Hi,

I have a custom post where I would like to choose Clients and related Contacts.
Clients are taxonomies, and Contact are custom post.

Which field I must choose for contacts ? How do I do to get the value once we’ve choose the client ?

Thanks !

Hi @eyediz_chloe

For a custom post type, you can use the post object field type. To show the value, please take a look at this page: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/post-object/.

I hope this helps 🙂

Hi James,

Thank you. But I don’t know the taxonomy before the user select it. So I could use the post object field type only if I can filter by taxonomy once the user selected the taxonomy..
Do you have a solution ?
