    Hello,

    This could be an issue due to plugin updates, we will test it.

    Hi webbing,

    I think the recent Toolset Types update somehow broke this. Here is how to fix that while waiting for the official XML to be reviewed:

    1. On the dashboard sidebar, hover to Types > Taxonomies.
    2. You will see 5 entries named Group. Open the Edit link in a new tab for each one.
    3. The Slug needs to be assigned to the correct Post Type, which is as follows: 
      partner-group = Partners
porfolio-group = Portfolio
services-group = Services
slider-group = Slider
testimonials-group = Testimonials
    4. Check the correct box under Post Types to be used with this Taxonomy for each Slug.
    5. Click Save Taxonomy.

    This solution should work. Also soon we will update Types plugin import files.

    @katrna Can we copy/paste your text in to our website? 🙂

    thank you
    it has worked and now i can do more.

    the only difference is the word “group” is no more appearing

    Oh, right. You’ll find the updated XML on my PasteBin–it should restore everything back to normal. Here’s how to import the file in case you need guidelines:

    1. Click the download button found on this paste.
    2. Change the file’s extension from .txt to .xml.
    3. On the dashboard pane, click Types.
    4. At the bottom, select Import/Export.
    5. Click Choose File and point to the pertinent XML file.
    6. Click Import file > Import.

    Shufflehound, you are more than welcome to do so, but don’t you agree that the XML would be better? I’ve made two revisions: a.) one that has been fixed and works with the latest version of Types and b.) another which is also the same file, but has been updated to no longer import Contact settings and Slider other settings.

    Feel free to use whichever you fancy.

    Thank you for your help.

    Types XML is now updated in our website.
