[wp-testers] Custom Post Types Are Not Added To Menu editor?

[Paul Robinson]

Turned out it was because (for some reason) it was automatically
turned off in the Screen Options. I'm now going to hit myself for not
checking that in the first place.

Thanks for the help Dion & Christian. Oh and I know it's early yet,
but is there any projected release for 3.0 yet? I'd heard May?

Paul.
