Hi David
Let's work backwards.
You are displaying child posts.
So create a View to list child posts. It sounds like it should output the child post title as a link.
Now this View will list *all* child posts, so we will need to add a Query Filter to limit the results to only those which are children of a particular parent post.
Which parent post?
One that we will pass to the View using a URL parameter.
In the screenshot you can see me adding such a filter. Views is suggesting "wpv-relationship-filter" as the URL parameter, but I could change this to something else if I wanted.
Add this View to a page. Note the ID of the page.
Now edit the template for displaying parent posts, where you want to insert a link to this page to list its child posts.
Insert a link to that page like so:
<a href="[wpv-post-url item='204']?wpv-relationship-filter=[wpv-post-id]">Child posts</a>
So we pass the ID of the parent post to the page that has our child posts View (which has an ID of 204 in my example; you can also use the page title instead of the id when inserting the wpv-post-url shortcode if you prefer).
