Hey there,

It looks like it’s a conflict with both the official BuddyPress and bbPress plugins. I Googled and some people have mentioned this being a WordPress problem, though I’m unsure. It seems to only happen when your plugin is activated, however (along with those two plugins).

EDIT: I tried this on two of the default themes as well as my custom theme.

Perfect, thank you!

For those that want to know: I used the tutorial in my post above to add a new column in the Dashboard. To display which type of post the user submitted, I added a “Hidden Field” to my forms and used these values:

Meta Key: type_of_post
Meta Value: Review

Repeated the same for my other custom post types, changing only the Meta Value and leaving the key the same.

Use this to display the type of post in your dashboard:

echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'type_of_post', true );

Ah, yes, CSS specificity. Thank you.
