Unable to display relations in a category/taxonomy/archive page loop

It would be useful to post the entire template file, using https://pastebin.com

PS: p2p_each_connected() goes before The Loop.

Thanks Scribu, I’m a bit of a novice (but hopefully learning fast and have been able to achieve everything I wanted to do up to this point) so please excuse any horrors in the code!

Sorry, I should’ve said it’s the second loop I’m looking at here (the second half of the code)

Ah, well the problem is that p2p_each_connected() only affects the global WP_Query instance.

To handle custom instances, you would replace this:

$query = new WP_Query( array( 'malls' => 'dubai-mall', 'post_type' => 'shop' ) );

p2p_each_connected( 'any', 'offers', array(
        'post_type' => 'offer',
        'nopaging' => true,
) );

with this:

$query = new WP_Query( array(
  'malls' => 'dubai-mall',
  'post_type' => 'shop',
  'each_connected' => array(
        'post_type' => 'offer',
        'nopaging' => true,
  )
) );

and instead of $post->connected_offers, you would use $post->connected.

Thanks, I updated the code, however it still doesn’t quite work (probably me, rather than your code), I think it must be in the last section of the code which now reads:

if ( !empty( $post->connected) ) {
		echo '<h5>Connected Pages:</h5>';
		echo '<ul>';

		foreach ( $post->connected as $offer ) {
			setup_postdata( $offer );

			echo '<li>';
			the_title();
			echo '</li>';
		}

		wp_reset_postdata();

		echo '</ul>';
	}

(I also tried a few other variations based on the code here: https://scribu.net/wordpress/posts-to-posts but couldn’t get any output unfortunately)

I have pasted the whole code again here in case it helps (again it’s the second part only): https://pastebin.com/FT0KPbjB

I am sorry to keep bugging you about this one but do you have any other suggestions I could try? Must be almost there!

Thanks, I really appreciate your help

It looks ok now. The question is why you have almost the same code twice.

Remove the first part and you should be able to more easily see what the problem might be.

Thanks, I’ve tried a few things since your last post, some close to what you recommended, others further away, the closest I have been able to get so far is here:

https://pastebin.com/mc8QbDjM

Where for the first time it does display the relation, however it shows it on all posts instead of just the one that has the relation

I will keep trying but just thought I’d give you an update, as this seems to be getting closer at least

Thanks

Nick

Try calling wp_reset_postdata(); just before endwhile; too.

Hi Scribu

Thanks for all your help, just wanted to say I managed to do this in the end by using your updated tutorial on this page:

(Also posted for anyone else who comes across the same thing in future)

Thanks again

Nick
