Tell us what you are trying to do? I want to create post type which has a main page called "solutions" and it has 3 subcategories namely 1.Education Management 2. Business Solutions 3.

Sub taxonomies for Education Management.png

Hi Tcoffee,

Thank you for contacting Toolset support. Please follow the steps below:

1. Create the custom post type with the name Solution.

2. Add the Taxonomies >> set as Hierarchical - (like post categories, with parent / children relationship and checkboxes to select taxonomy ) like Education Management. Please see the screenshot.

In this way you can create the taxonomies as many as you want, it will create relationship with the Custom Post type automatically. Also you can create the subcategories (terms) for the Educational Management.

Thank you

Okay, now able to see the screenshots.

This is the new syntax for Views shortcodes while using Page builders (Divi builder). Are you using any page builder in your site? If yes, then new syntax is ok and should work without any issue.

If you are not using any page builder in your site, then this is a known issue and we have an errata / fix for this issue, please backup your site & apply this patch by following instructions here:

You are using very old version of Views, please make sure to update ALL toolset plugins to latest versions and then check it:

Hello Tcoffee,

1. To show the Taxonomies on the Solution page, please create a normal WP Page >> and use the VC page builder >> use the text and image elements to show the custom taxonomies on the page.

2. For the Terms page you need to create the new VIEW for each of the terms. For example, you can create the Education Management Terms View:

- Add new view >> from content selection select the taxonomy
- Set the layout from Loop Output Editor by clicking the Loop Wizard button then follow the instructions >> Save the view.
- Create the page with this view by click the button. Please see the attached screenshots.

Thanks
