Great thanks!

Is it also possible to style the Archive page (hidden link) without using the Archive view?
I want to style this page with different views that I have created myself.

Hi,

It is possible to insert the views in the archive view, but you'll have to create that archive using the classic/legacy archive editor and not the blocks editor.

When you'll create a new WordPress Archive from WP Admin -> Toolset -> WordPress Archives, as per your website's settings, it will be created using the blocks editor. But you can use the "User Classic Editor" button in the archive's settings, to switch to the classic/legacy editor.
( screenshot: hidden link )

In the classic/legacy archive editor, you can place the target view's shortcode, anywhere except for the loop of the archive.
( i.e. it shouldn't be inside the "<wpv-loop>...</wpv-loop>" tags, otherwise, the view's output will repeat for each of the results in the archive )

Example of the view's shortcode:
( ref: https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views/views-shortcodes/#wpv-view )


[wpv-view name="Name of the view"]

I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance with this.

regards,
Waqar
