Description

The custom content type other than the basic blog or page is not working in the Page Specific Visibility Settings for the second selection "Show Only on the Listed Pages". If I put a custom content type called position_post/* it does not work. The block does not show up. If I point to the actual node created from the content type ie. node/518 it works. That does not work for me because I would have to manually do that when I add a new instance of the node from my custom content type called position_post. Please review. Thanks.

Hi ddbell

It sounds like this is to do with block visibility settings, which is part of drupal itself not author_contact.

The 'show only on listed pages' option works based on the URL, so you have to using the path module and optionally pathauto so that your URLs for the custom type all start with the same path. Then you can select to only show the block on pages where the URL contains that path.

Try looking for more help here: http://drupal.org/node/21870

Does that help?
