Tell us what you are trying to do?

The website is for hotel. I created a custom post type "Rooms & Suites" with taxonomy "Room types". I have for example two Room types: Category A, Category B.
I created also a new archive page for Rooms & Suites and I need to show that categories in my archive page.
I don't want the Room types to show in the same list, but separated in two lists based on the Room types I created.
I'm lost with toolset terminology.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

I'm trying with this one: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/using-a-child-view-in-a-taxonomy-view-layout/

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Wel - as I understand, you want to group your posts by category.

For example:

Category A
-- post 1
-- post 2
-- post 3
Category B
-- post 1
-- post 2
-- post 3

If Yes, you should create a new page that should display the categorized posts.

Please follow the following link:

Yes I want them in a groups, but they will not be just a list, I will pull also other content for every post like images and custom files. Finally I need to show all the above in the archive page, not just a simple page!

Hello,
I followed your method but I still have problem adding the list in the archive page.
It works on a normal page:
hidden link
But on an archive page it forces me to use one more loop and the list is repeated:
hidden link

Well - I understand what you mean BUT there is no way to group the posts by category on the post type archive that is why I shared the alternate solution that you need to use a page as your archive to display posts group by category.

I mention twice that I need to output the content on an ARCHIVE PAGE. So make it clear that it is not possible.
