Hello team
I have some post types like course, university, agency etc and for all have form to apply (Which is diff post type for each post type, eg, course applications for course, universities applications for university and so on...)

Till here all ok.. Now the issue comes
Sometime, students apply more than one time and in diff diff places, But I want a new post type, where I can see all applications done by that student (By Email field).

I am not getting how to do this. Please let me know solution.

Also relationship option, can it be in checkboxes instead of popup and then select form dropdown? Like here is in video https://toolset.com/documentation/post-relationships/how-to-set-up-post-relationships-using-toolset/ at 2:14?

Actually I used post type builder in one of my website and there was checkboxes which were more easy to use because those were just check boxes.. Or if can be added an option that if we want to use check box we use it otherwise we use popup n dropdown..

The main one is to track applications by someone by emails.. Please check and let me know

Thanks a lot in advance..

I'm not sure how another post type will help, unless you plan to recreate all the existing applications in one post type.

I have another idea. WordPress automatically creates an archive of each author's posts (all post types) at the URL https://yoursite.com/author/username. You can customize this page. Go to Toolset > WordPress Archive to create a new archive, then assign it to the Author archive.

It is not possible to create a parametric search for Users, but you could create a View that shows all the Users and includes a link to each User's author archive. I can help with that if you need assistance.

Hello,
thanks for your reply
But the issue is, we don't want people to register only. We want, they can submit application without registing also. L hidden link works if person is registered, but not for guest. No any solution at all?

Okay what if you create an email custom field and apply this field to all Application post types. When the Guest User submits an Application Form, they must add their email address in this field. Next, create a View of all the Application post types, and add a custom field filter by the email address field. Insert this View on a custom Page, and you can filter by email address. All the matching Applications will appear in the View results.
