[Resolved] Archive view with fields from related post

Tell us what you are trying to do?
I have two custom post types. Events and Speakers. Now I want to have a site where a list of all events is shown. That was no problem for me to create such a site. But for each event I also want to have the name of all speakers in the list. Therefore I created a many to many relationship. I linked the speakers in the events. But I'm not able to add speaker information (image, name) in the archive view of the events list.

Is there any documentation that you are following?
I watched many, many videos. You have real great documentation. I found videos how to display in a single post the related posts. But I found not how to get in an archive view the related infos. Maybe it's kind of a nested view, which Toolset not supporting yet.

I'm sorry if this is a silly question. Maybe there is already a video explaining what I need.

What is the link to your site?
hidden link

Thanks in advance
Alex

Hello, yes you are correct in that you must create a nested View to display a nested list of related posts. I helped in another ticket recently that includes step-by-step instructions for creating such a nested View using the legacy Views editor, since nested Views cannot currently be created in the Block Editor. You can find those instructions here:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/display-speaker-in-archive/

Unfortunately I'm not aware of any video tutorials for creating such a nested View, so if you have questions about the instructions from the other ticket please let me know.

Thanks a lot for your description. It worked perfect for me (even without video 😉 Now I can see the speakers.
I hope you can help me with a further question on this. I'm sure it's only a simple thing, but again I read through the huge amount of information about Toolset in the Internet, but found nothing what can help me.
As you see in the screenshot, my events are only shown on the half page. There are 3 events (one is below and not on the screenshot). I set the rows to 2, but cannot manage that the loop uses the whole page. My wordpress is using the Hello Theme, a very simple theme, working very good with Elementor.
The Archive page is called directly in the menu, because I found nothing how to insert a archive template in a page. So I cannot change site settings for the archive.

Hope I could explain good enough with my poor english.

Best regards
Alex

I'm sorry, but forget my last post. Sometimes it helps writing about a problem 😉 I found the issue. It was an Elementor template which made this issue.
Sorry and thanks for your help.

Okay great, In that case I think we can close out here. Feel free to open new tickets if necessary when you experience other issues.
