FAQ

Can I display fields from user profile, taxonomy term or options page?

Advanced Views supports all the field sources provided by your chosen meta vendor.

For example, if you’re using ACF (Advanced Custom Fields), you can access fields from option pages, user profiles, terms, comments, and menus.

You can refer to the documentation for the specific list of supported field sources for your meta vendor.

Can I display fields inside the Gutenberg Query Loop?

You can use the View shortcode inside the Gutenberg Query Loop element.

Please make sure you’ve added it via the built-in Shortcode block, as it won’t work properly with other block types, like Code or Custom HTML.

This plugin is incompatible with the cache memory plugin. When I install the plugin on my site and make the necessary adjustments, it works without any problems, but when I install and activate the cache memory plugin to speed up my site, all of my website’s pages become white and all html coding is disabled. I recommend that you do not install it.

Out of the box: Preview never finished loading The Views Field dropdown takes over the page, so wherever you click you get the dropdown. Requires a page refresh to get rid of the dropdown.
