I am creating a book review site and I want to include at the bottom of each review a list of all the other books along with images of the other books written by that author with links to the other books how do I set this up in toolset

I have gone through the different types of relationships but I am having trouble getting my head around it specifically what kind of relationship I need to use. I have created 5 different types of custom posts that share the same custom fields. I am using a custom Divi theme. All is working well as there are close to 3000 books on this review site I would. like being able to link books written by the same author with images of the books that link to that books review
The custom posts are Fiction, Non-Fiction, Childrens Books Young adults, and Music
the custom fields are Author, Distributor, ISBN, Publisher, Released, Website, and social media fields

Your advice would be greatly appreciated IF you need to get into the back end to see how it's set-up please let me know.
Thanks in Advance

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Generally, you should have one-to-many post relationship between Book and Author. So, one book can have many authors. And another relationship should again one to many, one book can have many reviews.

Its your choice at the end that you want to go with one-to-many relationship or many-to-many relationship.

If you already setup the structure then you can share on what single book page, what author is connected to it and you want to display other books by the same author - correct? If yes, you can use views to get those books related to current author.

*** 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.
