Hello, is there any update about this feature? I want to show on frontend a list of connected posts in a custom order, like the way I can do with wp core tag.

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

I could not track this feature down in our internal features request tool. I am sorry, I can't add your voice if I don't find any feature request.

However, I believe that you can add a custom number field to the "child" post type(in case of one-to-many relationship), or to the "intermediary" post type(in case of many-to-many relationship). Then you can use this custom field in sorting the view that will display the related posts.

I hope this makes sense. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you! I'll use this method but I would have preferred order drag and drop.

Can I ask you to open a request for this feature please? I can use the trick for now in admin section but for clients in frontend page it's a little inconvenient to use and also I need to double query relationship going through intermediary post to order child posts. I wish you can implement something like the multiple value custom field which you can order dragging each field. Doing this way also will use only one row in post_meta table, instead of many rows using your suggested trick. Thank you!!

Of course, I added this feature request. However, we can't provide an ETA of when this could be implemented. It may take a few months.

Thank you for your suggestion.
