I created a standard View for a custom post type, and added a dropdown filtering taxonomy element. If I embed the view in a standard WP page, it works as expect - both in Ajax and page-refresh.

If i embed the same View within an Elementor page (like their Archive template) - the filtering only works for page-refresh (i.e. where the URL contains the filtering criteria). If I use any of the Ajax options, only one Post is displayed, despite other posts matching the criteria.

Are there known issues with the Elementor integration? I checked the errata and didn't see anything in the search...

Thanks!

After some debugging, it seems that this issue is only present when the "Don't include current page in query result" checkbox is checked in the View. I don't know what this checkbox does (maybe reset the wp_query()? ?) but the default state (checked) will break the Elementor Ajax integration.

Okay yes this checkbox does affect the query, and when the View is placed on an archive it can cause some unexpected results because an archive isn't a single post. In general, I recommend you keep this checkbox unchecked unless you're placing a View of posts on a single post template (of the same post type). In those cases, you might only want to show "other" posts in the results, and exclude the current page. Otherwise, uncheck this checkbox.

Thanks - that all makes sense.

I guess of all the possible applications of a View, having the "single post of same type show everything except current page" seems like an uncommon use-case, so I would think that perhaps the default state of that checkbox should be UNCHECKED instead of checked. Maybe something to ping to the devs? Or at least make the tooltip a bit more explicit.

Anyway - thanks for the info!
