I am trying to: Display a list of posts from same parrent post.

I've read:
- https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/displaying-child-posts/
- https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/displaying-parent-posts/

Now, I'm looking for solution to show list of posts from same author on single book post (more book from same author of current post).

Thanks

Hi Synnove,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Actually you can do this with just using the function here https://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/get_posts

You just need to specify the author you want the posts for and it will retrieve all the posts that belong to this author.

Thanks,
Shane

Thanks for reply!

The ''author'' I mean a post of a post type call ''Author'' and not WP post author.

Let me explain. I have a post type call "book" and post type call "author". Now the book post connect with post author. (One to many)

I want get and display a list of post on single book post from parrent post. In this case is "author".

Does it can be done with get_posts function?

Hi Synnove,

Thank you for the clarity in this case then the link here should be able to assist you.
https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/displaying-child-posts/

Specifically this code here.

$child_args = array(
'post_type' => 'room',
'numberposts' => -1,
'meta_key' => 'wpcf-genre',
'orderby' => 'meta_value',
'order' => 'ASC',
'meta_query' => array(array('key' => '_wpcf_belongs_writer_id', 'value' => get_the_ID()))
);
$child_posts = get_posts($child_args);

I would recommend getting our Views plugin as this can be achieved without doing any form of coding at all.

Thanks,
Shane
