Reimplementing a nested view with blocks

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

A legacy nested View—where a parent View lists taxonomy terms and a child View lists posts assigned to each term—needed to be rebuilt using Toolset Blocks.

Solution:

Nested Views are not supported in the Block Editor, so any Views that require nesting must remain in Legacy mode.

This is the technical support forum for Toolset - a suite of plugins for developing WordPress sites without writing PHP.

Everyone can read this forum, but only Toolset clients can post in it. Toolset support works 6 days per week, 19 hours per day.

Hi there,

We're re-implementing a site built with the classic editor and legacy Toolset and updating it to use blocks.

We had a question about how to re-implement a nested view. The parent view is a list of taxonomy terms. The child view lists custom posts with that taxonomy term.

Here's a screencast walking through the question and some challenges:

Thanks for your guidance!

Hi Saul,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to use nested Views in the Block Editor. You will need to keep the Views you want to use as nested Views in Legacy mode.

Thanks.
