Hi,

with the new version of Toolset, how to check if a child post has a parent one?
This approach apparently doesn't work anymore?: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/conditional-output-with-post-relations/

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - I would like to know that are you using new post relationships that is made available with latest Types plugin version 3.0 or have you migrated your legacy (old) relationship created using Types plugin before version 3.0?

What is your parent post type and child post types? Could you please send me screenshot of page:
=> Toolset => Relationships

Hi Minesh,

my site wasn't ready when the Types 3.0 was released and I decided to set my website up from scratch, using only the newest releases of the Toolset software, so I didn't migrate anything.

I attach the screen.

Well - With Types 3.0, you should try to use following code to check if parent exists or not.

To check if parent exists:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-post-id item="@relationship-slug.parent"]' ne '' )"]

parent exists

[/wpv-conditional]

To check if NO parent exists:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-post-id item="@relationship-slug.parent"]' eq '' )"]

no parent exists

[/wpv-conditional]

Where:
- Replace relationship-slug with your original post relationship slug.

Could you please confirm - is the solution I shared works for you?

Thanks Minesh, it works.

One more thing, how to show only these posts in archive which have parent by using Query Filter?
