 * Great plugin, looking at extensions, but I need it to recognize a CPT which it’s
   currently not finding. Using WP Job Manager and while it can recognize the Resume
   CPT it doesn’t find the Applications CPT. Thoughts?
 * Thx

 * Hi Scot, by default, not public CPTs are not available. You can [add them with this filter](https://docs.bracketspace.com/docs/enable-support-for-non-public-custom-post-type/).

 * Of course, should have found that post. So does this mean the permalink )and 
   other_ merge tags won’t work at all with non-public CPTs or only with some customization?
 * BTW, not everyone would know where to edit that filter code to add their CPT,
   might be nice to show an example (e.g. ‘portfolio’).
 * Thanks!

 * I mean that the merge tags will return generic frontend link, but it probably
   won’t work. You would want to compose the `/wp-admin/edit.php?post={cpt_ID}` 
   link to direct users to the edit screen.
