I am creating a page that has 3 columns. The middle column displays a Views output but I would like the search/filter controls to be in the left-hand column, intermixed with other content. In the attached wireframe you can see the controls in the left column and the output in the middle column. The content just above the controls would be unrelated to the View.

How do I go about doing this in the Content Template? Thanks.

Hi Aaron,

Thank you for getting in touch. You can have your view in search filters in a left column and the results on the right. However the problem is that you won't be able to split up the search form into multiple instances as you want it.

The search form will need to be rendered in one go.

Thank,
Shane

Okay, so all of the content layout then needs to happen inside the view itself, correct? Does Toolset still use the bootstrap column layout as how to lay these out? Sounds like I'll need to do some coding.

Are you referring to the content that is being displayed by the view or the entire page's content ?

Does Toolset still use the bootstrap column layout as how to lay these out?

Yes we still have bootstrap to handle the column layouts.

Thanks,
Shane

Meaning, I can't have the search/filter controls living outside the view itself. So - I don't think I can build the columns in the content template. I think I need to build the columns in the view itself, and then put the controls in the left column and the output in the middle column.

You can have the search filters separated from view results. You can actually pull just the filter only and just the results only as 2 separate shortcode.

Example

[wpv-form-view name="my-view" target_id="self"] <---Displays only the search bar

[wpv-view name="my-view" view_display="layout"] <--- Displays only the results

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane

Okay, so can I have the "search bar only" shortcode in one area of my content template, the "results only" shortcode in another area of my content template, and still have the search bar properly updating the results? Thanks.
