This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I am using a Divi global module from my Library in the contents of a custom post. I also have a WordPress Archive for this post type where the Content Template for the Loop is designed with Divi Builder. I have inserted the wpv-post-body shortcode in the loop, followed by another shortcode wpv-post-title. Any shortcode after the wpv-post-body shortcode will display information from the wrong post on the archive.
Solution: Divi global modules seem to cause problems with post context, so you should add an explicit post ID attribute to any Toolset shortcodes that follow the wpv-post-body shortcode.

I am trying to:
build cpt single using a divi library item. Then, build an archive for the cpt.
Link to a page where the issue can be seen:
hidden link
I expected to see:
An archive that included
{!{wpv-post-body view_template="None"}!}
and
{!{wpv-post-title}!}
Instead, I got:
Post body displays fine however the wpv post title of the first cpt is repeated for each post.
More detailed explanation:
Divi uses items called 'modules' to build content. Example modules are 'Text', 'Slider', 'Gallery', etc.
A module can be saved as a 'Library Item'. Global Library Items can be used repeatedly in posts (with unique content for each post). However changing parameters in the Global Library Item will update every instance it has been placed in a post. It's a way to have style consistency.
The issues of 'repeated post title' ONLY occurs when a Library Item is used in the post. If a standard Divi module is used the issue does not occur.
The attached image demonstrates...
1) these first three posts use the Divi Gallery Module. See the Post Title (repeated three times in each item, for testing) all work as expected.
2) the fourth post uses a Divi Library Item (which also contains a Divi Gallery Module). See the Post Title is a repeat of the first posts Title. Even the Post Title Link is linked to the first posts' single page. If more posts were created using the Library Item the title of the first post in the list would be repeated for them as well.
Also note that on this page... hidden link
building the exact same scenario using a different CPT Builder (CPT UI) and Divi Layout Injector plugins, the Library Items work fine.
Question to resolve: Can you assist in figuring out why ToolSet Archives can't display Post Title if the Post was built using a Divi Library Item.
PS: while I wait for your reply I'm going to create a custom field called client name and see if that field will display correctly.
I'm standing by.
With best regards,
