    Hello
    I need to create a few cpt's incl. taxonomies and some custom fields - what's the best way to do this - have been looking into toolset (wp-types.com) and I was wondering whether anybody else is using it and how well it integrates with Genesis? what's your experience - maybe it's overkill?

    Thanks

    Just use the standard register_post_type(), register_taxonomy() and add_post_type_support() functions as per WordPress codex in your functions.php.

    As far as custom fields go, lots use Advanced Custom Fields plugin (ACF) however code junkies that don't want or like GUIs go for Custom Meta Boxes 2 (CMB2) https://github.com/webdevstudios/CMB2

    All plays nicely with Genesis.
