Hi, I'm trying to add two seperate views on a single page. I have them both set as:

location : page -> patrick
render for: The layout between header and footer

The order for one view is set to 0, the other one to 10;

The problem is that it only shows the one with the highest order-number, in this case 10.

As soon as as i change the type to "custom" for the view with order 10, I can see the one that is supposed to show first. And, of course, not the first one.

Hi,

If you want to show two views on the page/post, please set the type to Custom. It will disable the order to show both views. See my screenshot https://share.getcloudapp.com/X6uoxrkE.

Hi,

I think I get it now. I don't want to be that guy that compares this to another popular solution to do this, but maybe a warning that there is already an existing view active/multiple views would be helpful. I don't believe I will be the only one ending up with this question if you don't.

I've simply used

{{ mb.do_action( 'some_custom_action' ) }}

as the main view so i can add an infinite number of action-views to it and set the order as I need.

Hi,

With the new feature of this extension, you can hook the view to the action as you do. For the older case, we can use the type Custom and add many shortcodes to the page/post to show multiple views.
