Hi I have a website with parent and child posts.
I want to reload the parent posts using "csv importer" plugin, one of the column headings is "post_relation_slug".
I want to keep the child posts so that they appear with the reloaded parent posts. So my question is what is the format and column heading for including the child post id's for each parent post?
Thanks for your help

Hi Shane, Thanks for this, do you know if it's possible to use the child post id instead of the child post title in the related_posts column ?
Thanks

Hi David,

Based on the documentation you use the post title or the id of the posts for the related_posts column.

Thanks,
Shane
