Hello.
I am using the toolset_association_created to copy a field from a child post (a property )to a parent post (a tax sales).

It's working but I would like to know the following:
1. When exactly does this apply: "when you make or update the relationship".
2. Is it when changes are made to the tax sale (parent) or the property (child)
3. Does it also apply if changes are made to the property? (child post)
4. I'm wondering if they create the property separately, and then link it if it might not get applied?

thanks

Hello,

Q1) "when you make or update the relationship" means after two posts are connected.

Q2) Is it when changes are made to the tax sale (parent) or the property (child)
No, for example, this action hook "toolset_association_created" is triggered after "tax sale" post connects with "property" post

Q3) No, it does not.

Q4) I assume you are going to trigger your custom PHP codes: after user create/update a "property" post.
If it is, you can try WP built-in action hook "save_post", see WP document:
