Problem: I would like to automatically connect multiple posts in a M2M relationship. The GUI lets me connect each post manually, but I would like to automate the process. I would like to query all the posts in one custom post type, which have one specific taxonomy term, and relate those posts to 3 specific posts from another custom post type.
Solution:
Create a backup of your site and database first. Then insert this code in functions.php. This code creates a shortcode which calls a custom get_posts query to get the posts in one specific category, and uses the toolset_connect_posts API to loop over each of those posts and connects it to all 3 posts in the other custom post type. Place the shortcode on a page, then load the page once in the front-end. Finally remove the code from functions.php and remove the shortcode from the page. Custom code follows:
Problem: I would like to loop over repeating fields in a parent post using wpv-for-each.
Solution: You should create a View that shows the parent post, then use wpv-for-each inside the View's Loop Output editor. The wpv-for-each shortcode is not designed to show fields from a parent post.
Problem:
With the changes in Types 3 the post relationship is no longer stored as post meta but in custom tables. How to import posts and maintain the relationships?
Solution:
There is a new solution to set up relationships when importing posts, described in the documentation.
