    Hi,

    I’ve started a discussion in the ‘How to’ forum yesterday:

    http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/152896/

    After some difficult examination and query’s I’ve finally managed to make ‘manual’ relationships between entries. Now, unfortunataly the {reverse_related_entries} tag doesn’t work, probably since I neglected the rel_data & reverse_rel_data fields.

    Any thoughts on how to fix this afterwards? Is there a maintanance routine I can run?

    thanks!

    I just discovered that editting + updating an entry does make it to appear as a related entry. But since I have 4.000 items, this is kind of a hassle to achieve. Anyway to automate editting + updating all items?

    Sorry… I made a mistake in updating the relationship tables. Forgot to add rel_type = ‘blog’ to the relationship!

    Problem solved!
