Hi

I've a view where I display info about POST 1.

There is a relationship between POST 1 (parent) and POST 2(child).

In the POST 1 I have an AUTHOR 1
In the POST 2 I have an AUTHOR 2

In the view of POST 1 I display the title of POST 2 with this:

[wpv-post-title item='@accommodations-product.parent']

How can also display the meta of the author of POST 2? Like the email for example..

For more info:
- the relationship slug is "accommodations-product" and the parent slug is "accommodations"

I tried with this:

[types usermeta='ragione-sociale' id="$accommodations"][/types]

But does not work, the result is empty.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - to display the post author meta information you should try to use the following shortcode:

For example - to display parent post author nickname:

[wpv-post-author format="meta" meta="nickname" item="@accommodations-product.parent"]

Hi Minesh, thank you.
It works with nickname, but not with my user custom fields. I tried for example this:

[wpv-post-author format="meta" meta="ragione-sociale" item="@accommodations-product.parent"]

Ok - so the custom user fields are a different thing here.

To display the custom user fields - you can use the shortcode:

[types usermeta='ragione-sociale' user_id='[wpv-post-author format="meta" meta="ID" item="@accommodations-product.parent"]'][/types]

Does above shortcode works?

It's perfect! Thank you Minesh!
