[Resolved] Creating a simple list of posts

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The user would like to build an A-to-Z index of posts.

Solution:
You can implement this using a custom taxonomy that will hold the letters(A-Z) and assigning posts to the terms that correspond to them. For example, the post "accountant aa" will be assigned to the term "A". Then you can use two views.
One taxonomy view that will output the terms(From A to Z), and inside of its loop, a view that will output the posts within this term.

Tell us what you are trying to do?
I'm trying to create a list of posts where I just use the title of the post that links to it's corresponding post.

Is there a similar example that we can see?
Yes, hidden link

If I know how to make a list of posts with just the letter A, I can recreate it for the rest of the alfabet. I've done it manually, but that's not convenient for the future. Obviously it's way better to pull the post titles (linked) automatically.

What is the link to your site?
hidden link

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

I think that you can implement this using a custom taxonomy that will hold the letters(A-Z) and assigning posts to the terms that correspond to them. For example, the post "accountant aa" will be assigned to the term "A". Then you can use two views.
One taxonomy view that will output the terms(From A to Z), and inside of its loop, a view that will output the posts within this term.

Please note that taxonomy views are not yet available in the block editor, and you will need to build it with the legacy editor. To activate both editors, go to Toolset->Settings->General(tab)->Editing Experience.
