Types plugin lets you easily create relationships between different post types and connect them using GUI controls. You can also connect multiple post types and build many-to-many post relationships.

The issue here is that the user wanted to display his Types Beta many to Many relationship using Views.
Solution:
Currently our Views Beta plugin does not have a way to display the Relationships from the new types version. In order to do this I would recommend reverting to our production release of Types and Views.
Problem:
In a many-to-many relationship the client wants to display related posts, sorted by a field on the related posts.
Solution:
The current implementation of many-to-many relationships involves creating an intermediate post type, and then creating a View which returns the intermediate posts with a filter for the parents on one side, while using the id attribute to display content from the parent on the other side.
That View can only filter by fields present on the intermediate post type itself, which means duplicating the field in question from the parent on the intermediate posts.
This will become redundant with the switch to Types 3.0, when it will eventually be possible to filter by fields of related posts.
Problem: I would like to use Toolset to create recurring events using custom posts and custom fields.
Solution: It may be possible with extensive custom coding to accomplish a full-featured calendar system with scheduling, events, and recurring features in Toolset, but a 3rd-party plugin that manages events and scheduling is more likely to include a majority of the features you need, already built-in. If you need to sort lists based on recurring dates, or display events in a calendar view, or filter Events by date range, Toolset probably isn't the best option for your needs.
Problem:
From a parent post edit screen it is possible to add new child posts but not assign existing ones. The child posts can be deleted, but can they simply be removed (i.e. unassigned, rather than deleted)?
Solution:
Not with the current implementation, but these will be possible with the imminent update to Types 3.0.
Problem: I am unable to create related content from the post editor screen in the new betas. I see an error in the logs: "WordPress database error Unknown column 'association.trid' in 'field list'".
Solution: This problem has been resolved in the latest beta plugins. Please update to receive the latest versions.
Problem: I would like to be able to display and edit custom field values in the Post Relationship editor when selecting a parent post.
Solution: This is not possible in the current system, but the new beta plugins offer repeating field groups and some other new relationship features that might help.
