Thanks for your great help. One more thing I would like to trouble you again concerning the comments.

I am trying to use Toolset Layout to create account page for different users (authors). The comments received from the posts are put in the Dashboard=>Comments together. How to let the comments go to the account page automatically based on the same post author?

Are are available shortcodes or custom codes to use? Thanks again.

Hello,

I assume you are going to display all comments which are belongs to posts, and those post's author is same as current logged-in user.

It needs to query the comment by post author parameter, but Toolset Views does not support this feature, so it needs custom codes, for example:
1) Create a custom shortcode, add below PHP codes into your theme file functions.php:

add_shortcode('my-post-comments', function($atts, $content){
	if(!get_current_user_id()){ // guest user
		return;
	}
	$args = array(
		'post_author' => get_current_user_id(), // It will use the current logged in use to grab the comments
	);
	$comments = get_comments( $args );

	// Referer to http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_list_comments
	$list_args = array(
		'reverse_top_level' => false, // Show the latest comments at the top of the list
		'echo' => false,
	);
	$res = wp_list_comments( $list_args, $comments );
	return $res;
});

2) Display above shortcode like this:
[my-post-comments]
