Is it possible through Views (beta) to get custom field values from the children of each parent listed in the table view?

Hi Jakob,

You should be able to do this. You'll need to create a second View and add it to the View Layout. The second View should then filter the posts and select posts that have a parent the same as the current page.

Best regards,
Bruce.

i ran to the same problem. excuse my clulessness aboyt types and syblings...
but how does one "filter the posts and select posts that have a parent the same as the current page" as you've recommended.
i created a separate view for it, but no success.
example is: artist has few plays.
on each play-page i'd like to show in a sidebar widget a view that displays all the other plays that belong to that same artist.
thanx for your help

Hi Neora,
are you asking about WP posts parent-child or Types Post Relationships?

#14398

types posts relationships (if i understand correctly both terms)

here's a playwright-page - hidden link
and has "plays" as children.
play is parent of "awards" (which can also be child the playwright himself).

my problems:
1. i can display easily the plays by a playwright on playwright-page, but cannot display when inside a playwright-page (to see all other plays by same person)
2. i can display awards of specific play on the play-page, but i cannot display all awards by a playwright on

let me know if/how can i let you login details...
