Getting Field Values from a Connected CPT when using Meta Box Relationship in Bricks

This Pro tutorial provides the steps to conditionally render elements in a single template of a CPT depending on the value of a

1. regular custom field
2. subfield of a cloneable Group field

of a CPT connected to the current post via a Meta Box relationship.

Here's the scenario we are working with:

CPT 1: Award WinnerCPT 2: Property Development

Relationship: Award Winners -- Property Development

An Award Winner post will only be related/connected to one Property Development post at the most.

Custom fields for Property Development:

• property_development_nearby_institutions_option (Select field with these choices: Disabled and Enabled)
• property_development_facilities_group (Group field set to cloneable)
  • property_development_facility_name (Text subfield)

View/template in question: Single Award Winner post pages.

Requirements:

1. Create a custom function that returns the value of the given field of the Property Development post that's connected to the current Award Winner post.
2. Create a custom function that returns a boolean (true or false) depending on whether there is at least one row of the given subfield of the given group field of the Property Development post that's connected to the current Award Winner post.
