Bi directional relationships

  • Posted 1 month ago

When building a relationship between post types, is there a way to enable it so the relationship can be built from one input?

I use relationship mapping in multiple places and seem to run in to the same issue… some examples:

I have mappings between two ‘places’ to show associated venues. If I build the mapping from one venue, I can indeed show a related venue but that doesn’t appear to be a two way link. In order to do that I have to manually build a relationship from the other side as well.

Is there a way to do that more efficiently?

The same goes for my mapping between ‘articles’ and ‘places’. The association I make from the article side, needs to be replicated on the ‘place’ side. Doing this at scale is going to prove challenging.

Is there a more elegant way to solve for this that I have missed?
