Hello,
I have watched the videos but I can't seem to find out how to create a view and display it on a page.
The instructions say to "add a view block"... but the page doesn't look like the one in the video since I don't use Astra, and if I try to add a block from the WPBakery block list, no Toolset block is listed.
I did try to add a shortcode to a text block ([wpv-post-body view_template="modele-pour-concerts" suppress_filters="true"]) but no content is displayed, but the inspector shows there is something pulled from the Tooslet custom type I created and added posts to (see attached image).
1) What am I (obvioulsy) missing?
2) Is there a way to add the view to the page with WPBakery-compatible extensions or anything that makes it simple to do so?
Any help will be greatly appreciated, the website only lacks this to move forward 🙂
Best,
Ludovic

Hello Waqar,
Thanks for your illuminating reply. It was a bit more complicated since I’m not using a standard editor and compatible theme, but in the end it worked… almost 😀
A few things I haven’t been able to figure out:
- filter the events: if I don’t add a filter, all events are displayed, which is good… for now: when a concert has passed, I don’t want it to appear anymore. But as soon as I add a filter to show only future concert dates based on my custom field, I get a “no records found”. I’m obviously doing something wrong, but what? See attached image for the setting I use in the filter.
- In the custom field advanced section, I add a class name and then set properties for this class in my CSS… but it’s not taken into account (you can - or cannot, actually 🙂 - see it in the concert date field on the hidden link page.) Again, what am I doing wrong?
- I'm having trouble displaying repeating fields. I've set them up apparently fine, and filled them when available, but I'm unable to add them to the content template? No fields appear when I select the custom field group for the cd (see second attached image.) I'm probably missing something very basic... but what?
- In the video about the photographers list (), a “stackable block” called “image box” is used, to absolutely great effect. This is not, if I understand correctly, part of Toolbox. Where does it come from? The Astra theme? A page editor/builder? (If it’s from Astra, I hope it’s from the free version :-))
Thanks again and best regards,
Ludovic
