      I was able to relate my Home and Location post types using the Piklist post-relate field type.


      <?php
      /*
      Title: Locations
      Post Type: home
      Order: 10
      Priority: default
      Context: side
      Collapse: false
      */

      // Let's show the Meta Box
      piklist('field', array(
      'type' => 'post-relate'
      ,'scope' => 'location'
      ,'template' => 'field'
      ));

      piklist('shared/code-locater', array(
      'location' => __FILE__
      ,'type' => 'Meta Box'
      ));

      However, this seems to only create a one-way relationship.

      Adding a second meta-box file with the post types flipped shows the correct options, but the connections checked in one post do not persist to the other.

      Are true two-way connections possible with post-relate? I was hoping Piklist would replace the Posts 2 Posts plugin for this purpose.

      Can anyone clarify how post-relate works?

      If two-way relationships are possible, I’d love to know how.

      If not, is this a feature request that anyone else is looking for?

      We’re still finalizing this. But yes, two-way relationships will be supported.

      Hi Steve,

      i need your advise on this subject: two-way relationships

      Will this be available in the near-near future?
      or do you advice to use the ‘post2post’ plugin (or other approaches) for this?

      thanks!

      If you need it in the next month or so, go with Posts2Posts. However, be aware that our approach will be different, and I don’t believe compatible with Posts2Posts.

      Sorry to resurrect on an old thread from 2013 but was this ever implemented? The docs are missing for this field. I had a look through the demo code and couldn’t see mention of it.

      I second this. I don’t see anything in the demos regarding related posts…
