Tell us what you are trying to do?

on universeeing.com I am trying to put a link list / Post title with link below the title methods.
This is working fine on the same page further below. But with the post type methods for some reason it doesnt work and I dont know what to do.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Yes sure, the Toolset documentation. And it was working before.

Is there a similar example that we can see?
Yes below at the same page

What is the link to your site?
universeeing.com

I would like you to check

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

To troubleshoot this, I'll need to see how this view is set up in the admin area. Can you please share temporary admin login details, in reply to this message?

Note: Your next reply will be private and it is recommended to make a complete backup copy, before sharing the access details.

regards,
Waqar

Thanks for writing back.

I tried to log in using the username and password that you've shared, but I keep seeing the "incorrect username and/or email address" message.

Can you please check the username and password again?

I'm setting your next reply as private.

Thank you for sharing the admin access.

I noticed that in the view "Effective_Methods", no post type was selected, in the content selection settings.

I've selected the "Methods" post type and the view is showing results now.

Thanks for helping me out.

But:

1. How did you do that. I was not able to see or pic the "methods" post type within the view (or I couldnt see it because of to less space)
2. It is showning now in English and german in the english page. The german page shows still no link list. Can you help me here so I can do it in future on my own. BTW the post type is translated (slug is "methoden")

Thanks
Jens

Hi Waqar,

thanks. I think my message right now did not go out.

1. How did you do that? I want to be able to do it in future myself. I did not see the methods post type.
2. The links are showing up now in english and german at the same time. How can I make sure it just shows in english on the english page and in german on the german page (slug methoden). On the german page there is nothing to see currently

Thanks
Jens

Thanks for writing back.

1. Here are the steps that I followed:

a). I opened the edit screen of your website's homepage at:
{yourwebsite.com}/wp-admin/post.php?post=10&action=edit

b). I noticed that the view named "Effective_Methods" was added to show the list under the "Methods" heading.
( screenshot: hidden link )

c). In that view's "Content Selection" settings, no post type was selected, so I selected the post type "Methods" and saved the page
( screenshot: hidden link )

2. On the German language version of your website's homepage, no "Methods" are showing because, all 10 "Methods" posts are in English and none of them have been translated into German, yet.
( screenshot: hidden link )

Once you've translated them into the German language, they start showing in the German language version of the homepage too.
