I'm not clear what feature you're requesting.  Can you be more specific?

There's not a good way for you to do that in version 0.9.x or before -- but it 
is something I'm working on for the next release.  In versions 0.9.x and 
before, the post types are registered by the CCTM.php class by loading up 
stored configurations (from JSON stored in the database , not from a file), so 
they are not easily editable.

I also need this, but not only that, I also need to be ABLE TO ADD WHATEVER I 
LIKE to it.

Missing:
jetpack like
jetpack publicize
jetpack related posts
custom functions as I desire

You need a plaintext way of editing the array so we can manually add new 
things, i.e.
'supports' => array ( 'title', 'editor', 'excerpt', 'publicize', 'thumbnail', 
'comments', 'revisions', 'custom-fields', 'page-attributes', ),

whereas currently you only have:
'supports' => array ( 'title', 'editor' ),
and you have no way to edit it.

Can't be hard to just make a text field in the settings page of CCTM where I 
can enter ANYTHING like 'publicize' or 'customfunction' where 'customfunction' 
can be whatever I want to add and it will make it work by adding it to the 
array.

in the meantime I will be trying some other content type managers since the 
lack of ability to use native wordpress functions renders this extension 
completely useless.

I can do what I like with basic wordpress by adding in the custom fields but 
it's a PITA to do it EVERY POST which is why something like CCTM would be 
convenient if it worked.

Plaintext editing is definitely more customizable, but it's not as accessible 
to non-technical users.  In the next release, you'll have the ability to 
customize it this way.  It is a lot harder to do serious development in 
WordPress than most people realize and even simple changes are impossible to 
prioritize when nobody is willing to devote a budget to it.  In short, you get 
what you pay for.

True but it's good to at least have something like "enable developer mode" for 
people who do in fact know stuff, so that at least you have the functionality, 
even when you haven't had the chance to add it in yet. For now I found an 
alternate solution for my custom post types but if you can fix this then I'd 
love to start using CCTM again!

Basically all you need to do is add a text field in the admin to add more items 
into the array.
