Tell us what you are trying to do?
Hi,

I have 4 post types tenant, contact, rental and communication.
Tenant is parent of contact and also the parent of rental. The contact is the parent of communication. I want to add a relationship between rental and communication that rental is parent of communication at the same time when I am creating the communication.
Can I pass the rental id with the contact id when creating child communication form?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

I would like to know when you create a new communication post how you would determine to what rental (parent) post you want to link the newly created communication post?

#1480183

Currently in rental page I display the tenant(parent) of rental. Also, I am displaying all contacts(children) related to tenant. When I click on one of the contacts I will go to content template of contact and in this page I have a link to create new communication.

when I click on one of the contacts I want to pass the rental id and also when I create the new communication I pass both the contact id and the rental id. Is this possible?

But what rental ID you want to pass when you create the contact?

Can you please share the link where I can see the link to add new contact and once I review your setup I will get back to you.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

With the view that displays the contact belongs to current rental page:
=> hidden link

I've changed the following line of code from:

<td> [wpv-post-link]  </td>

To

<td><a href="[wpv-post-url]?parent_rental_id=[wpv-post-id item='$current_page']"> [wpv-post-title] </a> </td>

this will allow use to pass the parent_rental_id.

With the folowing Layout:
=> hidden link
I've replaced the Add Communication link that is added using the following shortcode:

[cred_child_link_form form='1538' parent_id='-1' text='Add communication' target='_self']

With

<a href="/add-communication/?parent_tenant-contact_id=[wpv-post-id]&parent_rental_id=[wpv-search-term param='parent_rental_id']" target="_self">Add communication</a>

Now, when you submit the form to add new communication, you will have both contact and rental ID available:
=> hidden link
