There are two types of custom posts: Companies and Jobs (they are related in one to many way). I often display field values of one in another.
There is a custom field in Jobs called 'Walk-in-Interview' (radio button) in Job post type. It shows whether the job is a walk-in-interview or not.
There is another view called 'Company Job vacancies' created to show the jobs available under the current company and it picks up the RFG values from job posts.
Now what I want to do is to display the walk-in-interview tags (from Job posts) against those vacancies (generated by Company Job Vacancies)
For understanding the things, please see the following URLs:
(job post) hidden link
(company post) hidden link

I am ready to share login information for the purpose.

Hello,

Toolset Repeatable field groups are based on one-to-many relationship, the relationship slug is Repeatable field group slug, so each item of RFG is also a post, in the item of RFG you can display it's parent post information using types shortcode + "item" attribute, for example:

[types field="walk-in-interview" item="@RFG-SLUG.parent"][/types]

Please replace walk-in-interview with your "walk-in-interview" field slug, replace RFG-SLUG with Repeatable field group slug
