Views is a WordPress plugin that lets you easily customize the standard WordPress listing pages using WordPress archives. You can redesign any WordPress archive, including custom post archives, taxonomy archives, author archives and search results.

The customer wanted to enable users to filter archives on their website hosting academic texts, similar to how search results can be filtered. The customer specified that they needed the ability to filter texts by various criteria like publication year and language when viewing a specific category of texts. While they could easily set this up in a search view, they were unsure how to implement it in an archive view.
Solution:
We guided the customer to utilize the "Screen Options" tab available when editing the archive. By expanding this tab, they could enable search sections that are typically used when editing a View. This feature had been previously introduced in a pop-up when they first created a custom archive, which they may have dismissed.
The customer was advised to explore these options to achieve the desired filtering functionality for their archives.
The content on the blog archive page is not fully translated. A slider added to the archive template appears correctly in the default language (Spanish), but in other languages (e.g., English), a different slider from another plugin is shown. The archive pages sometimes show French as the default language instead of Spanish, indicating a potential conflict between WPML and Toolset.
Solution:
The customer discovered that the plugin "Post Types Order" by Nsp Code was causing the issue. This plugin created different template versions for each language and changed the default language of existing templates.
Deactivating and reactivating plugins one by one helped identify the culprit.
The customer removed the "Post Types Order" plugin, which resolved the issue.
