Problem:
When using the cred_notification_recipients hook to send a notification to the author of a parent post when a child post is created, what is the correct way to get the ID of the parent post?

Solution:
This changed with Types 3, which no longer stores the parent post ID on the child post.

You would get the parent post ID using the toolset_get_related_post function of the new API.
