Problem:
How can I create a Custom Search with Views for my posts (cars) so the users can find their make and model?
Solution:
1. Create your Posts (cars)
2. Add a Custom Field (select, perhaps) for the make
3. Add a Custom Field (select, perhaps) for the model
Those Custom Fields should be pre-populated.
Then, update your cars with that information.
After, create a View, add 2 Custom Filters by the Make and Model Field, and choose "Let me choose individual settings manually" in the "Custom Search Settings".
There, choose "Show only available options for each input".
Problem:
When I want to move the search form to another cell (sidebar), the result and search form display twice.
Solution:
View Cell normally works fine Layouts. If for some reason its not working, you can solve the problem, by inserting the view in the layout using a Visual Editor cell.
You can display Search form on one place and the results on another place on the same page. When you insert a Custom Search View into a page, it will give you option to separate form filters and results, and it will provide you with shortcode and instructions on how to add them separately, please follow the instructions given on screen.
Problem: I would like to populate custom fields in CPT A with values from CPT B.
Solution: There are two main options here:
- Use Import / Export to export an XML file of a few options, then add your options and re-import.
- Use Parent / Child relationships.
