Imagine that I have 3 CPTs: People, Groups, Work. I originally wanted to create a Relationship that connected People & Groups to Work, but it is only possible to connect one CPT with one other CPT using Toolset.

So now I have set up three different Relationships to work around this: People and Groups, People and Work, Groups and Work.

Imagine I connect a Person to a Group, then connect that same Group to Work. Can I display that Work as a related item of the Person in any way? They are not directly connected, but "distantly" connected through two different Relationships. Person to Group, then Group to Work. Can I display these "distant" relations through Toolset?

I hope the above makes some sort of sense. If you need any clarification then please let me know and I'll be happy to provide some more details.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well -Yes, I think it is possible but to loop through each relationship level, you need nested views.

Imagine I connect a Person to a Group, then connect that same Group to Work. Can I display that Work as a related item of the Person in any way?
==> Assuming you are displaying the single post that belongs to person post type, you should create a view to display groups and in this view, you should add another view that display related works post that belongs to the group.
