I am showing two or more views. Currently if there are any posts, they appear one row under the other. I would like to have the 2nd view display on the same row as the first view (actually run together..).
1st view:
relates pages to posts
2nd view:
relates pages to resource cpt
I never know how many posts will be in these views but it would be nice if they ran together. I actually tried to combine them all into one view but after choosing the first relationship, I was never offered the chance in the block editor to choose a 2nd relationship. (even though I selected all the post types)
( PS in total, I actually have 4 relationships that I am trying to feature in this area but for simplicity in explanation I am presenting the question with just 2 relationship views)
Hello,
I assume we are talking about the case:
Views 1(ID: 123) outputs multiple results:
Post A, Post B ...
Views 2(ID: 456) outputs multiple results:
Post C, Post D ...
You are going to merge above two view's result in one view, like this:
Post A, Post B, Post C, Post D ...
If it is, you might consider custom codes, for example:
1) Create another new view "View 3" (ID 123):
- Query posts of your custom post type
- Without any filter
- In view's loop, display the post information
2) Use filter hook wpv_filter_query to trigger a PHP function:
add_filter( 'wpv_filter_query', function( $query_args, $settings, $view_id ) {
if($view_id == 789){
$arr1 = get_view_query_results(123);
$arr2 = get_view_query_results(456);
$arr3 = array_merge($arr1, $arr2);
$arr = array(0);
foreach($arr3 as $post){
$arr[] = $post->ID;
}
$query_args['post__in'] = $arr;
}
return $query_args;
}, 10, 3);
Please replace 123 with ID of view 1
replace 456 with ID of view 2
replace 789 with ID of view 3
3) Use "View 3" to display the result

Works flawlessly. I actually merged 4 views no problem, from different custom post types. It was a great way to group them together in one bootstrap 4 column view. I love the way one set of posts seamlessly merges with the next! They become one view!
This was my code for the 4 views:
add_filter( 'wpv_filter_query', function( $query_args, $settings, $view_id ) {
if($view_id == 3324){
$arr1 = get_view_query_results(3236);
$arr2 = get_view_query_results(3240);
$arr3 = get_view_query_results(3238);
$arr4 = get_view_query_results(2838);
$arr5 = array_merge($arr1, $arr2, $arr3, $arr4);
$arr = array(0);
foreach($arr5 as $post){
$arr[] = $post->ID;
}
$query_args['post__in'] = $arr;
}
return $query_args;
}, 10, 3);
My issue is resolved now. Thank you!
