The integration between Toolset and Divi theme makes it easy to add custom content to Divi and display it, on the front-end. You can use Divi Builder with Toolset to design templates for your custom post types and archive pages.
Problem: I am unable to see my custom posts at the single post URL, or in the results of a View.
Solution:
- Temporarily deactivate all plugins except Types and Views, then activate a default theme like Twenty Seventeen.
- Go to wp-admin > Settings > Permalinks and select a permalink structure like "Month and Name", then save the permalinks again.
- Edit the linda-hedlund-new post and check the permalink. Visit the post on the front-end of the site.
- If the post still does not appear, go to Toolset > Post Types and edit this post type. Check the Options panel and be sure that Rewrite is checked, and "Use the normal WordPress URL logic". Make sure "show_ui" and "publicly_queryable" are checked.
- Save permalinks again and test again.
For example, if you have 3 layers of terms:
GrandParent
- Parent
-- Child
Each has several posts added to it, which you can display in a separate list, that you can reach starting on a Page where only "GrandParent" posts are shown and links to "Parent" and "Child".
To do that:
- create a View that queries your Taxonomy and set a filter as in:
"Select taxonomy terms whose parent is None."
- Add some post information to the loop, or any other data you want to display
- Add the View to any page and see in the front end only data about grand parent terms
- Now add a View which again queries the Taxonomy, this time has a Query filter as:
"Parent is the taxonomy selected by the parent Taxonomy View"
- Again complete the Loop with the information you want to display
- Now insert this View to the loop of the View you created first (and inserted to the page)
- Reload that page and see, that now you have a list of Grandparent Terms and a list of Parent Terms.
- Repeat these steps for the lowest "Child" terms and insert the View to the second created View.
This can be repeated for basically as many times you want.
It allows you to query the data depending on the currently looped content, and link to whatever related page/post/taxonomy term.
You would need to add there HTML and CSS yourself to group and style it like you show, but with the Toolset Views Loop Wizard you should already be able to cut a good part of that as well.
Problem: I would like to use the Divi video slider module to display videos from posts related to the current post in a many-to-many (M2M) relationship.
Solution: Unfortunately the Divi video slider module does not allow you to insert shortcodes for dynamic or integrate with Views. This is a limitation of the Divi video slider module.
