Is it possible to display the Search Controls and Pagination Controls for a View in different areas within that View?

I see that they are both edited in "Search and Pagination" and then this is then outputted with [wpv-filter-meta-html], but is there any way this can be split up?

For example, could I lay out a View like this:

Search Controls

Loop

Pagination Controls

Hi Ben,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Yes this is actually possible you can place the pagination shortcode in any of the editors within your view.

Thanks,

Thanks Shane. Is this also possible for other search and filter elements? Or just pagination?

Hi Ben,

It is possible by moving around the [wpv-filter-meta-html] shortcode, however this must remain in the same view.

Is it that you want the filter output to be somewhere else on the same page?

Please let me know.
Thanks,
Shane

Thank you Shane. I don't think that is what I want to achieve.

Can I use the different elements usually found between [wpv-filter-controls] outside of these tags and directly into the Loop Editor?

Or is there another way of having multiple groups of these elements in different places?

I hope this makes some sort of sense.

Hi Ben,

Actually no its not possible to do this.

However you can add the filter to multiple places on a page because it is possible to separate the actual results from the filter.

So whe you are adding the view to a page, then you are presented with the option of just adding both results and search, results only or search only.

Also if your page supports widgets then you also have a WP Views filter widget that you can add which would only add the filters to your sidebar.

I'm more than happy to help you set this up as best as possible and walk you through the steps.

Please let me know.
Thanks,
Shane

Thank you for all your help with this Shane.

I can use the option to just insert the filter to achieve what I wanted to achieve.
