Ok so I made this map in regular forge and it is meant for a capture the flag game. I made it in the default forge and made a CTF game type and after going into a custom the game told me that the game type was not suitable for the map variant. One of my friends told me that I had to change the forge game type to capture the flag. So I did this in forge and made it so the spawns were meant for ctf under the advanced option of the spawn items.

After this I went back to custom games and loaded up the new map with the ctf spawns (and yes there are two flags in on the map with one red and one blue) and it still said that the CTF game type wasn't suitable for the map... I'm frustrated and I don't know what to do, the map only accepts slayer and the map is only meant for Capture the flag...

Please only respond to this if you have a real answer of if there is another thread that you can lead me to that can maybe answer my question which is why arn't any of the gametypes excluding slayer not suitable for the map variant...

Thanks.

Your friend is right--you have to set up CTF objectives under the CTF gametype in Forge before your map will play CTF. To do this, you need to place flag stands for each team and give it the CTF_FLAG_RETURN label. You don't need to make spawns CTF specific, so you should take that off. The only thing you need for Flag to work is the label above. Don't worry about res_zone or any other label. If your map is only meant for flag, you'll be fine.
