In wordpress how to get post loop inside another loop

I want to get latest post based on author loop. this is my code:

function display_artist_func() {
    $out_args = array(
        'post_type'   => 'product',
        'author'        =>  1,
        'showposts'   => 3
    );
$out_loop = new WP_Query($out_args);

while ($out_loop->have_posts()) :
    
    ?>
    <div><?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), '80' ); ?> </div>
    <?php
    
    //$product = wc_get_product( $product->id );
    $args = array(
        'post_type'   => 'product',
        'showposts'   => 10,
        'orderby'     => 'date',
        'order'       => 'DESC'
    );

    $loop = new WP_Query( $args );
    
    while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); global $product;$author  = get_user_by( 'id', $product->post->post_author ); ?>

        <li>    
            <?php 
                if ( has_post_thumbnail( $loop->post->ID ) ) 
                    echo get_the_post_thumbnail( $loop->post->ID, 'shop_catalog' ); 
                else 
                    echo '<img src="' . woocommerce_placeholder_img_src() . '" alt="Placeholder" width="65px" height="115px" />'; 
            ?>
            <h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>

            <h4><?php echo $author->display_name;?></h4>
            <div><?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), '80' ); ?> </div>


            <?php 
                //echo $product->get_price_html(); 
                //woocommerce_template_loop_add_to_cart( $loop->post, $product );
            ?>    
        </li>

<?php 
    endwhile;
endwhile;
    wp_reset_query(); 

}
add_shortcode( 'display_artist', 'display_artist_func' );

there is 2 loop:

outside loop get the 3 author.

inside loop get the 3 post based on author from outside loop.

in outside loop a want to display author avatar.

but this code not work.

Your problem is that you're never setting up the post data in your outer loop. It looks to me like this code creates an endless loop? The function get_the_author_email() is actually deprecated, but what its doing is using global $authordata.

In your inner loop, you call:

$loop->the_post();

which is going to take your current query, setup postdata for the active post and then remove it so it no longer returns in your call to have_posts(). You're missing a call to:

$out_loop->the_post();

And so your postdata isn't setup, and you're going to create an endless loop.

NOW with all that said

To be perfectly honest your code doesn't look like it makes a lot of sense. Your 'outer loop' is querying products with one specific hard-coded author ID, but the only thing that outer post is used for IS to get the author email. The way its written - the author is going to be the same for every run of $out_loop.

So I think you still may be missing some logic here - I don't know from your description exactly how its supposed to work, but as is - if you're just looping through products, there's no need for two loops here.
