I'm evaluating this plugin:

https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/types

Is there a way to link my CPT to a page within the UI? For example if I create the CPT 'Testimonials' and I have a page with the same name is it up to me to create a custom template and query for the testimonials or can this be done using the plugin's UI?

Hi Luke!

Thanks for your interest in Types.

Unfortunately, Types alone cannot achieve what you asked. You need either:

A) Develop your own custom template, query the testimonials CPT and show them on the page. Check these pages to learn how to do it:

* http://codex.wordpress.org/Page_Templates

B) Buy our companion product: Views. Views will help you to achieve that seamlessly. Check this page for more information:

Hope it helps!

Kind regards.
