I have 2 CPTs with a many > many relationship (recipes > Ingredients)
I then have 2 intermediary posts under Ingredients

Is it at all possible to have forms to create & edit Recipes and include Ingredients and intermediary posts?

Hello, the supported workflow for managing many-to-many (M2M) relationships and their intermediary fields currently requires a separate Relationship Form. Forms that create or edit the individual Recipe and Ingredient posts do not include M2M relationship management features - that type of customization would require additional custom programming. We offer generic fields, the Forms APIs, and the Post Relationships APIs to help facilitate that type of customization, if you're interested in adding that functionality to a single post Form. API references:

Generic fields with dynamic options from Views:

Thanks Christian. Sadly it's going to be a no from me. Means I will probably have to redo my site and not use relationship I wanted, which means I can't do everything I had in mind. Very sad. I do hope that they will do something that does allow a form to be created easily.
