In my Facebook group a user asked:
I am working on a site that is linked to motor sports. They have CPT's for Team, Car and Drivers. I was looking to create a template for the team then have a easy post to show the cars relating to that team, I could then also use the same set up to display the drivers of the specific cars. as to the ACF field type I am at the early planning stages so can incorporate any type of field to make it all easier.
This members-only tutorial provides the steps to set up Advanced Custom Fields' Relationship field so site owners can manually select cars that are related to or belong to a specific team and to output them on single team pages using Easy Posts component's posts layout in Oxygen.
Note: The tutorial shows how PHP & HTML from Easy Posts can be used in a Code Block to make the output look like it's from Easy Posts. Easy Posts component itself will not be used.
Step 1
Create team
and car
Custom Post Types using a plugin like CPT UI.
Step 2
Add a new custom fields group named say, "Team Meta".
Add a relationship-type field named say, related_cars
.
Set the field group to appear on team
CPT entry edit screens.
Step 3
Add/edit Team entries and select 1 or more related cars where applicable.
Step 4
Create a Template for single Team entries.
Edit it with Oxygen.
Add a Section where you want to show related cars.
Add a Code Block inside.
