Tell us what you are trying to do?
I've been using Toolset with Divi theme for a long time, and I am testing Divi 5 with Toolset.
Divi has a Theme Builder which you can use to set up specific post types or archives. Sometimes I call Views Fields or Content Templates from inside the Theme Builder templates.
If I call a view with the views shortcode this works as it should.
e.g. [wpv-view name="related-cab-view"]
If I call a content template or a field it treats the Divi Template as the post that's being queried.
E.g. [wpv-post-title] shows "Theme Builder Layout"
If I use [wpv-post-title item="390"] where 390 is the post id I get the correct post title.
I filed a bug report with Divi Support saying it's working different from Divi 4, but their reply was:
"This is correct and the intended behavior, since the Theme Builder template is actually a layout as well and that's the $post that's in the WordPress loop."
and:
"Yes, in Divi 4 it's currently broken/not working as expected (even if it shows the title of the post - which is what you would expect it to do - but this isn't the correct behavior, as per the WordPress codex)."
Note that I've made workaround by making a shortcode the get_queried_object_id() and can use that in [wpv-post-title item="[queried_object_id]"] from within other Content templates, but not directly from the Divi Template (the shortcode within a shortcode doesn't resolve as it does in a Content Template or view).
I just wondered if there is an inbuilt way to make it select the post ID from get_queried_object_id() rather than from get_the_ID(), or a way to add the queried object ID to the Post Selection options.
As per my initial post, all shortcodes and content templates are using the $post which is the Divi Template (as the Divi Template is in the loop) and not the $post that is being shown.
So [wpv-post-id] gets the ID of the Divi Template not the queried object.
I understand why the default for these is to get the post in the loop, because they have to work inside a view, but I thought there might be a way for it to use get_queried_object_id() instead of get_the_ID()
Is there a way I can add an extra option to the "Post Selection" list where you can choose from:
The current post being displayed either directly or in a View loop
The parent of the current post in the same post type, set by WordPress hierarchical relationship
A post related to the current post, set by a Types relationship
The post owner of the Types repeatable group field
A specific post (search by title)
A specific post (set by post ID)
