Hi,

1. In legacy view, the message "No items found" is always shown in table view. I tried changing to other string in loop editor but doesn't take effect.

[wpv-no-items-found]
[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]Nothing to see here[/wpml-string]
[/wpv-no-items-found]

2. I can't seem to find the option to change the placeholder of a select box in Relationship form. How can I change "Search for a post" to something else?

Thank you.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

At a time I will take one question.

Do you mean you do not want to display anything when there is no items found by views? if yes:

You can simply remove the text from no items found:

[wpv-no-items-found]
[/wpv-no-items-found]

Hi Minesh,

No, I want to change the text in [wpv-no-items-found] but for some reason it always shows "No items found" even if I remove the text.

Can you please share problem URL and admin access details and let me check whats going wrong with your setup.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

When I try to access the wp-admin it shows the message "you dont have permission to access this page".

Can you please grant/share admin rights so that I can access the backend.

Can you please try to change the "No items found" message with the following view:
- hidden link

And check if that help you to resolve your issue.

There were no problem.

You use nested views (view inside view),

If you see the following view's loop output:
=> hidden link

<td>[types field="donor-id"][/types]</td>
<td>[wpv-post-link]</td>
<td>[types field="donor-email"][/types]</td>
<td>[types field="donor-address"][/types]</td>
<td>[types field="donor-phone"][/types]</td>
<td>[types field="donor-since"][/types]</td>
<td>[types field="paid-until"][/types]</td>
<td>[types field="last-trans"][/types]</td>
<td>[types field="memo"][/types]</td>
<td>[types field="donor-status"][/types]</td>
<td>[wpv-view name='students-belongs-singe-donor']</td>

As you can see the view "students-belongs-singe-donor" is added to above view. So you need to change the "No Items found" text on the following view as well.
- hidden link

I see. Thanks for the clarification.
