Advanced Custom Fields Pro Elementor & Relationship Fields

[@user-ld3ww2yx4k]

This is the perfect time to watch all your ACF + Elementor videos and get the most from them. God bless you.

[@Aireekuh62523]

This wasn't what I was looking for but stayed and watched the whole thing because it is a good video on this topic.

[@corumeach]

Wow this video allowed me to actually use ACF/Dynamic Content the way I wanted. ACF and Dynamic Widgets are not very intuitive to use when it comes to relationships. At least I needed some visualization and step by step example, to make it work. After days of frustrating fiddling around this video simply showed everything step by step. Thank you so much.

[@رتيل-ب5ص]

Thanks Paul. The interesting part is that you can show the reverse relationship on the dealer page with the same field when choosing the "invert direction" option. realy great!

[@catalyseweb6029]

Thank you so much for this comment, it was what I was looking for all along!

[@raj-dsa]

Thank you for this, checking out the dynamic content plugin. I hoped I can achieve this without any additional plugins, but this seems very good.

[@taskitvirtualsolutions]

I have just found this and realised where I was going wrong! Thank you so much 🙏 I had been adding a relational field within the custom fields group and trying to assign the relationship there rather than creating a separate field group for the relationship. I also didn’t realise there was a relationship widget 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@taskitvirtualsolutions]

Hi Paul I’ve just noticed an omission. When you’re in the relationship field group you go off to show how the post type and taxonomy filters work within the vehicle post but you don’t return to the relationship field and scroll down to the rules where you have set ‘show this field group if post type is equal to vehicles’. I had to whizz through it a few times and pause it in just the right spot to be able to see what you’d entered.

[@MediToursHungaryOnline]

HI, can I ask you where you found the widget? my Elementor pro does not have this.

[@FrenchinPlainSight]

@@MediToursHungaryOnline Look in the video description and he lists the tools he uses. It's another paid plugin. He doesn't say it in the video.

[@wordpress9]

Hello, thanks for the video, it's great. But I would need this solution in the ACF repeater when using contributions from the CPT UI field. I followed the procedure according to your video, but I still see classic posts, the post from the CPT UI field is not loaded. I need the 2 selected posts to always be next to each other.

[@peteharrison3241]

Paul, great video as usual, but why didn't you put the relationship field directly in the vehicle group?

Unfortunate that the title of the video does not include the dynamic content plugin, I ended up buying elementor pro not realizing I needed that too, until I was stuck at "why don't I have that option" - I know Its my own fault, but it would be helpful, I very much appretiate these videos!

[@WPTuts]

Sorry for the confusion, but I would always recommend checking out the description as I always list all the tools used in the video. 👍🏼

[@adisapaul1242]

Same here, were you able to find the widget on elementor elements?

[@WIThEMaN2]

Great vid again! ACF Wordpress master much?? 1 question, is there a way to have a relationship between regular checkbox metafield and media? For example, if a user in the wordpress admin creates a listing, chooses a brand with the acf meta field. Then show the logo of that brand on the website. Of course this could be done if you made a custom field only for the logo's. But this is maybe a workaround and clusters the speed of the webiste?

[@skysavvydrone]

Hey Paul, following this tutorial, and I have both Elementor and ACF Pro. For whatever reason, I don't have any widgets for "ACF Relationship." Am I missing something? Thanks!

[@erichepperlewp]

Whoa! I thought it was just me and I've been googling and asking in the forums for days about this, with no good answers. Did I miss something here though? Paul usually goes out of his way to tell you what plugins you have to pay for --- I don't remember him mentioning there is *** NO FREE VERSION *** of _Dynamic Content for Elementor_

[@kevinkwasniok9340]

I have the same problem, have you found a solution yet?

[@pferrei]

Another great video. Thanks Paul I have one question: With ACF Pro (or other plugins) is it possible to have an "automatic relationship" based on a common taxonomy between 2 Custom Post Types instead of setting them up manually? (e.g., Doctors and Hospitals are CPTs that share a "location" Taxonomy. If I click on an Hospital can I automatically show a list of Doctors that are on that location?)

[@taskitvirtualsolutions]

In my head that’s how it should work, with the option to exclude CPTs if not relevant

[@SalimAlRashdi]

Thank you very much for this video. You really helped me. I just want to know how to display the relationship fields in archives?

[@GreggAbel81]

[@birdbrainsolutions6112]

I literally setup relationship fields for the first time just a few hours ago! lol Dynamic vs JetEngine vs Anywhere Elementor Pro. Which would you recommend for relationships and repeaters (edit: and custom post templates)? Thanks and great video as usual edit: I'd like to be able to display fields from the relationship posts easily. I'm using Dynamic right now, however it requires a bit of work with the text editor to be able to display multiple fields from the relationship post into the parent post template. [removed edit 2]: I updated the plugin and the template part works! Still would like to know your opinion on the above plugins

Good day to you! Thank you for this video. I am glad I found this. This is exactly what I need. However, I use the ACF by Elliot (free version; not the one mentioned in your video). I was able to follow the process up until choosing the posts (by author) I want for each post. Now, I am ready to design it on the Single Post but can't find the widget. Would you know the name of the widget for ACF or if they have a different process? Hoping to hear from you soon.

Hi Paul. You create outstanding content. It is really helpful and inspiring work. Just a small question for you: How can we relate a user with a custom post?

Another great one Paul! Thanks you! I’d love to see a slight alteration of this post where dealerships could create a profile and then post all their vehicles. Then, you could have a Dealership Page with a listing of all the vehicles they’ve posted right on that page. Thoughts?

[@WPTuts]

I can't see why that couldn't be achieved. I can't see why you couldn't add additional custom fields to a user to flesh out the business details and that would link the user to the custom post type for vehicles. This would allow for an easy way to either use WordPress or build out a custom user dashboard like covered in the video I released recently.

[@yegdigital]

@@WPTuts I watched the other video you released several times. I loved it! So helpful. I think in this case I'm wondering if there is an automated way to associate the vehicles to the dealership based on the author who created the posts? So for example, an author would have one dealership and multiple vehicles under that dealership.

Would it be possible to do a similar thing, but with the "portfolio" widget? Let's assume for example you had pages representing the add ons - mag wheels, leather seats, etc. But the selected vehicle only had a subset of all the available add ons for which you had pages. Could you use a template page for displaying the details of the vehicle, and then within the template include a portfolio widget (perhaps as a template page of its own) which would understand how to filter or query the available pages based on the car being shown in the main page?

[@ianforestdj]

I have a question about ACF relationships. I am creating a magazine website and I have 3 custom post types, "issues", "articles" and "reviews". If I create relationships in all of them, i've noticed that if I am creating and "issues" post and choose several articles and a few reviews, those linked posts are not mirrored when I look at those individual articles and reviews. Is there a setting i've maybe overlooked? I hope i've explained this properly.

[@TheNaturalEnquirer]

Is ACF Pro required for this to work or will the free ACF suffice? Paying $100 for ACF Pro and Dynamic Content for Elementor plugins seems expensive for me since I am only doing 1 or 2 websites. Are there alternative plugins to access the ACF relationship fields?

@@WPTuts I don't have ACF Pro but this functionaly seems to be working. At least partly because ACF Relationship widget (from Dynamic Content plugin) is working only with default wordpress posts and not with the ones I created using CPT UI. The same goes with the fields created using ACF (free version). You think I can expect these features to start working after updating to acf pro?

Hey Paul, great video as usual...! One thing I've not found in a relationship method is being able to order the outputted relationship posts ie. if you had 5 dealerships and you wanted to output them in alphabetical order instead of the order you added them to the parent. Looks like ACF relationships can't do this, and neither can JetEngine. Any thoughts on a plugin that does allow you to output your child posts in a specified order? Thanks again!
