I see that it is not possible to create a relationship with the same CPT.
What's the best way to connect two posts of the same type?

I have a CPT named "profile". I need to create a relationship with two profiles to save as a "friend addition". What's the best way to do it?

Hi there

Unfortunately there is no way to do that, it is not supported.

I don't have any kind of workaround for you, I'm afraid, it is only possible to connect posts of different post types.

Hello there,

Thanks for your reply.

The best workaround for your request that I can think is to create another post type, so that it handles and holds the connection you want to have between the posts from the same CPT (Profile).

Then, you could create a relationship of one-to-many and link this new CPT created with the Profiles CPT, and then you could connect two profiles inside the same post from the new CPT. Does it make sense?

Please let me know. Thank you.
