Slider Dynamic Sources Not Working

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

Problem:

I've created a view to display dynamic image sources in an image slider, even though I've selected dynamic sources, and it's supposed to be pulling images from that post only, every single post with this view is displaying the same images.

Solution:

You need to add a filter: limit the post view "Gallery Slider" to query only current "Plan Your Visit" post, for example:

I've created a view to display dynamic image sources in an image slider like you see on this page: hidden link

Even though I've selected dynamic sources, and it's supposed to be pulling images from that post only, every single post with this view is displaying the same images.

See this page for an example: hidden link
Instead of the train images, there should be an image of the Bed & Breakfast.

Another example where the images are wrong: hidden link

I'm attaching screenshots of my setup in case I've missed something.

Hello,

You need to add a filter to limit the post view "Gallery Slider" to query only current "Plan Your Visit".

I have done below modifications in your website:
Dashboard-> Toolset-> Settings-> Custom code, add one item "slider-filter", with below codes:

add_filter('wpv_filter_query', function($query_args, $view_settings, $view_id){
  if($view_id == 223457){ // specific view ID
    $query_args['p'] = get_the_ID();
  }
  return $query_args;
}, 99, 3);

Please test again, check if it is what you want.

Thank you! I'm not sure how I was supposed to know code needed to be added, but I'm glad the problem is resolved.
