I expected to see:
WHEN I ENTER A CONTENT TEMPLATE SHORTCODE INTO TEXT AREA IT DISPLAYS LIKE THIS
[wpv-post-body view_template="byty-detail"] hidden link
Instead, I got:
KALLYAS THEME PAGE BUILDER DISPLAYS LIKE THIS
display all the fields but it displays like this hidden link
Hi Nigel, first - I love wptypes....it is the best plugin I have ever seen - now....I have made a content template REAL ESTATE. When I put a NEW HOUSE with custom fields like PRICE, LOCATION etc. (ABOUT 20 FIELDS) it appears in admin.
But when I want to display it there in only TITLE and DESCRIPTION on front end. When I want to display all the fields I must enter a shortcode /content teplate/ into page description and then it displays corretly (but with some more fields).
I'm not sure if you are having problems because of your page-builder or whether you just need help setting up your templates and views. If you suspect there is a problem that relates to your page-builder then I suggest you temporarily switch to a default theme such as twentysixteen and/or disable the page-builder if it is a plugin and verify that the content you want to appear is being output.
So, you have made a custom post type to display houses to which you have added custom fields for extra content such as price etc., is that correct?
When you add custom fields to a custom post WordPress won't normally display them if you view the post. You need to tell it to output those fields in addition to the standard title and post body content. So, if you create a Content Template to display your House post type, for example, then you will need to design the output using the Views shortcodes to output your custom fields. Those custom fields will be visible when you use the "Fields and Views" button on the edit screen of your Content Template.
I have had a look and it should work fine. There must be a clash in a setuop. Kindly have a look. 1. When I add a NEW PROPERTY (POST TYPE) it looks like image EL1.jpg 2. When I add a shortcode into text post field with a content template it looks like EL2.jpg
- What is the URL? It is a single post of your Property post type?
- Are you using a Content Template for displaying property single posts? The Content Template needs to output your custom fields.
If you are not using a Content Template then none of your custom fields will be output, unless you add shortcodes to do so to each and every individual post.
YOU WROTE
If you are not using a Content Template then none of your custom fields will be output, unless you add shortcodes to do so to each and every individual post.
Sorry, I can see that the two pages look different, I don't know what is different about how the two pages are being generated, or why you can't use the same technique (the one that works) for both.
Could I get the site credentials from you to be able to log into the admin pages? Then I can look how the pages are being produced to see the difference.
I'll mark your next reply as private. Please ensure you have an up-to-date backup of your site. You may want to create a temporary admin user for me to use which you can later delete.
Firstly, apologies for the delay in getting back to you, I was travelling Friday and a number of other absences meant that no-one was able to cover my queue.
Thanks for sharing the site credentials. I'm guessing you have done some more work in the meantime, because the link above to an example of a page that does not display correctly gives a 404 result, you must have deleted it.
I visited a few pages which seem to be displaying correctly, so I can no longer see the problem.
Did you manage to fix it yourself?
Once again, sorry for the slow response, but if I can still help you then please let me know.
