Tell us what you are trying to do?
I'm refreshing sections of the site using elementor, and the same short code used to display 'brothers' can't work.
In Step 2 of the documentation below, will it work if the Child Content Template is created using elementor?

Is there any documentation that you are following?
https://toolset.com/documentation/legacy-features/views-plugin/displaying-brother-pages/

Is there a similar example that we can see?

hidden link (Toolset content template, expected results)
hidden link (Toolset content template, expected results)
hidden link (Elementor content template, unexpected results)

What is the link to your site?

The key for this to work is using a content template called with the id="$parent" attribute to set the required context (the parent page template in the linked article).

That template must be a Toolset template.

I wouldn't expect it to matter if you designed the main (child) template with Elementor, and inserted the parent template as described with the id attribute, in a text module.

I don't know for sure that it will work. This would be one of those cases where, if it does, it does, and if it doesn't it doesn't, I'm afraid.

Hello,

In the URL mentioned above:
hidden link
I see a broken shortcode:

" birthdate="1556496000"]

It seems there are some wrong settings in your website, please make sure you are using pure text widget to display those shortcodes.

For Elementor page builder, please try text widget:
hidden link

My issue is resolved now.

Placing the shortcode using the elementor short code widget produces the earlier error i had.
Placing the shortcode using the text editor widget solves the issue.

Thank you!
