Hi,

Toolset currently supports various views like gallery, table, masonry, map etc.I wanted to understand
1. Is there a way for me to add my own view say choropleth map or kanban view on top of it? If yes, can you point out to any relevant documentation or video around it?
2. Let's say I want to show my category archive page in gallery and list view? Is there a way to add a toggle for end-users to switch between both views? If yes, how can I do it?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Its not clear from the description you shared what exactly you would like to achieve.

You can create as many views as you want and place on the post or on content template. If you can really specific with your requirement and share few screenshots and point out what exactly you want to do then I will be able to guide you in the right direction.

1. Can I create my own map like this with toolset? Its a topojson based choropleth map (attached map image below)

2. If I want to show all my latest posts in gallery and list view. Can I add a dropdown or toggle in the theme/ website where user can select what view they want to see in all posts? (eg on map or list) see image views-1 attached below

I hope this clarifies!

No. There is no such feature available.

It seems you want to filter the view result based on the custom field lets say "city" where user can select the city from the dropdown and display that filtered result on the map. If that is correct, its possible.

Please check the following Doc:

Thank you for your prompt response.

For #2, it is not about filtering results. It is about switching between 2 views. I want to show only one view at a time in the frontend and let users toggle between say gallery view and list view. It is more like a view switcher.

Example: On facebook, I can see all my posts either in LIST view or GRID view. Can I add something like this with Toolset?

Ahh ok. No, there is no way feature available.

Maybe you can create one view in gallery mode and one view in list view mode and add the views to different tabs.

You can try with other Gutenberg plugin, for example:
