Display caldera's custom post type entry on the backend post editor

  • Hi! Please help me!
    I’m trying to configure a caldera form to be used as a custom post type front-end editor.
    When configuring the Save as Post Type settings, what value should I enter on Post Status?
    I already entered “Published” , but when added a new post, the entry is displayed on the caldera form entry list but not on the admin panel post (custom post type) tab. And the custom metabox fields generated with the caldera form are not displayed on the custom post backend editor.
    How can I fix this, and how can I display each meta field on the custom post type page theme?

    Use “publish” not “published” if you want to show in the WordPress post admin.

    Thank you Josh! I can see the caldera metabox appears on the backend editor once I submit a post from the front end. But when I want to add a new post from the backend, the custom fields are not shown. How do I make them visible on the post editing backend page when adding a new post?

    Also, I’d really appreciate any suggestions on how to edit the custom post type single page template with a live page builder plugin. I’m currently using Live Composer, which allows me to create templates, assign them as default templates for custom post types, and introduce html content within it’s modules, so I know I could display the meta info with magic tags, but when I open the single post page, it displays the default theme’s single post template. I know I can create a template with Caldera Metaplate plugin or with Pods Frontier Auto Template, but what I want is to be able to design that page template on the page builder plugin. Is this even possible?

    Thank you so much for your help. Hope your’e having a great day!
