What is the link to your site?
hidden link
I have created a Parent content template and insert a relationship link in the following method:
[types field='client-first-name'][/types]<br> [types field='client-last-name'][/types]<br> [types field='client-id-number'][/types]<br> [cred-relationship-form-link form='new-protfolio-analysis-child' parent_item='$current' content_template_slug='new-portfolio-child-form']Add a Client Portfolio[/cred-relationship-form-link]
in the create a new child post form I used the following:
[credform] <div class="form-group"> <label>Portfolio Date</label> [cred_field field="portfolio-date" force_type="field" class="form-control" output="bootstrap"] </div> <div class="form-group"> <label>Upload Single Portfolio File</label> [cred_field field="u-sngl-portfolio-file" force_type="field" class="form-control" output="bootstrap"] </div> <div class="form-group"> <label>Clients Clients Portfolios</label> [cred_field field="@client-client-portfolio.parent" class="form-control" output="bootstrap" select_text=""] </div> [cred_field field="form_submit" output="bootstrap" value="Oreder Portfolio Analysis" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg"] [/credform]
when i click the link from the parent post i get the form to create the child however the relationship connection does not work.
what am i missing here?
please advise,
thanks,
David
Dear David,
I assume we are talking about one-to-many relathipship, and you are going to display a create child post link in the single parent post.
In the "Parent content template", you are using a relationship form shortcode:
[cred-relationship-form-link ...]
But in your case, you need to follow our document to do these:
1) Create a post form for creating child post
2) Put it into a WordPress page
3) In the "Parent content template", display the create child post link by this:
click button "Toolset Forms", in section "Other Toolset Forms actions", click button "Create Child Post Link", and setup the link. see screenshot create-child-link.JPG
