jww

Site is under development and I'm testing out if Toolset will meet my needs.
1. Can you display multiple custom post types on the same map?
2. Can each custom post type have its own marker icon?
3. I'm not seeing a multi-select in the custom field types? That seems like a huge gap in the offering if not.
4. I want to allow users on the front end to edit their listing. I want to let them enter in multiple contact points via a repeater. I think I see that is easy to do. But what about this...then on the front end, I want it to link to a contact form going to that email address, without showing the email address.
5. Can you search in multiple custom post types at the same time with search filters?

Thanks

Hello

Q1) Can you display multiple custom post types on the same map?

Yes, you can select multiple custom post types in view block, so you can query posts of multiple custom post types.
See our document
https://toolset.com/course-lesson/creating-a-view/

Q2) Can each custom post type have its own marker icon?
Yes, you can display different marker icon for each post type, for example, you can use shortcode [wpv-conditional] to check the current post's post type value, and display different map marker, like this:

[wpv-conditional if="('[wpv-post-type]' eq 'cpt1')"]
Map Marker 1 shortcode here...
[/wpv-conditional]
[wpv-conditional if="('[wpv-post-type]' eq 'cpt2')"]
Map Marker 2 shortcode here...
[/wpv-conditional]
