When I first enabled the plugin, all the related entries stopped displaying on all my pages. I then applied the fix suggested by Leevi Graham. All my related entries are now displaying EXCEPT for the relationships set up with the multi-relationship field.
I tried adding the site name to the code in case it needed that, but this hasn’t helped either.
Sigh, I spoke too soon.
Neither Playa or MultiRelationship work. Playa displays the entries from the related weblog as a bulleted list with an add and remove button, but I can’t select anything to add and remove.
Back to adding Relationship 1, Relationship 2, Relationship 3 fields I guess!
Can I just make a request to the EE team that this multi relation plugin gets a mention in the user guide? Or could someone who can, add it to the User Contributed Notes?
I read the example (linked above) about the Night Club Owner wanting to post items that link to all his regular performers very carefully, and it seems to indicate to me, from the very start, that you or I, like he, would want to be linking to multiple entries. So the fact that this functionality has to be implemented by a plugin is really surprising!

It probably won’t get mention in the user guide simply because it is a third party add-on.
I’d like to ad my voice to the people experiencing problems when any parameters are added to the related entries tag. A couple different examples have already been noted, mine popped up when I tried to add “orderby=“date” sort=“desc”” to my tag and got the following error:
Notice: Undefined index: expertise_articles" orderby="date" sort="desc in /pathinfo/extensions/ext.multi_relationship.php on line 471
Notice: Undefined index: field_id_ in /pathinfo/extensions/ext.multi_relationship.php on line 478
If I take out the “orderby=“date” sort=“desc”” parameters the tag executes correctly.
We’re running 1.6.0 build 20070815. We are not running Multi-Site Manager. I tried Leevi Graham’s fix (thanks Leevi), but the error persisted. I’d appreciate any other ideas on a fix.
The error does not happen on reverse related entry calls, so if you can flip how the relationship is called you have some other options.
One question. Is there any way to implement a way to count the number of relations?
Specifically, I’m trying to do show a list of guests (for a radio program), but I want it to be in sentence format, with commas in the appropriate places. The code I’ve attempted is as follows:
Unfortunately, the count for every entry comes out to “1” - at least that’s what I get if I try {count}, so the above code always assumes each count equals the total results because the count and total results show up as “1” even if there are 2 or 15 guests.
Do you have any workarounds for this?
I’m having the same issue ... just want to know if anyone has a solution?
Just a quick note: on 1.6.4, PHP5 I got the {REL etc bug appear after I’d deleted one of the multi-related entries via the the control panel’s edit table. Seeing it I cleared the caches etc via utilities - no difference. But after going into the specific weblog entry that referenced the multi-relations (again via the edit table) and reselecting the multi-related items I wanted and hitting ‘update’ the {REL bug disappeared from my front end.
My guess is that somewhere (db probably) the multi-relationship field details aren’t being correctly updated by EE when actions like delete are applied.
Is there any way this relationship plugin can be used with the SAEF form? I have a nice application I would like to use, but I can’t edit this information through my form.
It’s not a relationship field, it’s not a text area, what is it, and how would I put this code into EE?
For those of you trying to figure out how to get count working, there’s a very simple fix.
The very last statement in the extension is
return $tagdata;
Right before that line, add this statement
unset($count);
Mark, please let us know if this is in any way a bad idea. For the time being, it looks like it’s working for me.
This doesn’t work for me on 1.6.4 and ext.multi-relation 1.0.6
I added the line in the extension file but the count still remains at “1” for all related entries.
Using MSM on 1.6.4, I can’t seem to get the multi-relationship entries to appear. There has to be something amiss with the way I’m linking, but everything appears to be correct. Has anyone had this issue - related entries not appearing in the template output - and been able to resolve it?
Best Regards,
Andres
Will there ver be an answer to the sort questions?
Is there a way to sort the multi_relation_entries? A hack for the extension? A way to get the results and sort them by myself.
Anyone, anyone, the class?
I would recommend using Playa over this, as you can change the sort order directly in the control panel. Is there a particular reason you’re still using this extension?
I was looking for a fast way to link some photos in a gallery to a weblog entry. I am very happy with EE but its a shame that this doesn’t work out of the box. The multirelation extension was the first I found. Can I use playa to link galleries?
