    So I made a new custom post type X.

    I also made a new post template for this new post type (a PHP file).

    When I go to my normal posts, this template is available under "Post Attributes".

    I enabled Supports > Page Attributes in the post type settings.

    But when I go to custom post type X, I can't select any template under "X Attributes". All I see is an 'order' field, where I can insert a number.

    I want to be able to select my custom post template for my custom post type created with MetaBox.

    Hi Herbie,

    To create templates for the post type, please follow this documentation https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/template-files-section/custom-post-type-template-files/

    For example:

    <?php
/*
Template Name: Full-width layout
Template Post Type: post, page, event, x-cpt-slug
*/
// Page code here...
