Hi there.

I have a relationship for 2 custom post types.

I created a post form to create post types.

In the wordpress admin I can connect that custom post types. But in the form I can't connect. There are not any optioin to insert the relationship. In expert mode neither.

I attach 2 screenshots.

Any idea about the poblem?

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

In order to connect posts in a relationship in the frontend, you will need to create a relationship form instead of a "Post form", check this article it explains how and provides an example https://toolset.com/documentation/post-relationships/how-to-build-front-end-forms-for-connecting-posts/

I hope this helps. Otherwise, I'll need to take a closer look at your backend to check how the form is built.

Hi Jamal

I was talking with Waqar yesterday and there was a related combobox in the form. You can see the post here: https://toolset.com/es/forums/topic/toolset-chat-support-ticket-by-david-gimenez-1598247357/#post-1753165 (in the last screenshot in that message you can see a related post in the form -> Denominacions de vins vins) I had 2 related in one form. Now there is one but not appear in the form like as denominacions de vins vins

I have other forms and I can assign related posts to the post that I'm creating.

I attach an screenshot of other form.

I don't understand the reason that in one form I can assign related posts and other times not.

Thanks for your help Jamal

Relation X - Y (one to many)

Form to create a post Y - > There is a dropdown in the form of related post X. It's not necessary an additional relationship form to connect posts
Form to create a post X - > There is not a dropdown in the form of related post Y. It's necessary an additional relationship form to connect posts

My issue is resolved now. Thank you!
