I am trying to add a map, created with Toolset, that displays locations from a repeatable field group on a page designed with Elementor. However, when using the shortcodes, the map appears without markers.
Solution:
Create the View using Toolset's legacy mode and include the map and its markers within the View. Then, use the [wpv-view name="Name of the view"] shortcode in Elementor to display the map. Make sure to enable legacy views under "Toolset > Settings > General".
Problem:
The customer needed to filter posts in her directory by a custom taxonomy called Features, ensuring that only posts with all selected tags were displayed (using an AND operator instead of OR).
Solution:
We determined that Toolset Blocks does not natively support changing the operator from OR to AND for multiple select fields. As a workaround, we enabled legacy views and configured the custom search to use the AND operator. Additionally, we used custom code with the wpv_filter_query filter to change the operator to AND. The specific code was added to the theme's functions.php file, targeting the correct view_id:
add_filter('wpv_filter_query', 'custom_taxonomy_query_operator', 10, 3);
function custom_taxonomy_query_operator($query_args, $view_settings, $view_id) {
if ($view_id == 509) {
if (isset($query_args['tax_query'])) {
foreach ($query_args['tax_query'] as &$tax_query) {
if (isset($tax_query['operator']) && $tax_query['operator'] == 'IN') {
$tax_query['operator'] = 'AND';
}
}
}
}
return $query_args;
}
I am working on a site that has a custom theme with the Classic Editor plugin active.
I have created a page that uses the block editor by using a code snippet to enable it.
I am adding a view to that page using Toolset Blocks but the custom fields I have created are not available to me when adding a Single Field block. If I disable the Classic Editor plugin all is well but I can't do that because the rest of the theme relies on it.
Is there are setting I'm missing or something else you can suggest.
Solution:
One possible solution would be:
- remove the code snippet
- go to Generals -> Writing
- in the "Allow users to switch editors" option, select 'yes' and save the page
Problem:
How to only show a Form to submit content if the user hasn't already submitted any (i.e. only allow them to submit one post)?
Solution:
You would need to register a custom shortcode to return the number of posts a user has published to use inside a wpv-conditional shortcode that determined whether the link to the form was displayed or not.
Here is an example of such code:
add_shortcode( 'user-posts', function( $atts = [], $content = null ){
// default is any post type
$atts = shortcode_atts(
array(
'type' => 'any'
),
$atts
);
$user_id = get_current_user_id();
$posts = get_posts( array( 'post_type' => $atts['type'], 'post_author' => $user_id, 'numberposts' => -1 ) );
// Return number of published posts
return count( $posts );
});
The custom shortcode needs registering at Toolset > Settings > Front-end content to be able to use it for conditions.
The shortcode can be used with or without an attribute to specify the post type, like so:
[user-posts] // Will output the number of posts of any type published by the current user
[user-posts type='thing'] // Will output number of posts of post type 'thing'
