Problem: I would like to know how to create relationships between a WordPress User and a Custom Post Type post created by Types.
Solution:
I can think of 3 ways to link a User and a CPT post.
1. Make the User the author of the post.
2. Use a custom field to store a reference to the related item. For example, you can create a custom field on the CPT Member post that holds the related WordPress User's ID. Or you can create a custom field on the WordPress User profile that holds the matching Member's post ID.
3. Use a custom taxonomy that includes a term for each User, and apply that term to each related post.
Each option has its own pros and cons, so it often depends on your site requirements. I think #2 is usually the most practical.
