 > hi! I noticed that custom posts types cannot be used in Starter Content.
 CPTs are registered in the `init` hook, way after starter content is
 loaded in `after_theme_setup`. Is this a known issue? thanks!

 > Hi! Well, they literally cannot be used in any way. Adding a post of a
 CPT in starter content gives me a warning in the customizer. I’m testing
 this with WooCommerce that registers the CPTs on `init`. This is not a
 problem with the default post types because they get registered two times,
 in `wp-settings.php` and then again on the `init` hook.
