 * We had to revert back to 3.5.6.3 to get custom fields to show up for custom post
   types.

 * I’m using v3.5.7.2. You need to make sure that you update your permalinks when
   you add new custom post types or they won’t work correctly.

 * Are they defined corectly, had issues when I used plugins, if defined manually
   they work perfectly with all of the custom posts
 *     ```
       add_action( 'init', 'create_clients' );
       function create_clients() {
       	 $labels = array(
           'name' => _x('Clients', 'post type general name'),
           'singular_name' => _x('Client', 'post type singular name'),
           'add_new' => _x('Add New', 'Client'),
           'add_new_item' => __('Add new Client'),
           'edit_item' => __('Edit client'),
           'new_item' => __('New client'),
           'view_item' => __('View client'),
           'search_items' => __('Search clients'),
           'not_found' =>  __('No clients found'),
           'not_found_in_trash' => __('No clients found in Trash'),
           'parent_item_colon' => ''
         );
   
         $supports = array('title',  'page-attributes');
   
         register_post_type( 'clients',
           array(
             'labels' => $labels,
             'public' => true,
             'supports' => $supports,
             'hierarchical' => true
           )
         );
       }
       ```
