Hi,

I have a question regarding the view plugin.

1. How can I create a view for the single post?
2. How can I create a view for Archive page?
3. Is repeatable fields groups only to display for a specific post or page by the view. Because custom fields can be displayed on all the pages or post. and the template can be designed by Elementor. And custom fields can be displayed on a specific post and page as well.
4. For example. if I create a repeatable group I want to show. It will be shown on multiple pages or a specific page? And can repeatable fields group can be shown by Elementor?

Maybe I am not correct I thing repeatable fields only can be shown by the view in a specific page.

I have a question regarding the view plugin.
You have 5 questions regarding the Views plugin 🙂 Please create separate tickets for each question in the future so we can keep the forum organized.

Please review our documentation for using Toolset with Elementor:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/using-toolset-with-elementor-page-builder/

1. How can I create a view for the single post?
If you want to design the single post page with Toolset, create a Content Template and assign it to the post type. You can create a new Content Template by going to Toolset > Content Templates. The same template will be applied to all posts in the post type. Unfortunately Content Templates are not compatible with Elementor. You should use Elementor Pro to create templates for an Elementor site.

2. How can I create a view for Archive page?
If you want to style the archive of a post type or taxonomy, go to Toolset > WordPress Archive and create a new WordPress Archive. Assign the WordPress Archive to some post type or taxonomy. Toolset's WordPress Archives are not compatible with Elementor. You should use Elementor Pro to create archive templates for an Elementor site.

3. Is repeatable fields groups only to display for a specific post or page by the view.
Create a View to display repeatable field groups. Add a post relationship filter to choose the post containing the repeatable field group.

4. For example. if I create a repeatable group I want to show. It will be shown on multiple pages or a specific page?
If you create a View of repeatable field groups, you can display it on a specific page or you can display it on multiple pages. It will not be shown anywhere automatically, you must add the View to a template.

5. And can repeatable fields group can be shown by Elementor?
You must create a View to display repeatable field groups. Then you can insert that View in an Elementor design. Go to any Page and click "Fields and Views" above the content editor. You can choose your View and select options for the View. Then a shortcode will be placed in the Page content. Cut that shortcode and paste it into an Elementor Text block.
