Hi I've been trying to follow the tutorials and just generally getting in a mess. I think initially its been down to my sites editor as I have a heavy dislike for Gutenberg and blocks so I usually use a plugin which disables it (I tend to use WP Bakery). I've turned the disable Gutenberg off for now as the block editor seems the only real effective option for Toolset. The main area that I've been struggling with is following the views and content templates tutorials and getting the content to view on the front end. I'm happy with all the custom fields and taxonomy but creating a new page and then adding a view doesn't bring up the window to choose a new or existing view or the layout design options. All I get is a message "This block has encountered an error and cannot be previewed." on the main page as shown in the screenshot.
The main areas I'm trying to do is to show a custom post type with locations on a map. One of the custom fields is a radio selection of areas which I'd like to use for a query to only show posts which have a particular area selected. So the plan would be to repeat this for each selection which would be 5 map lists overall, all for different regions.
Then in addition to that I would be using a custom shop page showing products which I think I've managed to sort ok. (that was more luck I think...)
Is there any documentation that you are following?
Hi Minesh
Thanks but I'm a long way from that as I've not been able to actually create a view to add. The issue I have is more with creating the views and the setup not reacting anything like the tutorials. I just seem to be going round in circles. I really want to use Toolset as I think it's exactly what I need but I just can't seem to create the views and templates to proceed.
That is really strange. Have you activated the legacy views? if yes: then once you reload the admin dashboard you will see a menu:
Toolset => Views
Where you can click on button to add new view. If that's not the case please send me admin access details and I'll review whats going wrong with your setup and please share details where exactly you want to add view with what post/page/content template.
*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.
I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.
It seems there is issue with WordPress 6.2 and Toolset updates as I found that the Toolset map block does not get rendered and it throws the following message on screen when you try to add the map block:
This block has encountered an error and cannot be previewed.
If you want to use blocks then you will have to wait a bit until we fix this, otherwise I can show you how you can add map with markers and also display the items under the map using the classic view.
You can build the view's loop using the view's content template and add as many fields as you want to display to the following view's loop content template:
=> hidden link
