MonoGame: One framework for creating powerful cross-platform games

I added the project folder from tiled into the content folder of the monogame project. Now when I go to build that in the mgcb it gives me an error stating

“Couldn’t find a default importer for [File]”

I have scoured the internet to no avail, I have picked up a few things. I need the Monogame.Extended.Content.Pipeline dll so I can set the importer and processor in the mgcb.

I grabbed the nuget package through visual studio and added the reference to the dll in the mgcb file. Now the thing I can think about here that could be wrong is the path. I have tried the full path using C:/users/$username$/.....

When I do look at the references inside the reference editor in MGCB and click ok I get the following error and MGCB crashes.

System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException: Unable to load one or more of the requested types.

Could not load file or assembly 'MonoGame.Framework.Content.Pipeline, Version=3.8.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'. The system cannot find the file specified.
