I have a custom post type „Actors“. And I have pages, which I use for movies.
On the pages I have a repeater field, which I use to display the actors who act in the movies. The name of the repeater field is filmcast. In the sub field (relationship field) filmcast-person I grab the CPT “Actors” posts. So the movie pages and the CPT “Actors” posts are related via the repeater sub field/relationship field.
Example: On the movie page “Stagecoach” (title of the page) I grab the CPT post “John Wayne” (title of the post) in the repeater subfield (relationship field) filmcast-person to display John Wayne as one of the actors. This works perfectly.
Now on the CPT “Actors” post “John Wayne” I want to display all movies/pages (with title and thumbnail in a list ordered by date) in which he acts/which are related to him. This should work for all actors automatically by using the title ID of each actor post.
I tried to do that, following this forum posts: https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/topic/show-custom-field-results-from-one-post-type-in-template-of-another/
But it does not work. The CPT “Actor” posts are broken now and show nothing. I guess a messed it up.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Here’s my code:
<?php $i = 0; ?>
<?php
$posts = get_posts(array(
'post_type' => 'page',
'posts_per_page' => -1,
'meta_key' => 'filmcast-person',
'meta_value' => get_the_ID(),
'orderby' => 'date',
'order' => 'DESC'
));
?>
<?php if($i == 0) { echo '<div class="ci-filmcast-row">'; } ?>
<?php if( $posts ): ?>
<ul>
<?php foreach( $posts as $post ): setup_postdata( $post ); ?>
<div class="ci-image">
<?php the_post_thumbnail ( array (120, 140)); ?>
</div>
<div class="ci-title">
<a href="<?php echo get_permalink($post->ID); ?>">
<?php echo the_title($post->ID); ?></a>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
<?php $i++; if($i == 5) { $i = 0; echo '</div>'; } ?>
<?php if($i > 0) { echo '</div>'; } ?>
<?php endif; ?>
