Enhancement: Please bring back UI settings for PORTFOLIO & TESTIMONIALS

### Impacted plugin

Jetpack

### What

Please bring back UI settings for PORTFOLIO & TESTIMONIALS

### How

According to the note on your docs here, it was removed from 14.4. Can someone explain why? Is there some long-term plan?

"Starting with Jetpack 14.4, if you’re using a block theme (such Twenty Twenty-Four), you may notice that Testimonials and Portfolios no longer appear in your WP Admin, even if Jetpack is active. This is expected behavior."
Source: [https://jetpack.com/support/custom-content-types/]()

To bring it back automatically, someone needs to already have 1 portfolio item (which doesn't help with new builds).
OR they need to add a filter to functions... which defeats the whole purpose of using a plugin with a UI... plugins with UI's are for people who don't want to do a bunch of coding all the time! ;-)

Portfolio, Testimonials, the nice Slideshow, etc are the main reasons I use Jetpack (.org install) on all my artist/portfolio sites.

Maybe some more context as to why it was removed would be enlightening? Is there some other plan for Block sites I am unaware of?

Review the Jetpack custom content types documentation and the block-theme behavior described in the issue; no source file or test is identified. Clarify the intended long-term behavior and acceptance criteria for Portfolio and Testimonials UI settings before locating the relevant implementation and tests; done means the agreed UI is available on new block-theme sites without the workaround.
