front end? Thanks.

And sorry for adding another question, but is there an easy way to include revisions of events posts without modifying the plugin files?

Thanks for the quick response. Yes, I know its using single.php, Im trying to modify the location of the dynamic data such as the date of the event.
