According to your "The Benefits of Having Templates for Custom Types" documentation page, after I create a new custom post type, I should see an option on the "Toolset -> Dashboard" for creating a blank template and a new archive. However, on the plugin I'm using (Version 2.2.2), I don't see that. Instead, all I see is the existing templates (single.php and archive.php), with no option to create any new ones.

What am I missing?

Hi David

Content Templates and Custom WordPress Archives are a feature of Views and I believe you are only using Types.

With Types you need to edit your theme's PHP templates to modify your output. Views lets you do that (and more) in the browser.

Check this page to see how the Toolset components fit together: https://toolset.com/home/toolset-components/
