[Resolved] Can I create a relationship between users?

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

Is there a way to create a relationship between users just like how it is done with the Post Types?

Solution:

Unfortunately you are not able to create relationships between users. Only relationships between custom post types can be made.

So if you were to create a relationship between users it would need to be with a custom post type.

Is there a way to create relationship between users?
I want to create an organization hierarchy. People are on different levels and have one parent and many children. But also "relatives", "sisters" and "brothers" ...

Or maybe there is some plugin for that ...

Hi Tina,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately you are not able to create relationships between users. Only relationships between custom post types can be made.
