Post relationship allows you to connect between different post types. We are ready with a first beta of Toolset Types<\/strong> that supports many-to-many relationship, repeating field groups and post reference fields and we need your feedback about how you want to use it on multilingual sites.<\/p>\n

In case you haven’t been watching our Toolset<\/a> project, in the last year we’ve been working on adding full post-relationship support to it. Post relationship means that you can connect between different kinds of post types.<\/p>\n

Sounds abstract? Let’s look at a couple of examples.<\/p>\n

Let’s say that you’re creating a website for “festivals” in Europe. Festivals have “performers”. You will probably want to create a custom post type for “festivals” and another one for the “performers”.<\/p>\n

Obviously, each festival will have many performers. Each performer can appear in many festivals. So, we naturally have a many-to-many relationship between festivals and performers.<\/p>\n

The glue that connects between the festivals and the performers will be “appearances”. An appearance will have a “date” may have a “ticket price” and probably a few other characteristics (fields).<\/p>\n

The upcoming version of Types lets you conveniently set-up such many-to-many relationships. It also comes with repeating field groups and a few other goodies.<\/p>\n
