Tell us what you are trying to do?
I want to use the new many-to-many post relationship from Toolset

Until now I used a combination of Toolset taxonomies and the plugin Post Connector.
Is there a possibility to import existing post relationships from post connector?

Regards
Jürgen

Hi, our system doesn't have a special integration with Post Connector relationships, so the process is the same as importing from any other 3rd-party post relationship system. You must generate a CSV file in a special format, then use that CSV to import posts and post relationships. The difficult part is generating that CSV file from Post Connector, because I'm not sure how you access the necessary information. We have a guide available here, but you may need assistance from Post Connector support to create such a CSV file:

Or if you're comfortable with PHP, we also offer the Post Relationships API toolset_connect_posts:
