I have 3 post types (Program, Visit, Details).

Program is a parent to Visit.
Visit is a parent to Details.

When I delete a Program, I want all the child Visits and child Details to be deleted also.

How can this be done automatically?

Thanks,
Amin

Hi Amin,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately the only thing that can be automatically deleted is the intermediary post that is attached in the relationship.

You are not able to automatically delete the child posts in a relationship.

Thanks,
Shane
