Topic Tag: Views

Problem: I have a View with results shown in a grid. The featured images shown in each grid item have inconsistent heights, making the grid appear misaligned.

Solution: Use the height and width attributes in the featured image shortcode to include the featured image at smaller dimensions. This will work with the responsive elements already in place to display the images at a more predictable size and proportion.

Problem:
Recent Table not in Descending order as it should be

Solution:
There is third-party plugin "Post Type Order" installed on users site that was overriding the view's order setting. Disabling the "Post Type Order" help user to resolve the issue.

You can find the proposed solution, in this case, with the following reply:

Problem: I am using a View of child posts nested inside a View of parent posts to display parent and child post information. I would like to filter out parents that do not have any children.

Solution: There is no built-in way to filter out childless parent posts, so the solution requires custom code. Another ticket in the forum discusses this approach:

add_filter('wpv_filter_query', 'jobs_with_bewerbungs_func', 101, 3);
function jobs_with_bewerbungs_func($query, $view_settings, $view_id) {
  $views = array( 84 );
  $relationship_slug = 'job-bewerbung-multis';
  $parent_type_slug = 'job';
  // you should not edit anything below this line
  if ( in_array( $view_id, $views ) ) {
    $ids = array();
    $parents_args = array(
      'post_type' => $parent_type_slug,
      'numberposts' => -1,
    );
    $parents = get_posts( $parents_args );
    foreach($parents as $parent) {
      $children = toolset_get_related_posts(
        $parent->ID,
        $relationship_slug,
        'parent',
        1000000,
        0,
        array(),
        'post_id',
        'child'
      );
      if( !is_array($children) || count($children) < 1 ) {
        array_push( $ids, $parent->ID );
      }
    }
    $query['post__not_in'] = isset($query['post__not_in']) ? $query['post__not_in'] : array();
    $query['post__not_in'] = array_merge($query['post__not_in'], $ids );
  }
  return $query;
}
