It seems difficult to create such a link because I need to create Views as a block on the frontend , not separately somewhere in the Toolset backend, and then added as shortcode in Text and Views block. In new version of Toolset, Views now only can be created on the frontend...
So again how to get textual link to already created custom post such is "Contractor"?
So I can put in conditional text with a link , for example: " Your Contractor profile is already created, you can see it HERE!" (HERE is a link).

Thank you in advance.

Hi there,

It is still possible to use the legacy version of views which will expose the view as a shortcode and you can use that.

Here is how to enable the legacy mode:

- Go to "Toolset > Settings > General".
- Find the "Editing experience" section.
- Check the "Show both the legacy and Blocks interface and let me choose which to use for each item I build" checkbox.
- Reload the browser page.
- Go to the newly added "Toolset > Views" menu.
- There you will be able to edit the views.

So you will add the view in a legacy mode and then use the view shortcode which will generate the link:

Thanks.
