Different styled-loops not working within Archive

[jaykaslo]

Hi, I'm currently using Ele Custom Skin on two sites. I'm using version 2.1 (Pro) on site A and version 3.0 (Pro) on site B. What's strange is... it's working fine on the OLDER version (2.1), but not working correctly on site B (with the newer version).

The issue is... I've created different loop templates for each post category. Each loop template is displaying correctly in the Archive grids on site A, but this is not working on site B. On site B, whichever template I specify under "Select a default template"... that particular template is showing up for ALL posts in the archive (regardless of category).

I've compared the settings for both sites and they look identical, so I'm wondering why it's only working on site A (using Pro 2.1), not site B (using the newer Ele Skin Pro 3.0). Is there some extra step I'm missing, or is this a known bug with the newer Ele Skin Pro 3.0?

Help greatly appreciated on this, thanks!

I'm attaching screenshots of the Elementor settings for both ArchivePosts widgets.

Can you tell me what conditions did you used?

Hi,

I have 10 blog post categories. I’ve currently set up two loops, as shown here. (Eventually I will probably create a unique loop for each of the 10 categories.)

I set the Display Conditions for the “ARCHIVE LOOP - PODCAST” to be only visible for “podcast” category posts.

And likewise for “video” category posts…

I’ve set display conditions for my Archive template to be for ALL ARCHIVES. Below is a screenshot of the Archive template. You can see the Archive Posts widget settings. I specified “ARCHIVE LOOP - PODCAST” as the default template, but since I’ve also turned on “Enable Display Conditions”, I thought it would choose which loop template to use based on what category of post is displayed in the archive grid. As far as I can tell, this is exactly how I set this up on my other site (where it works fine), so I’m wondering why it’s not working here.

*** Note that in the display here, you can see some Podcast posts but also some Video posts, but they are both displaying using the “ARCHIVE LOOP - PODCAST” loop template. (The "ARCHIVE LOOP - VIDEO” loop template is unused.)

Hi,

I have the same problem. I have 2x loops - 1x for a standard product, 1x for a featured product. 1st loop is set to exclude all products with the category featured 2nd loop is set to include all products with the category featured

When I enable the option labeled Enable Display Conditions on my Posts Archive object or Posts object, I select the standard loop as the default and I would expect the featured product to have its respective skin applied. No such luck.

I also tried playing around with the conditions to only exclude, include all/exclude 1, exclude all/include 1. Nothing works. Alternating templates work just fine, so I was able to test the 2 loops working side by side, but I need to fix this. It's one of the main reasons I purchased the PRO version.

Is this option not working or is there any other logical way to set up the conditions???

Thanks, Dan

Hi, I had emailed my reply, but looks like the screenshots did not come through (at least they're not visible here on Github.) I'm resending them here. Hoping to get this resolved soon, since all of this is basically why I bought the Pro version. Thanks!

I will try to replicate this issue on my side. It should have worked

[Jan-Webofka]

[troiscodes]

Next version will fix this issue.

Seems I have the same issue. Using Woocommerce, it shows all products when viewing a category, instead of showing just that category products. Did you fix dudaster?

[dudaster]

Until the next version is out. Here is the fix for the "Enable Display Conditions" Problem:

Search for the file modules/display-conditions.php in plugin editor of the Ele Custom Skin Pro, insert at line 83:

if (!$condition_pass && $name == 'loop' && $sub_name) $condition_pass = true;

it will be released in the next version

I don't think is the same issue. Make sure you have current query set up.

[moodeys]

Thanks for your quick response! I have done what you suggested, and that did not work. Basically, the issue is that using the loop, on a 'product archive' shows all products, instead of the products within the WooCommerce category. At this stage it does not appear to be able to work with WooCommerce. What do you mean by current query setup? Thanks for your help.

You should treat the product just like any other custom post type
