We would like to display an image galleries with arrows (mini slideshow style) in the views search results (Screenshot attached) The images do not need to open.

I have created a repeatable image field.

How would we do this?

[Beda]

The easiest would be to create a View, where you create a slider of those repeating fields.
Then, that View can be used in the View that shows the actual grid of your posts.

But it's cumbersome because Toolset Repeating Fields are not really intended to build galleries.

Easier if you create a new Post Field Group, assign it to your post type, and then add a repeating field group.
In the group, add your image Field.

Then, create your Posts, and each post, save as many repeating groups items as images in the slider.
Each item will be one image.

After, create a View, and query the new Repeating Group belonging to the Post in the Loop.
Then, as well add a pagination by one, updated with an AJAX call.
(See Screenshots)

Then, create a View that queries the actual posts.
There, in that View's loop, insert the above-created View.

This will now create a list of Posts, and for each post, a slide of the images you uploaded as repeating field group to it.
If you insert this into a page, you should see a list of posts with each a slider of images.

Styling can be added later to define the size and look of that slide

Thanks Beda, I have followed the step, but I am getting "No items found" for the gallery images - versteckter Link (Bottom of page)

Also if I create a CRED form for this, will users be able to add the images in the form?

Thank you so much for the steps, we had some issues with our server earlier today, and the staging site was copied over again, so I lost the changes that were made. Apologies.

I am trying to complete the steps on the live site now, would you be able to send some screen shots of step 2 and 3 or re-do the changes on the staging site?

Thanks Again for your help and support.

[Luo Yang]

As your request, I have done the changes again on the staging site:
1) Create a new repeating field group "galleries group" with image field:
versteckter Link

2) Edit the post
versteckter Link
Setup the image field values in group "galleries group"

3) Edit the View
versteckter Link
filter by:
Select items from the galleries group group that are a related to the current post in the loop.
