Thank you Alex, and thank you Dirk, for all your input and feedback. That really helps to clarify.
Best,
UrsulaHi:
Thank you for your suggestions and recommendations.
I’m not totally clear by your statement: “…recommend keeping your Toolset strategy for relationships to start with a firm foundation as a relationship ‘pointing to’ GD listings…”
Does this mean you recommend keeping all the CPTs and Taxonomies in GD (then doing the relationships with Types, and logic with Views)?
Thanks.Wow, thank you for that, Alex.
So, I could then change the title “Places” to, say, “Business”, then use the Toolset Types.
1) Would I then need to add the Custom Fields and additional CPTs into GeoDirectory, (or into Toolset would be OK, too?), for GD to recognize it?
2) Since I believe I read somewhere that GD’s database setup is different than the standard WP database (please correct me if I’m mistaken on that), if I used Toolset’s Types, Forms, Layouts and Views, would that data be recognized by & submitted to GD’s database?
3) If I used Toolset’s Types/Forms/Layouts/Views as per my Ques#2, I gather it would be best to use that with the GD Framework Theme, which is the most basic and least coded?
4) Would the “Toolset combined with GD Framework Theme” transfer to v2 in tact?
Thanks.This reply has been marked as private.This reply has been marked as private.Hi:
I too am struggling to understand how CPTs linked to, say, the default CPT (Places listing/user) works.
1) If i understand correctly, when a CPT is linked it becomes a tab on the listing’s Detail page, and does not becomes an actual Detail page itself, correct?
2) Can one possibly link to multiple CPTs manually in the admin dashboard? (rather than automatically)?
3) Since currently a listing/User can only link to one other CPT, does that mean if a listing/User is linked to Events (a CPT), they can’t link to any other CPT?**I also put in my strong vote for having default CPT (places listing/user) be able to link to more than one CPT in v2.** Hopefully this feature will be available soon after it’s released.
Thanks for your help.
