I am trying to create a category list page that shows a grid of all categories(created in Toolset 'Taxonomies') for one CPT(created in Types), and shows the images associated with each category(created in Toolset 'Term Fields'). How can I do this either with the Views plugin, or PHP in a custom page template?

I found the Taxonomy option in Views to create a category view. I created one, then created a page and assigned the Content Template to that View. The page didn't show my custom View if I didn't use the View shortcode. What's the point of the Content Template page option if you need to use the shortcode?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Could you please give a test example what exactly output you are looking for and also give information about your current setup, taxonomies, CPT etc.. etc..

My original problem was solved, but I was wondering what the Content Template dropdown is for. Is it best to use the View shortcode, or the Content Template dropdown to display a View on a page?
