This Pro tutorial is similar to the recent ACF Relationship in Bricks using Posts Query Loop guide but for Meta Box.
In the past, we covered a somewhat custom requirement in the Meta Box Relationship in Bricks tutorial.
If your requirements are fairly standard, though, i.e., you are looking to show posts connected to a different CPT when viewing single posts of a particular CPT, a query type of your Meta Box relationship does the job. This feature is built into Bricks.
This tutorial covers a different method of showing related posts when using a Meta Box relationship with a posts query type.
A post of Game CPT:
On the front end:
'Review 3' post:
Step 1
Install and activate Meta Box and Meta Box AIO.
Create both your CPTs. In this example, these are game and review.
Add a few posts of each.
Step 2
Create a Relationship like this:
Step 3
Edit posts of any of your above CPTs and select connected items of the other post type.
Remember that in Meta Box, the relationship is bidirectional by default.
Step 4
Create a single Bricks template for your first CPT (game in the current example) and edit it with Bricks.
Add a template condition to make it apply to singular games.
Add a Section inside its Container, Post Title and Post Content elements.
Add another Section and inside its Container, a h2 Heading having "Related Review" text.
We shall programmatically append "s" to this heading text if there is more than 1 connected review.
Add a Container and inside it a Block. Enable query loop on the Block.
Set Post Type to Reviews.
Enable "Query editor (PHP)".
